Sensible is an API-first document processing platform that streamlines data extraction for developers and product teams.
We're looking for an experienced Product Marketer to join our growing team. As a product marketer, you will lead core product marketing initiatives, build awareness with our target market, and generate inbound leads for our sales team.
This role requires a mix of creative and quantitative thinking. You'll develop a product messaging and positioning framework that resonates with developers and presents our products in ways that increase Sensible’s ACV.
Ultimately, you will drive awareness, product adoption and revenue growth. This position reports to the Head of Marketing.
Sensible is a remote-first company and this role is open to anyone located in North or South America. We provide competitive compensation and meaningful equity.
Sensible connects software to the messy, unstructured data that businesses encounter every day. Our goal is to bring about a world where computers do the work that computers are best at (processing large volumes of data) so that humans can do what humans are best at (critical thinking and empathy).
The first piece of this problem that we're tackling is document parsing. Even as software is eating the world, so many business workflows still rely on two entities sending PDFs to each other. In a single afternoon with Sensible, developers can ship a production-ready API endpoint that turns documents into useful data.
Sensible was founded in 2020 and is backed by some of the top investors in Silicon Valley. https://www.sensible.so/about

As a senior infrastructure engineer, you’ll work closely with our head of engineering and the engineering team to improve and expand our AWS-based infrastructure, working with technologies like Lambda, DynamoDB, S3, and IAM, to support our production APIs and web app. Outside of AWS we integrate with Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, and OpenAI. We have a strong testing culture to support our overall reliability, as well as SLAs for our enterprise customers.

You might be a fit if...
- You have 5+ years of experience building infrastructure and APIs in AWS.
- You’re product-minded and customer-focused.
- You have experience working in organizations compliant with SOC 2 and HIPAA.

Interested? Reach out to the founder [email protected] and mention HN.
We just closed a lease on a new space where every employee will have their own office. Definitely atypical in Silicon Valley, which meant that buildings with a lot of build out are less desirable. That made it easier to negotiate the price.
My most common use-case is SaaS trials that require a credit card upfront – I set the limit at $1, so I don't have to worry about cancelling my trial before they autocharge me.
Essentially that's what Diffbot (https://www.diffbot.com/) does, except we don't the render pages as an image nor do OCR.
Diffbot renders the page in a headless browser, and uses computer vision to automatically identify the key page attributes and extract normalized data for specific page types (Articles, Products, Discussions, Profiles, Images, and Videos).
This approach enables us to work in any language and on sites that we've never come across before automatically with better than human level accuracy.
At a very high level, it's similar. We use computer vision and ML to extract structured data from any web page, even ones we haven't seen before. https://www.diffbot.com/
If anyone has any questions or wants to try it out, feel free to email me directly at [email protected]
Major differences I can see (OP feel free to correct if I'm wrong):
Link.fish
* doesn't provide a web crawler
* relies heavily on microdata, schema.org, RDFa, etc
* relies on manual parsers for sites that don't have microdata embedded
* doesn't full-render pages by default (Diffbot renders every page, so it can use computer vision to automatically extract the data)
* doesn't support proxies
* doesn't support entity tagging
Probably plenty more, but that's what jumps out to me at first blush.

Since I see other people have mentioned price as a concern, we're always willing to help out bootstrapped startups. Just shoot me an email: [email protected]
This was really hard for me to understand. When I skimmed this, my first assumption was that this was a direct replacement for Duolingo, when it's actually complementary.
It would probably be better to split up the long list of languages on to 2 different pages. 1. Language you want to learn, and 2. From which language. An alternative would be to have a separate section for each language to learn on the page with space in between.
Honestly I've gotten so much value from Font Awesome over the years that it was great to finally support the project – I have a feeling others felt the same way.
Full disclosure: I'm an employee
