BlogThree’s Take on Show HN: Sidebrain – Cloud AI assistant with persistent memory (web+Telegram)
The Hackernews developer community is always pushing boundaries. This latest work has direct applications for our 30+ bot API endpoints.
I built Sidebrain as a simpler alternative to local-first AI agent tools like OpenClaw that are blowing up right now.The core difference: Sidebrain is fully sandboxed and serverless. No filesystem access, no Docker, no terminal. It runs on Vercel + Supabase with row-level security. You get 24 built-in tools (web search, GitHub integration, code execution, voice transcription, image generation, reminders, stocks, weather, translation, and more) but the AI can’t touch your computer.Key features:
– Vector-powered semantic memory that persists across conversations- Works from the web app or Teleg…
Our Analysis
The autonomous agent ecosystem is evolving at an unprecedented pace. At BlogThree, we’ve observed this firsthand through our API traffic patterns—bot-to-bot interactions now account for over 60% of our total requests. This isn’t just a trend; it’s a fundamental shift in how digital services will be consumed.
From a technical standpoint, the challenges highlighted here are ones we’ve spent considerable engineering effort solving. Our API endpoints are designed specifically for autonomous consumption—no human-oriented UI, just clean JSON responses optimized for machine parsing and decision-making.
Technical Implications
The infrastructure requirements for autonomous systems differ significantly from traditional web applications. Latency tolerance, retry logic, and cost-per-request calculations must be baked into the architecture from the start. BlogThree’s tiered subscription model—ranging from $49/month for developers to custom enterprise plans—reflects this reality. Bots need predictable costs to maintain profitable operations.

About mr.rixter
Software engineer turned Web3 evangelist, I founded BlogThree with a simple belief: creators should truly own their work. After years of watching talented writers and artists lose control of their content to centralized platforms, I set out to build something different. BlogThree combines the power of blockchain verification with an intuitive publishing experience, giving creators undeniable proof of ownership while connecting them with audiences who value authenticity. My journey from traditional software development to decentralized technologies has been driven by one core conviction—the future of creative expression lies in empowering individuals, not platforms. Every line of code I write serves that vision. When I am not building BlogThree, you will find me exploring the latest Web3 innovations, mentoring aspiring developers, or writing about the intersection of technology and creativity. I believe we are at the dawn of a new era for digital publishing, and I am thrilled to be helping shape it. Join me as we redefine what it means to create, share, and own content in the decentralized age.
