Products that do what AI Swiss Army knife for devs in IDE to debug, test code, ask questions does
As we have been working on helping developers collaborate and accelerate their productivity, we started to look at ways to enlist AI in this cause. We started working with various AI models. That led us to launching Bito AI today on Product Hunt. If you have a Product Hunt account, we’d love your support: https://www.producthunt.com/posts/use-bito-ai-to-be-a-10x-de... Bito AI, https://bito.co, is like a Swiss Army knife for developers, enabling them to use AI to 10x their productivity. Our tool lives in the developer’s IDE and in Chrome and makes it easy via an…

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.

Hi HN! I’ve been building startfa.st, a curated directory of AI, developer, and product tools. Link: https://startfa.st Like many people building in AI/dev, I found myself drowning in new tools every day, everything from agents, deployment frameworks, auth platforms, workflow engines, model APIs, automation tools, design tools, security stacks, etc. There’s constant novelty, but it’s very hard to find signal. Most lists on the internet recycle the same names. So I built startfa.st to solve my own discovery problem. What startfa.st is A fast, searchable, hand-curated index of…

Hey HN - We're building wispbit (https://wispbit.com/) - a tool that lets you build your own AI code reviewer. We built this because we worked in big and complex codebases where we kept hitting booby traps - often the same ones. People forgot things, or quit altogether, amplifying the problem. We looked for other ways to fix this, but the solution is usually a combination of: - Writing a linter rule - too difficult and time consuming. - Writing docs and having frequent meetings on alignment - basically a full time job. - Using plug and play code reviewers - too generic and…

Hi all, I'm sure some of the best engineers out here are having a hard time standing out nowadays. It's hard to evaluate and improve your skills, when AI is writing the code. Especially when a junior dev is sitting by your side and "accomplishing" 2x more than you. I didn't like this reality where the line between real talent and AI slop is blurring, so I decided to create a challenge, purely for the community, that is made to truly give a stage for talented devs to stand out in the age of AI. We encourage devs to bring their agents with them, because the challenge is built to not be…

I’ve spent the last 2.5 months building a product that runs LLM-powered code reviews on my pull requests — and I just launched it. The tool is built specifically for solo developers. You install it on your repo, trigger a scan by creating a pull request, and it leaves structured review comments using OpenAI under the hood. Funnily enough, I used the dev version of this app to review its own pull requests while building it. It helped me spot bugs, simplify structure, and keep quality high — all with minimal need for another human in the loop. Things I want to try out in the next months : -…

Hi HN! Solo developer here. 10 days ago, I started building this after spending countless hours copying/pasting marketing sections and fighting to keep them consistent with our design system. I wondered: "What if AI could understand our design system and generate React components that actually match it?" Current progress (10 days in): - Can generate hero sections that follow your design tokens - Uses your actual component variants and styles - Works with Next.js, Tailwind, shadcn/ui It's very early days, but I'm excited to share it with other devs who: - Are tired of rebuilding…

Hi HN, Even the smartest AI coding agents stall when the fix isn’t in their training data. AgruSeek runs an agentic search loop across ~30 M developer sources to dig up solutions normal web search misses. REAL‑WORLD USES • Found an undocumented `--runtime‑bypass` flag (buried in a 2017 gist) • Pulled actual Claude Code pricing from forum anecdotes - no “contact us” paywalls • Traced a race condition by cross‑linking five issue trackers across forks WHY POST NOW We’ve abused AgruSeek internally for three weeks; we’d love outside stress tests. Access is free (limited seats for Beta, no…

Hey Hacker News, For the last 2 months, I've been working on a testing agent to free developers from the endless maintenance of end-to-end tests. You just push up a PR, and our agent analyzes the code changes and automatically visits the preview to test things out like a real human! We also support describing tests in English (or even in the PR description), and we'll go through your site whenever you want via a GitHub action to test and make sure various core flows continue to work as expected. We are looking for early testers and are giving out a generous free tier! Just sign up on the…

I built this AI navigation site when I was learning NextJS; I looked for AI tools to solve problems along the way, and found a lot of interesting AI products; A lot of these products are great. I thought it would be a good idea to bookmark my browser, but I wanted to share it with everyone in the world, so I had this site. Now you can do it in AI WITH. ME Find the AI products you need for work, life, and study; I have a lot of categories to choose from: programming, art, writing, video, lifestyle, health, you name it, and I try to update the data every day. If you find it helpful to you, you…

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…

Hey HN! Today we’re launching Fabi 2.0 For the past year we’ve been working with a number of product, eng, marketing and data teams, and the common issue we’ve been seeing with all these teams, especially small and growing teams, is that getting basic answers from their data requires jumping between a bunch of different tools/copy-pasting data and spreadsheets, or building out a full BI stack. With our latest release, users can not only connect Fabi to databases and data warehouses, but also to applications like HubSpot, Stripe, Shopify etc. We offer hundreds of connectors, and the AI…

AI changed the way we code, but we're still using the old processes, and we've become the bottleneck, the AI is waiting for us - to reply, to open our laptops, to review the code, and so on. We're building the future of AI software development. The agents are autonomous, they run in sandboxes, automatically fix the pipelines, and deliver you the final, working code. You can use live preview to see the changes they made. Working across multiple repositories, all within the same session. This is the future - you don't need an IDE, and you don't have to run anything locally.
