Show HN: Sleuth, open source workspace search in natural language Hey everyone, We know how hard it can be to ramp up and learn the ins and outs of a new company. - “Who should I talk to about customer onboarding?” - “What was that project the onboarding team shipped in June, that had a massive impact on step 3 completion rate?” Instead of asking someone the same question that’s been asked hundreds of times before, it’s more efficient to find answers in existing documents and past conversations. The problem is, this data is spread out across dozens of workplace apps, with search features that all work differently. That’s why we’ve created Sleuth, an open source library that allows you to search through your company’s entire history using natural language. It understands the intent of your question, not just the keywords. Here’s a demo: https://ift.tt/Z8AKBLr You can fork our repo ( https://ift.tt/rBCzyH4 ) and try it right now, or book a 15 min call ( https://ift.tt/4cDgLGX ) with us to share your feedback. How does it work? Vector embeddings are generated for slack messages using OpenAI’s text-embedding-ada-002 model and stored in a Pinecone vector database for easy querying. How is this different from Glean? Glean is great, but we wanted to introduce a product that anyone can fork, use, and customize without ever talking to a sales team. Building in public makes for better products. What integrations do you support? Just Slack to start. What other integrations would you like to see? https://www.getsleuth.xyz/ January 13, 2023 at 01:40AM

Adeline “Addy” Svendsen was founding editor of Muni’s first internal newsletter, “ Trolley Topics .” Adeline Svendsen sits at her desk in the Geneva Carhouse office building in this 1949 shot. Trolley Topics was a new venture when it started in February 1946. As Svendsen wrote in the first issue it was created, “to bring a little fun, a little news, and a lot of good will to all our fellow employees in the Railway.” Just two years prior in 1944, Muni merged with the Market Street Railway Company, expanding the small municipal operation into the largest transit provider in the city with hundreds of employees, vehicles of every shape and size, and dozens of facilities scattered across town. The newsletter was meant to help unite ...
