Eyeball is an indie tool that fights AI hallucination in document analysis by embedding inline screenshots of the actual source passages alongside each AI-generated claim. When you analyze a PDF or document with Eyeball, the output is a Word doc where every statement has a highlighted screenshot of the precise text it came from — because screenshots are harder to hallucinate than quotes. The tool emerged from a simple observation: AI systems routinely fabricate citations and misquote sources, and quote-only verification still requires humans to manually hunt down the original text. Eyeball short-circuits that by attaching the visual evidence directly to each claim in the output document. Legal, compliance, and research reviewers can audit AI outputs at a glance rather than cross-referencing. Built in Python, Apache 2.0 licensed, launched as a Show HN six days ago and gaining traction. The approach is low-tech by design — no vector embeddings, no proprietary API calls — just precise text highlighting, screenshot capture, and Word document assembly. The simplicity is the point: verifiable AI outputs shouldn't require a research budget.

Mo
GitHub bot that flags PRs conflicting with decisions made in Slack

Mo is a GitHub PR governance bot with a genuinely narrow and original focus: it enforces team decisions made in Slack, not code quality. The workflow is simple — tag @mo in any Slack thread to approve a decision, and Mo stores it. When a PR opens, Mo diffs the changes against every stored team decision and flags conflicts directly in the PR review. It ignores style, linting, security, and complexity — just alignment with what the team actually agreed to build. The problem it solves is real and under-addressed: engineering teams make architectural and product decisions in Slack threads that evaporate from institutional memory within days. Six months later, a new engineer ships something that contradicts a decision nobody remembers. Mo creates a lightweight, searchable decision audit trail and connects it to the code review gate where it can actually matter. Built by Oscar Caldera (ex-agency founder, Motionode), Mo topped Product Hunt's developer tools chart on April 8 with 85 upvotes. It occupies a genuinely different niche from GitHub Copilot, Reviewpad, and other review automation tools — none of which track team decisions as a first-class concept.
Reviewer scorecard
“This is the kind of clever, unglamorous tool that actually solves a real problem. The insight that screenshots are harder to hallucinate than quotes is simple but profound. Drop this into any pipeline that serves legal or compliance users immediately.”
“The scope is exactly right: one job, done well. Architectural drift from forgotten Slack decisions is a real and expensive problem. A bot that sits in the merge gate and catches those conflicts before they ship is worth setting up in any team above five engineers.”
“Screenshots of source text don't prevent the underlying problem — an AI can still misinterpret or misconstrue what the screenshot says. It adds friction to the review process without fixing the root cause. Useful for basic verification but don't mistake it for a hallucination solution.”
“Decision quality is only as good as the decisions teams choose to log. In practice, tagging @mo for every meaningful decision requires behavior change that most teams won't sustain. And diff-based conflict detection on natural language decisions is prone to false positives that create noise and get ignored.”
“Provenance-by-design is going to be mandatory for AI in regulated industries. Eyeball's approach — baking visual evidence into every claim — points toward a future where AI outputs are self-auditing. This is an indie tool today; it's a compliance standard in three years.”
“Team memory as a first-class software engineering concept is underbuilt. Most of our tooling is around code review, not decision review. Mo is an early prototype of what 'organizational memory infrastructure' looks like when it's native to the workflow rather than a wiki nobody reads.”
“For editorial and research work, knowing exactly where an AI got its information is table stakes. Eyeball makes that process visual and immediate — that's a huge quality-of-life improvement for anyone who fact-checks AI-generated research.”
“For design-engineering teams, this solves a constant pain point: design decisions made in Figma comments or Slack that get overridden in implementation. If Mo can log those decisions and catch conflicts at PR time, it's worth integrating.”
