Hi HN,I hacked together Yurl.ai last week—a bare-bones URL shortener in F# / .NET 9 using a simple CQRS + event-sourcing setup.The gimmick: for each new link, it grabs the page text and asks a small language model to suggest a short, readable slug (4–8 chars). I’m curious whether these model-made names beat the usual random hashes.Tech bits:Actors as aggregatesSQLite for both event store and read modelSource (MIT): https://github.com/OnurGumus/YURL Live demo: https://yurl.ai (free tier—please be gentle)Happy to hear what you think.

Yurl.ai – LLM based url shortener in F# is positioned in show hn launch, a segment that rewards a clear, focused offering.

The company is listed at the Show HN launch stage of development.
