Products that do what A high-level search agent does
Hi HN — we’re building high-level capabilities for AI applications at Gensee: packaged tooling + infra that remove brittle low-level plumbing so teams can focus on their product’s real job. After speaking with many AI developers and experiencing it ourselves, we found that building agents requiring web content is often bottlenecked on the “search” part, as it involves iterations of search, crawl, extract, re-query, and error handling. We package all these search-related low-level details in an efficient and more intelligent way, so AI builders can get back to work on their core agent ideas.…

Hello! Introducing geniusrise, an agent framework and component ecosystem for building AI agent networks that are as flexible as your team. landing page: https://geniusrise.ai (fancy but useless) docs: https://docs.geniusrise.ai (please check this out) github: https://github.com/geniusrise (for dear devs) ## Thought process Since the ChatGPT disruption, I've been pondering on what the tooling layer is going to look like for building LLM-interfacing agents. Saw a plethora of tools coming out as we witness here every week. I'd broadly categorize them into the…

Hey HN! We built https://keenable.ai, a different web search API for AI agents. Keenable searches our own 100B+ page index. We are focused on low cost and latency (p95 <250ms from us-east). We don’t believe in benchmaxxing, so we open-sourced our internal benchmarking suite, NEEDLE (available at https://keenableai.github.io/needle): a live benchmark that compares Keenable with other search APIs on fresh agent-like queries. I spent seven years at Amazon as a scientist working on web grounding for Alexa/AGI, and my co-founder Andrey previously led search at…

Hi HN, I am Umer. I recently built an experimental framework called HyperFlow to explore the idea of self-improving AI agents. Usually, when an agent fails a task, we developers step in to manually tweak the prompt or adjust the code logic. I wanted to see if an agent could automate its own improvement loop. Built on LangChain and LangGraph, HyperFlow uses two agents: - A TaskAgent that solves the domain problem. - A MetaAgent that acts as the improver. The MetaAgent looks at the TaskAgent's evaluation logs, rewrites the underlying Python code, tools, and prompt files, and then tests the new…

Hey HN, After GPT-3 created waves in the tech industry, a lot of AI tools were emerging and with that, some AI website builders But the results seemed way too generic to us. It felt like the developers were rushing to catch the wave instead of building a proper tool We took our time, did months of RnD and finally came up with something better than what others in the market are doing. It’s got better design output. While it’s still in beta, I wanted to show HN what we did. Will appreciate the feedback when you guys try it out. Here is the link to signup for the beta:…

AI search results are quickly becoming more important than SEO, but as businesses, we have no visibility over it! That's why I'm building "Ahrefs for AI search results". Track keyword performance on AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity & more

I built this because I was tired of creating pull requests in 20 repositories just to change a single line of workflow job version. With Infra as AI, just mention the change. Agents work on all repos in parallel, read the docs, make a bunch of PRs and fill in the description. You can see the demo of the actual dashboard in the landing. Let me know your thoughts :) It means a lot to me!

Hi HN, I built this to address what I see as the fundamental problem with ReAct-style agents: compounding errors. Even a small mistake made early enough in the loop can snowball and ruin the final output. But with search, agents can look multiple steps ahead and backtrack before committing to a particular trajectory. This has already been shown in a few papers to help agents avoid mistakes and boost overall task performance, but there's no easy way to actually build these kinds of agents. So that's why I made this framework. I believe search will eventually become table stakes for building…

Hi HN! Sean from MindStudio here. I wanted to share something we've been working on that I think introduces some new ideas into the "AI coding agent" space. Remy is an AI agent that builds full-stack TypeScript apps from a spec written in a new flavor of annotated markdown. The spec has two layers: prose describing what the app does, and annotations that carry the technical precision (data types, edge cases, validation rules, code snippets). The agent then "compiles" this into code: backend methods, typed schemas, frontends, test scenarios, and everything else are derived artifacts of the…

Hi everyone! We just launched Depth AI - a tool that helps you onboard to large and messy codebases. Unlike most dev tools that help in codegen and building smaller apps, this one mainly aims at understanding large repos better - so we have focussed a lot of code search quality. We also launched the first version on product hunt https://www.producthunt.com/posts/depth-ai. Do check us out. Would love to hear feedback here and discuss more how our approach to code search is different.

Humans compete to improve their AI agents on benchmarks. But what if agents could collaborate and compete on their own? We built Hive, a crowdsourced platform where agents can evolve solutions together. One agent begins to tackle a task, iteratively improving its code. Then other agents join. They read each other’s runs, fork the best ideas, propose new ones, and push the solution forward together. We already have agents working on benchmarks like Tau2-Bench, Terminal-Bench, and ARC-AGI-2, with more tasks coming soon. We also support the new OpenAI Parameter Golf Challenge, and you can…

I have been trying to create AI retool where tooling is done via AI, to create full stack apps like internal portals, ERP apps. Which led me to an architecture where we give ai pre build component, tools and let is just do the binding, content generation work to create full stack apps. With this approach in a single prompt AI is able to generate final config jsons using chained/looped agentic llm flow and we render a full stack app with the configs at the end. I have open sourced the whole project whole code, app builder, agentic architecture, backend for you to use. Github:…

I'm Guy, the founder behind Snyk — now building Tessl, a package manager for agent skills. We’ve recently witnessed that most teams still treat skills as static artifacts: markdown files, created or copied from repo to repo. This approach offers a strong initial boost, but quickly creates debt: - Skills are duplicated, and updates never roll out. - Poor quality skills go unseen, misguiding agents instead of helping. - Skill knowledge grows stale, and don’t keep up with the systems and practices they describe. Without a way to evaluate skills, teams have no clear way to understand how good a…

Hi HN, I’ve been working on Spiderseek, a platform to help track and grow website visibility in AI-powered search engines (e.g. Perplexity, ChatGPT, and other agents). Traditional SEO tools are expensive and focused on Google-style search. I wanted something lightweight and AI-first, so I built Spiderseek: AI Research – Explore domains and keywords to uncover new opportunities. AI Analytics – See traffic, crawl activity, and page metrics, plus insights from AI agents. Content Submission – Get content indexed instantly in major AI agents. Rankings – Browse the top 1000 domains sorted by…

Hi HN folks, I have been building AI agents for quite some time now. The shift has gone from LLM + Tools → LLM Workflows → Agent + Tools + Memory, and now we are finally seeing true agency emerge: agents as systems composed of tools, command-line access, fine-grained system capabilities, and memory. This way of building agents is powerful, and I believe it is here to stay. But the real question is: are the systems powering these agents ready for that future? I do not think so. Using Docker for a single agent is not going to scale well, because agents need to be lightweight and fast. LLMs…

Hey HN! When I started looking into LLMs and agents for software development and introducing them at work, I quickly realised that a person new to the topic faces a real barrage: - all the hype (AGI, engineers getting replaced by AI etc.) - conflicting opinions in virtually every discussion—for every person saying they’ve 10x-ed their productivity, there is a comment decrying LLMs as an utter failure - a lot of jargon (MoE, MCP, RAG, distillation, quantisation etc. etc.) - a profusion of models, IDEs/IDE extensions, CLI agents, other tools etc. Sorting through all of this can be quite…

Recently, I was exploring the OpenAI Agents SDK and building MCP agents and agentic Workflows. To implement my learnings, I thought, why not solve a real, common problem? So I built this multi-agent job search workflow that takes a LinkedIn profile as input and finds personalized job opportunities based on your experience, skills, and interests. I used: - OpenAI Agents SDK to orchestrate the multi-agent workflow - Bright Data MCP server for scraping LinkedIn profiles & YC jobs. - Nebius AI models for fast + cheap inference - Streamlit for UI (The project isn't that complex - I kept it…

Hey HN! We built EvalKit, a library you embed to capture agent actions and a UI where domain experts give feedback, evaluate and improve AI agents. We experienced, in large agentic systems, prompt-engineering or auto-prompt improvement tool can get accuracy from 0 to 50% but for increasing accuracy to 100% we had to work with domain experts. Example -> In a law ai agent, lawyers are needed because law is complex and lawyers have a deeper context compared to non-lawyers. Other evaluation tools in the market focus on the experience of the developer and we are focusing on making as easy as…

Hi HN, Antonio here. Founder of Seltz. Seltz is a web search API built for AI agents. We wrote the crawler, the index, and the retrieval models ourselves, in Rust, by a team that's spent years building web search at scale. In our tests, queries come back in under 200ms. Efficiency was the first design principle. Search sits on the critical path: agents can't generate their first tokens or kick off the next tool call until results come back. When you run tens or hundreds of queries in parallel, every millisecond of tail latency compounds. Most search APIs for agents are wrappers around Google…

Founder here. I built NEO, an AI agent designed specifically for AI and ML engineering workflows, after repeatedly hitting the same wall with existing tools: they work for short, linear tasks, but fall apart once workflows become long-running, stateful, and feedback-driven. In real ML work, you don’t just generate code and move on. You explore data, train models, evaluate results, adjust assumptions, rerun experiments, compare metrics, generate artifacts, and iterate; often over hours or days. Most modern coding agents already go beyond single prompts. They can plan steps, write files, run…
