Show HN: An alternative to regular 'Contact Us' form to understand custom needs
Hi HN, I built customform.ai that dynamically generates questions to progressively refine customer requirements and enhance lead qualification. I found this need through chatting with manufacturers on Alibaba, who often encounter customers with requests that fall outside their production capabilities, leading to inefficiencies. After developing Customform.ai, I onboarded several manufacturers as initial users. Given its effectiveness, I'm curious about its potential applications in other industries. Could this tool be beneficial elsewhere? any suggestions or insights?

Show HN: Fragaria – From 'R's in Strawberry to Complex Problem-Solving AI
I'm excited to share Fragaria, an open-source project that brings advanced AI reasoning capabilities to developers and researchers. Named after the botanical genus of strawberries (a nod to the classic "How many 'r's in strawberry?" problem), Fragaria is designed to tackle both simple queries and complex logical puzzles with increasing efficiency over time. Here are some features!
* Multi-Provider Support: Seamlessly switch between OpenAI, Groq, and Together.ai as LLM providers. * Chain of Thought (CoT) Reasoning: Break down complex problems into step-by-step solutions. * Reinforcement Learning: Continuously improve problem-solving strategies through a novel approach combining CoT and RL. * Adaptive Learning: Utilize a SQLite-based scoring system to remember and refine successful strategies. * Easy Integration: RESTful API with OpenAI-compatible endpoints for drop-in replacement in existing projects.
What makes Fragaria unique:
* More than just another LLM wrapper. Fragaria implements a sophisticated reasoning process that grows more efficient with each solved problem. * The combination of CoT and RL allows Fragaria to develop novel problem-solving approaches that weren't explicitly programmed. * It's designed for researchers to easily experiment with different CoT strategies and RL algorithms. The project includes a sleek Svelte-based demo interface for easy visualization of the reasoning process.
I built Fragaria to explore the intersection of language models, reasoning, and reinforcement learning.

Show HN: React SaaS – Boilerplate with automated setup of dev/prod environments
After accidentally nuking the production database of my last side project, I wished I had used dev/prod environments with automated DB backups.
When I looked for a SaaS template to start over with integrated dev/prod environments, I couldn’t find one. So I decided to build it myself.
To help speed up the setup, I also built Bash and PowerShell scripts to guide users through the process.
The current stack is Next.js, Firebase, and Stripe. However, I’m considering writing some Terraform modules for GCP resources to further speed up setup and provide more flexibility for power users.
Would love to get your feedback!
