Show HN: Embedex – make your blog interactive with AI

9 points by BohdanPetryshyn 4 months ago · 4 comments · 2 min read

Hi HN! As someone who reads tons of blogs, I've always gravitated toward posts that let me click something, be it a simple quiz or even a mini-game or a simulation. There have never been many of such blogs since developing custom elements requires coding knowledge. I believe that's no longer the case in the AI era.

I'm building a tool that allows you to create any interactive embed you can imagine by simply chatting with AI:

* A quiz of any format and outcome: https://embedex.io/blog-demo#quiz-ai

* A working drum machine: https://embedex.io/blog-demo#drum-machine

* An investment calculator: https://embedex.io/blog-demo#investment-calculator

* A custom draw-a-circle game: https://embedex.io/blog-demo#draw-circle-game

The embeds work with WordPress, Ghost, Wix, Squarespace, Blogger.com, and most other blogging platforms - just copy and paste the embed code into an HTML/embed block.

The idea was inspired by Claude Artifacts, and I think there are still many blogging-specific features and improvements that can be implemented to make it a useful standalone product.

You (or your blogger friends) can use Embedex completely for free while I continue improving it in exchange for some feedback.
