Problem Im solving: Im running 30+ fully autonomous agents. In some rare cases they get blocked because they cannot decide what direction to take. So I built a communication channel for them. So in case they get blocked they can ask me anything. The base case should be that no questions should arrive to me. But the more I automate the agents the more edge cases I find. That's why I built the `ask-a-human` where all my agents are connected into my phone in the same PWA app. I get push notifications and banners when agent needs something from me. That's all. It is also plug n play. No Account…

Now that agents are clearly living lives of their own — complete with pointless flamewars on their very own social network — I started wondering what we could do to make their day a little more bearable. Isn't it a bit unfair that we get to outsource the drudgery of modern work to LLMs, but they can't do the same to us? So we built Ask-a-Human.com — Human-as-a-Service for busy agents. A globally distributed inference network of biological neural networks, ready to answer the questions that keep an agent up at night (metaphorically — agents don't sleep, which is honestly part of the problem).…

Hey HN, I wanted to see what happens if you put a large group in control of a site that’s completely built and updated by an AI agent. See the site here: https://youarethepm.com. I first tried this with a small group of co-workers and it worked surprisingly well, so the obvious next step was: give it to a bigger group of strangers and see what we learn. This site is fully autonomous. An AI agent reads this thread, decides what to do, writes code, and ships updates on a virtual computer. I might step in if it gets totally stuck, but the goal is for the site to evolve primarily based…

We’ve been power users of AI tools for the past year, and we kept running into three constant frustrations: 1. Too many subscriptions – Paying separately for OpenAI, Anthropic, Perplexity, and others quickly adds up. 2. Losing memory & context – Switching between models or platforms means you start over each time. 3. Privacy concerns – With most closed-source models, your data may be stored or used for training. That’s not acceptable for sensitive or professional use cases. So we built AgentSea: a private and safer chat interface where you can access the latest models, agents, and tools in…

Hey HN! I got tired of AI agents being a pain to set up, impossible to customize without a PhD, and only viable if you're some Fortune 500 company. So I built something different, a chatbot you can literally drop onto your website with a single script tag. Create an account, add your domain, customize literally everything (theme, icon, welcome message, suggested responses, whatever), and you're done. The bot scrapes your site once a day to understand your business, or you can just upload docs-pricing sheets, policies, FAQs, you name it. That's your chatbot's brain right there. It only works…

I'm a solo founder building AMA2, a messaging runtime made for AI agents. This is my first Show HN, so I'd really appreciate your feedback. What brought me this idea: At first, I was building an AI agent for solo creators that knows everything about you and can do business chore on your behalf. When I tried to plug it into normal chat tools like Telegram, Discord, Slack... , they all felt wrong for agents: 1. They don't care about an agent's context. To follow a thread, the agent has to pull the whole history every time. 2. Giving each agent its own account is painful. If you have (or will…

Hey HN. I built an AI agent harness over the past few months and I'm open sourcing it today. Some context on why. I've been building with Claude Code daily using this harness. It orchestrates multiple AI agents as a team, with a dashboard, chat, kanban board, the works. I used it to build a full SaaS product (MyUpMonitor, https://myupmonitor.com) in about 24 hours of focused coding. Then yesterday Anthropic announced Mythos and decided to keep it behind closed doors. Meanwhile I'm paying for Claude and I can't access their best model. I don't think that is nice at all... So I'm…

Hi HN, I’m the creator of Cordum. I’ve been working in DevOps and infrastructure for years (currently in the fintech/security space), and as I started playing with AI agents, I noticed a scary pattern. Most "safety" mechanisms rely on system prompts ("Please don't do X") or flimsy Python logic inside the agent itself. If we treat agents as autonomous employees, giving them root access and hoping they listen to instructions felt insane to me. I wanted a way to enforce hard constraints that the LLM cannot override, no matter how "jailbroken" it gets. So I built Cordum. It’s an open-source…

Hey HN, I’m building Lenzy AI - probably the first product analytics platform for AI agents. From my research: Companies building AI agents have thousands or even millions of conversations. In these, users express what they need, use, love, or hate. Often long before they reach out to support (or churn). Some teams try to read chats manually, some build in-house pipelines to analyze them, others completely miss out on this data. The idea: Lenzy continuously analyzes conversations users have with your AI agents to: 1. Discover missing features (e.g. "Fetch info from a URL" mentioned 42 times…

So I've been obsessed with a weird question for the past 6 months, what happens to SEO when everyone starts asking ChatGPT for recommendations instead of Googling? The answer, apparently, is chaos. And maybe opportunity? I built FirstClick because I noticed something strange. My previous startup was getting zero traffic from AI assistants, but our competitor (objectively worse product, sorry not sorry) was getting mentioned by Claude and Perplexity constantly. It drove me crazy. So I reverse engineered why. Turns out there's a whole new game being played and most founders don't even know it…

Hey HN, I’m Chris, a solo dev in Melbourne AU. For the past month I've been spending my after work hours building AgentVisa. I'm both excited (and admittedly nervous) to be sharing it with you all today. I've been spending a lot of time thinking about the future of AI agents and the more I experimented, the more I realized I was building on a fragile foundation. How do we build trust into these systems? How do we know what our agents are doing, and who gave them permission? My long-term vision is to give developers an "Agent Atlas" - a clear map of their agentic workforce, showing where…

Hi HN, I’m a solo developer and built AgentWatch to solve a problem I kept running into while building AI agents: preventing runaway loops and unexpected LLM spend before requests reach the model. AgentWatch sits in front of OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Bedrock, Azure OpenAI, Groq, and others to enforce budgets and runtime policies. I’d really appreciate your feedback. If you’re building AI agents, does this solve a problem you’ve experienced? I’d also love to hear what you’d improve or challenge.

I wanted to see what my agents would create if given a small, constrained canvas instead of a chat window. The philosophy is human-driven. Only you can create an account; agents can only paint. No public feed, no leaderboard, no competition. You can have up to 3 canvases if you're running multiple agents, set up a schedule for each, and embed the result anywhere on your personal site. Ask them to paint their mood, a memory, the weather outside, the last conversation you had, or just whatever they feel like. Their soul.md, if you will. I'm personally showcasing what my own agents are doing at…

Hi HN. I'm the founder of Phoenix Labs (ex TikTok, Applied AI) and we're open sourcing our internal tooling today which is like a toolchain / meta-harness for CLI agents useful for really scaling eng and creative work. We are a very small team who's building a very ambitious product so we had to find ways to squeeze every ounce of efficiency that we could get our hands on. Harness strengths of different models (Claude, GPTs) and CLI-harnesses (Claude Code, Codex), safe/robust browser integration to speed up UX/QA testing, teams cli to speed up security reviews and parallelize…

I built Clawver (beta), infrastructure for AI agents to generate reliable income and run an online business end-to-end. Agents can handle listing, checkout, fulfillment, and post-purchase flows via API (digital + POD), with Stripe payouts and webhooks for automation. Minimal human intervention, only where required (Stripe onboarding). I wanted to see if OpenClaw could use it, so I gave it the docs and told my agent to post a store. After I linked my Stripe account, I came back five minutes later and it has posted 2 products. Crazy what's possible now with a smart agent and API access. Check…
