Show HN: PomeloAPI – one key for 25 AI models

soGeneri — Tue, 01 Jul 2025 12:07:21 +0000

PomeloAPI lets you swap between GPT-4, Claude 3, FLUX images, ElevenLabs speech and more with a single REST call. One schema, one bill, no vendor lock-in.

What it is:

• One REST endpoint that speaks to GPT-4, FLUX, ElevenLabs, Kling, Veo and more.

• A consistent request+response schema, so you can swap models without rewriting code.

• Usage-based billing that tracks each model’s native price. Pay only for what your app calls.

Why bother:

Every provider ships a different SDK, authentication method and pricing unit. If you want to experiment, run A/B tests or add fallbacks, the glue code piles up fast. PomeloAPI hides that complexity. Call /v1/task, set model to whatever you need and ship.

Typical use cases:

• Content marketing: generate articles, social posts and ad copy in one pipeline.

• Product design: create mock-ups with FLUX images, then refine UI text with a chat model.

• Data analysis: summarize PDFs, extract entities and draft reports from the same job.

• Voice features: text-to-speech or speech-to-text with ElevenLabs using the very same auth token.

Example:

curl -X POST https://www.pomeloapi.com/api/v1/task \ -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"model":"gpt-4","messages":[{"role":"user","content":"Hello"}]}'

Working on a side project but feeling stuck? Whether it’s finding an audience, getting feedback, or just staying motivated, the struggle is real. That’s why I put together Awesome Launch: a curated list of resources to help makers, indie hackers, and solo builders turn ideas into reality.

It includes:

•Communities to share and get feedback

•Growth and marketing guides

•Funding and monetization resources

•Learning materials from successful founders

It’s free, open-source, and constantly growing. Would love to hear what’s helped you the most in launching your projects—or what’s missing that should be added.

I don’t think starter story fits into the spirit of this list. Seems like a paid product?

This can be extended to include what you’re talking about. Do you have a list in mind?

Show HN: PennyPixel – A public graffiti board for charity

soGeneri — Wed, 15 Jan 2025 13:45:08 +0000

I’ve been working on a fun little side project called Penny Pixel. It’s a real-time collaborative pixel art platform where you can team up with others to create artwork, and the funds raised go to charity.

The basics: * Everyone starts with 100 free pixels to place on a shared canvas. * After that, each pixel costs $0.01. * At the end of each month, the community votes on which charity receives the funds, and the final artwork is gifted to them.

I built this as a way to combine art, tech, and giving back.

I’d love for you to check it out and let me know what you think! What’s missing? What would make it better?

Appreciate any feedback or ideas for improvement!
