Our new API lets you integrate Pace to your current tools. We use it to post a message every time we deploy a new version :) Check out the docs: https://pace.dev/docs/

We wanted to add search to our pm tool, which we host on app engine (backed by Google Cloud Firestore).
We missed the Google App Engine Search API that they deprecated, and we didn't want to manage and maintain other servers, security, storage, etc. Firebase doesn't offer a search solution.
So we built Firesearch.
It runs in Cloud Run, connects to your Firestore backend, and scales to 0...

Simple, powerful API for full-text search on Google Cloud with range of client libraries. Runs at global scale.
Perfect for ecommerce product search (with filters), autocomplete, document search, etc. Uses ML to intelligently rank results.

Not another project management tool, surely? :)
We wanted a tool that let us organise our work and communicate asynchronously, without all the complexity and bloat of JIRA.
We have also innovated on capabilities that we hadn't seen before, like screen-recording right from the comments box, and our Showcase feature which puts the focus on progress, rather than forcing people to guess (or...

Pace offers a refreshing alternative to bloated software (ahem, JIRA) and tools that encourage interruption culture (A-slack-oo, excuse me) allowing teams to stay organized without forcing them to use awful, ugly, bloated apps.

Videobox from Machine Box is a Docker container that runs videos through other Machine Box boxes (face recognition, image recognition, and nudity detection). The results are collated into an easy to understand JSON format, that’s optimized for common use cases.
