Side project - so don’t really actively market it, but it’s been my daily driver for over a year now

Ended up building: https://crom.ai/

Here is a little write-up / more details on how it's built: https://notes.rolandpeelen.com/notes-on-building-crom

Started out with an idea over the holidays to start building a system that creates daily digests of content I follow as a podcast, such that I can listen to it when commuting.

The first one is one that takes the top articles of HN in the last 24 hours and builds them into a podcast. It took forever to tweak it in such a way that it doesn't sound 100% AI, isn't too sensational, but also not extremely boring. I've been tweaking over the past weeks to get it just right and I'm pretty happy with what comes out of it now. I've just submitted / got them all up and running on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and so kind of - launching it?

- Apple Podcasts link: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/hackernews-daily/id179...

- Spotify Link: https://open.spotify.com/show/6WQFgIvfC2NiMCFRINre5P?si=3f71...

I have some future ideas that would make this even better for me - Build more shows like this (next is probably a daily digest of news in and around Amsterdam - as I live there). Possibly in such a way that you could create a tailor made podcast. Like, 3 HN articles, Weather in Amsterdam, and 2 Amsterdam news articles, or something like that. - Build some integrations, so it can be a bit more personal. Like, my current location for the weather, or maybe even my calendar for a personalized intro message.

Would love to hear your questions, thoughts, ideas, and things that can be improved!

We have some basic docs at docs.konfig.xyz - which need some love, but happy to help anyone get up and running :)

The main use case are fixed-in-size products that can be customize-able. So colours and materials, but also swapping one object for another, or turning one on or off (imagine rims on a car, or a bow thruster on a boat).

We tried saas’in it completely, but the onboarding is proving to be quite hands-on. So we’ve partnered with a 3d firm that does the 3d work so we can focus ok building software

The idea is that you get a daily for every day, with the items ticked off on the last day removed. So a new daily every day. At the same time, there is some integration with AI to get feedback on things to break down. You can give it some instructions, focus, and also tune the amount of feedback.

I've had this in so many incarnations before, but never made it 'properly'. It's a pet project, but do want to release it at some point.

I'm adding people to the beta bit-by-bit.
