samixgon Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (December 2025)

an AI-native book reader that actually understands what you’re reading.

You highlight text, and the app infers intent and surfaces the right actions inline.

Examples:

Highlight a confusing paragraph → auto-suggests questions like “what does this term mean?” or “how does this relate to earlier chapters?”

Highlight a name → instant character context (no spoilers)

Highlight an argument → concise breakdown, assumptions, counterpoints

It works across EPUBs, PDFs, and papers, and the core rule is: AI should be assistive, never intrusive. No prompts required, no context switching.

Built it because I read a lot of dense material and hated breaking flow.

This is so cool!

I think Resume.Ink is different because it generates a new PDF resume tailored specifically to the job you're applying to. While JSON Resume generates a cover letter. I think they actually complement each other quite well.
