AI Pulse

About AI Pulse

AI Pulse is a local app that runs on your laptop and produces a daily briefing on what's happening at the frontier of AI. It pulls from free sources — arXiv, Hacker News, Reddit, GitHub Trending, curated blogs, and X accounts via Nitter — and uses Claude to curate, synthesize, and generate project and business ideas.

How it works

  1. Fetcher — pulls raw items from all sources daily at 7am
  2. Curator — ranks, dedupes, and clusters items into themes
  3. Blogger — writes a synthesis post per theme cluster
  4. Projector — generates 1-3 project ideas per cluster
  5. Businessman — adds a business angle to each project

Running it manually

curl -X POST http://localhost:4000/run

Checking status

curl http://localhost:4000/status

Data sources

Edit the JSON files in the data/ directory to customize which sources, RSS feeds, X handles, and subreddits are fetched.

Cost

AI Pulse uses your existing Claude Code subscription — no separate API key needed. Claude Code's built-in tools handle all web search and fetching.
