Show HN: Callhackernews.com – The missing voice interface for Hacker News

[xathis]

Hey there HN! I believe the future of AI communication will be more voice and less text. Low-latency realistic voice interactions are finally becoming feasible.

I've built a few voice-first apps on Retell AI using Elevenlabs voices. This one uses Claude Haiku for responses and Mixtral to switch between posts and comments.

The AI knows about the top 30 posts and their comments on Hacker News right now.

After a Google sign-in you can try it free for 10 minutes. I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Friendly feedback:

Please work a bit on your landing page. Doesn’t have to be pretty, just more informative.

I was utterly confused when I directly opened the link without going into the comments (as I very often do with Show HN).

I can see myself using this in car while driving to work. interesting. How expensive is this btw? and will you open source?

[xathis]

Voice is pretty expensive unfortunately. We pay around $10 cents per minute for the voice interaction. LLM calls not included.

Can you just use the browser text-to-speech API?

very stunning to see LLMs technological capabilities. What a nice piece of work!
