What if your everyday texts were actually a love story?
I built Between Us (https://love-between-us.replit.app/), where you upload your WhatsApp chat export and it transforms your raw message history into a beautiful, shareable one-pager celebrating your relationship.
The result is a unique URL you can send to your person. A love letter written by your own conversations.
Huge shoutout to Wispr Flow - It just works out of the box, super intuitive, strips out all the ums and ahs, and reformats everything cleanly. It lets you think out loud without friction. This is staying in my daily workflow well beyond this hackathon.
The stack: Replit, Figma, OpenAI's API and Gemini for image gen.

Every year we buy gifts we know are bad.
We smile.
They lie.
The cycle continues.
I built The Anti-Gift Guide (https://anti-gift-guide.replit.app/) to end this.
You answer a few uncomfortable questions about the person you’re shopping for, get assigned a toxic persona, and receive a list of things you absolutely should not buy them...if you want to remain friends.
Built with:
- @Replit for the app
- @Suno for mildly annoying festive audio
- @Tolstoy for the product image template
Use at your own risk 👉 https://anti-gift-guide.replit.app/
(Speakers on for extra magic)
Side note: Replit handled the entire build without complaint, which is more than I can say for most tools. And Suno’s v5 model is alarmingly good for the speed it produces results.

Most AI tools are sycophants. They tell you everything looks great, even when it doesn't.
So I built Red Flag Resume - a tool that gives you the brutally honest feedback recruiters won't. No sugarcoating. Just the red flags and real fixes.
First time using YouWare and as a UX designer, I was impressed. The designs came out polished and thoughtful, not the usual AI output.

I have ADHD and struggle to cook without getting overwhelmed…
so I created Simmer.
Simmer turns chaotic online recipes into calm, step-by-step instructions you can actually follow. One clear action at a time - no rushing, no stress.
This was also my first time using Anything, and wow. It handled multiple tasks in one go, tracked its own to-do list, let me revert versions instantly, and even rendered a real app from my first prompt.
And building anywhere, anytime is a game changer (bonus photo attached of me starting the build on my phone while cooking)

Let me know what you think! 😊

I built BookVibes (https://<https://218959c65aee46fba5a8da7df2445a55-main.projects.builder.my/>), a tool that takes your Spotify playlist URL and recommends books that match the vibe. Think: late-night indie playlist → cozy mystery novels. Upbeat pop hits → fun rom-coms.
A few things that blew my mind about Fusion:
· As a designer, the Figma integration is chef's kiss.
· Easy, one-click version restore was such a relief.
· It literally QA'd itself. The tool screenshots its own output and checks if the layout matches what it was supposed to build. Wild...I'm still not over this!!
This is my first time putting something I've built out into the world, so I'm equal parts excited and terrified. Be kind! 🙈
Try out BookVibes and let me know what you think.
