StoreLocale
AI summary StoreLocale is a new tool that finds text within App Store and Google Play screenshots and translates it into 32 languages. It redraws the app interface in the target language while preserving the original layout, addressing cases where only the caption around an image gets translated. Users can check each output and then download PNG files sorted by language, size and store. The makers are asking for input on translation quality and on which languages are most in demand.
Smart Jelly
AI summary Nishant, founder of Smart Jelly, has released a Mac app that bundles dictation, meeting notes, live meeting assistance and agents around a single shared memory. He says he built it after paying for separate AI apps that could not exchange context. The memory system took six months to develop, scores 87.6% on the BEAM-100K benchmark, is stored encrypted on the user's Mac and can be reviewed, corrected or deleted. Meeting notes are taken without a bot joining calls, and the app can be started for free.
Kin
AI summary Kin, a new release from developer Troy, sits between AI assistants and services like Gmail, GitHub and Stripe, letting users mark each action as Allow, Ask me or Block. Requests can be approved from a phone, and because credentials remain encrypted, the AIs never see any passwords or keys. Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini and other assistants are supported. Users in the US and 33 more countries can try Pro for 7 days without entering a card, though the Free tier isn't available in Europe yet.

OpenLLM
AI summary Jonathan, a co-founder of OpenLLM, has launched a service that combines a user's AI subscriptions, API keys and local models behind one key usable in coding agents such as Codex, Cursor and Claude Code. It can switch to the next model in a user-set order when a limit is reached, offers remote sessions on a home machine and a shared memory across apps, and includes free DeepSeek and Qwen inference. The tool runs on macOS and Linux, is free to start, and charges $30 per month for Pro covering up to 5 devices. He says it runs vendors' official CLIs locally, does not share accounts, and that vendor limits and terms still apply.

Survival LLM: AI assistant and emergency library that runs on your own computer
AI summary Survival LLM is a free, open-source assistant for Mac and Windows that works offline once installed, answering questions on topics like first aid and water purification from a local library. The library includes FEMA and CDC guidance, military survival manuals and roughly 930,000 Wikipedia articles, and each answer links to the passages it used. The full library is a 9 GB download (19 GB installed), and the app picks an AI model based on the computer's memory. On a MacBook Pro it drew about 100 W per answer, letting a full battery handle roughly 100 to 300 questions.
