Human Focused AI

Hey Product Hunt! 👋 It's been a while since I last launched something here and I can't lie, I'm nervous as hell! Today, however, I am not launching a business venture, but a free product I have poured my soul in. It's a bot that scans the web and reports any content that is dangerous for people with photosensitive epilepsy to view 🤖 Story 📕 In 2019 I stumbled upon an article that stated that a famous NYT journalist was attacked and suffered a seizure because someone on Twitter intentionally sent him a dangerous, animated GIF. After seeing that nothing exists to help people with photosensitive epilepsy online, I decided to build something myself. Long story short, after three crazy months of coding I had a chrome extension that worked like an AdBlocker. It scans the HTML and blocked any dangerous piece of content before even seeing it. However, v1 ultimately failed 🤖 - People had to find out about the product - People had to understand what it does - People had to understand what a browser extension was - Because every client would ping the API multiple times per second, the servers would constantly crash and I had to add a $5/mo price tag - People had to install it on their browser - It couldn't work on mobile apps All of the above created too much friction for it to work. I am not funded or affiliated with any organization, non profit or corporation. It's just me by myself! So, let me introduce v2 now! 🤖 - Scans the web by itself - Scans the few most popular websites (Instagram, TikTok, Twitter, Facebook, etc) that amount to almost 90% of the internet's web traffic - Instantly reports dangerous content No need for anyone to know about it. No need for installation. It just works for millions of people. And it's free. What's next 🔥 1. Open source the code 2. Find contributors to build more accessibility tools, like for people that suffer from blindness, deafness, Parkinson's, etc I will be here all day so if you have any questions, let me know!

Such a great thought behind the product. I sincerely hope this product reaches out to masses and achieve its objective. Best of luck!

Interesting application of AI. Kudos to the team for launching it!! Need more such products

Best of luck with the launch! 🚀🚀
