Thought the same. Ollama has a JSON mode, it's the closest I got to using it for function calling:

  brew install ollama
  brew services start ollama
  curl http://localhost:11434/api/generate -d '{
    "model": "phi:2.7b-chat-v2-q5_K_M",
    "prompt": "Generate a JSON object that models a list of products",
    "raw": true, "format": "json",
    "stream": false
  }' | jq

If you’re willing to disclose — how does it work, technically?

If it works with photos (rasterised formats) it means the “invisible” watermarks do need to be visible to a certain degree.

Does it print gray patterns on white areas? Replace some letters with variations? Just guessing here!

We do our own due diligence checks for each property we list on Proptee. All listings need to have a recent valuation done by an independent valuator and an inventory check.

If the landlord sells 100% of the property on Proptee, then we would manage the property, so it's in our interest not to accept bad properties.

If the landlord sells less than 100% then they will continue managing the property themselves.

Either way, both us and the landlord are aligned with the investors.

Hi all, one of the co-founders here.

We are 4 engineers who started Proptee to solve a problem of ours — we didn’t have enough money and credit history to get a mortgage.

Proptee connects landlords with investors. Landlords list their property on Proptee to release equity (like remortgaging). On the other side, we have investors who wish to invest in property in small amounts.

We split each property in small shares. This way, investors can buy shares of rental properties and, like on a stock exchange, sell later at a different price. They also receive monthly dividends for holding onto these shares.

That’s Proptee in a nutshell.

I will do a rebranding of both apps. I've already started with WhatsApp for Desktop which is now Unofficial WhatsApp for Desktop.

The link seems to have expired, can you please post another one?

Thank you for the advice. I really didn't do it on purpose. I just thought WhatsApp for Desktop was a proper name for the project. I wasn't aware it would produce so much confusion.

I'm going to change the name of the app asap. I'll also make it clearer it's an unofficial app. What else do you think I should do?

Do you have the same thoughts about http://messengerfordesktop.com/? Should I rename that app too?

Thanks again.

I'm sorry for the confusion, I'll try to make it clearer on the website it's not an official app.

Do you know how I should contact Facebook to discuss these legal problems? I can't find any way to contact them, and the help center isn't helpful at all.

Hey, everyone, I'm the dev. First of all, thanks to @halfimmortal for posting this, I've just stumbled upon it. It's my first time on the front page ^^

I didn't realise using the official logo, their colours and the name was so bad. I emailed WhatsApp to discuss it and I hope we'll come to an agreement. Whatever we get to, I'm willing to rename the app and use another domain to keep the app alive.

The app is just a wrapper around web.whatsapp.com which runs on top of NW.js. What I did is make the notifications work, I added custom themes (will be available in the next release) and some minor tweaks to improve integration with the OS.

The app doesn't work on iOS due to some operating system limitations. I think WhatsApp is working on it.

Thanks for the support and the naming idea.
