Show HN: Sheetdoku – A logic puzzle where Sudoku meets spreadsheets
hi! I've been working on a logic puzzle game called Sheetdoku and would love some feedback on it. The game is inspired by Sudoku and spreadsheet formulas and the puzzles use formulas like SUM, MIN, MAX, RANGE etc to constraint the 5x5 grid further.
Game Rules: - Fill the grid with numbers 1 through N. - Each number must appear exactly once in each row and column (similar to Sudoku). - The grid also includes regions with mathematical constraints that must be satisfied.
You can try it in the browser here: https://sheetdoku.com
Thanks for checking it out!

Ask HN: Am I making something people want? (OpenRouter with prompt A/B testing)
I've realized I spend a lot of time hardcoding LLM prompt tweaks and trying to determine their effectiveness from a bit of personal testing. I spend a lot of time fiddling and making not informed decisions.
I've been working on an API that runs one of X number of prompts, and can be sent back a good or bad score based on some user interaction. I can see which prompt wins and make them the dedicated prompt, or add new test ones.
This has been big for me, but does anyone else want this? I'll probably continue to scratch my own itch, but is it worth making it accessible with user accounts, billing, etc?

Show HN: A platform that analyzes research papers for commercial potential
Hi, first time poster here.
I browse arXiv a lot and decided to make this platform that automatically pulls papers from arXiv and uses AI to highlight how they could be used in real-life applications or for commercial purposes. The free version shows reports for papers from the most recent day (usually yesterday). The standard version gives you access to reports for all of the papers that have been analyzed so far, which as of writing this is about 5000 papers (it is growing by about 600-800 every day).
Hope it's helpful to some of you - and if you have any feedback I'd love to hear it.
