PDF Pals: Instantly chat with any PDF on your Mac. 53% off Black Friday

PDF Pals is a native macOS application that allows you to chat with any PDF documents on your Mac without the need for uploading or file size limitations.

It's the only one that allows you to use your own API key. Instead of paying $20/mo for ChatGPT plus, or $15+/mo for other web-based products, you pay a one-time license and use the app forever.

I believe AI will become a commodity, just like email. You should not have to pay a monthly fee to be able to use AI. Instead, you pay the AI service providers directly.

PDF Pals supports OpenAI, Azure OpenAI and OpenRouter.

It also use a powerful OCR engine to handle scanned PDFs and complex forms effectively.

BoltAI — A beautiful & powerful ChatGPT app for Mac

​

I believe BoltAI is the ChatGPT app with the best UI/UX on the market. Unlike other competitors, I build BoltAI with a great attention to detail. The UI is clean, snappy while still has tons of features.

BoltAI is the only app that supports all these 3 modes:

• Beautiful Chat UI: clean and beautiful, with a mac-native look & feel. It supports AI Image Generation using Dall E & Stable Diffusion (via Replicate). In the latest version, I've added support for Text-to-speech & GPT-4 Vision. It also supports GPT plugins like web search and web browsing.
• Powerful AI Command: similar to Raycast/Spotlight style. You can select text, press a shortcut key, and choose/type a command
• Intuitive Inline Mode: trigger AI directly inside any mac app

It also supports other AI services like Anthropic Claude, Azure OpenAI Service and OpenRouter. Supporting local open-source models is in development.

Other features include: built-in prompt library management, multiple AI Assistants (similar to GPTs), appearance customization, powerful keyboard shortcuts…

I’m Daniel Nguyen. Last year I quit my consulting job to start indie hacking.

The idea of KTool first came to my mind when I was reading "Ask HN: I'm a software engineer going blind, how should I prepare?" on Hacker News.

I've been wearing glasses since I was 5. My right eye is blind. Doctors said there is no chance to cure it.

I was genuinely scared. Like holy crap, if my left eye stops working, my life is done. Since then I've been very conscious about time spent on computer screens.

That's when I started using Kindle-related products: to offload as many reading materials as possible to the Kindle. Then I ran into multiple limitations, leading me to build KTool, a tool to send your favorite online content to Kindle: blog posts, Twitter threads, Hacker News discussions, RSS feeds, newsletters...

I didn't start it immediately. In the beginning, I tried to validate the idea by asking on Reddit. And the initial idea was a macOS app to send PDF & EPUB to Kindle. But after building it in public on Twitter, it's clear to me that people won't pay for it. So I kinda pivot into sending articles & Twitter threads to Kindle and got much better traction.

After 18 months it’s currently at $1,000 MRR with minimal maintenance cost. I spend maybe 4-5 hours per month on it.

Thank you 😊

Spending too much time on “preparation”. Stop reading more business book and just start the damn thing ffs

I’ve been growing all these products:

• BoltAI: a ChatGPT app for Mac

No. You can apply for the “micro transaction” tier where the fee is lower than 10% for small amount
