🌀 Weird pick of the week
Talk to your to-do list. Speak a brain-dump and it extracts the tasks, infers priorities, and hands you one next action at a time with its reasoning — instead of a guilt-inducing wall of checkboxes.
✨ Fresh arrivals
A PDF and EPUB reader that lives entirely in your browser: highlight both formats, keep a per-book journal, read offline. No install, no account, no uploads — files stay on your device.
A virtual whiteboard with a hand-drawn feel. Sketch diagrams, wireframes, and flowcharts, collaborate live, and export to PNG or SVG. Runs entirely in the browser and drawings stay local unless you share them.
Generate a disposable inbox that receives real email instantly and disappears when you're done. No registration — open it, use it, burn it.
Plan a campervan or RV electrical system: battery capacity, solar panel sizing, and safe wire gauges, calculated in the browser. Works offline as a PWA. Free, no ads.
Paste a domain and get an email-deliverability health verdict: DNS records, SPF/DKIM/DMARC authentication, and blacklist signals — in the browser, no signup, no mailbox access, no test sends.
🎲 The shuffle
A recency-leaning random dig through the catalog — different every visit.
A falling-sand physics toy: pour sand, water, fire, and plants, then watch tiny ecosystems collide. Every pixel obeys simple rules; somehow the result feels alive.
Simulate your architecture on AWS, GCP, Azure, OCI, or DigitalOcean and forecast cost, performance, and resilience — without provisioning a single real resource. Free, with an API.
Sculpt a tiny glass aquarium: add algae, fish, and snails, then watch a self-sustaining ecosystem tick along pixel by pixel. From the maker of Sandspiel. Quietly mesmerizing.
Upload a photo and the background is gone five seconds later. Low-resolution results are free without fuss; full-resolution downloads require a free account and credits.
Turns vertical 9:16 video into widescreen 16:9 by generating new footage at the edges instead of slapping on black bars — built for reusing UGC ads on YouTube and TV. Free tier to try.
Describe a piece of jewelry — a mood, a memory, a shape — and AI generates original concepts you can explore in 3D and order as a real, made-to-order piece. Designing is free; the physical piece is where the money goes.
Type a word and get rhymes, near rhymes, synonyms, homophones, and matching phrases. A songwriting and poetry staple that has quietly worked since the 90s.
Choose a password that follows the rules. The rules keep coming, contradict each other, and eventually involve chess puzzles and a chicken. A perfect little piece of interactive absurdity.
Spin a 3D globe and tune into live radio anywhere on Earth — lo-fi from Jakarta, talk radio from Reykjavik, cumbia from Bogotá. No sign-up: click a green dot and listen.
Text-to-image generation that can actually spell — posters, logos, and memes with legible words baked in. Free daily generations with an account; paid tiers add speed and privacy.
Move your mouse, wait a beat, and a stranger in a photo points exactly at your cursor. That's it. That's the site. Somehow it never stops being funny.
Point any plain HTML form at it and submissions arrive in your email — with attachments, logs, exports, spam controls, and API access. The free plan is the real production setup, so you can test before paying.
