    I'm a big fan of Chris Dixon's idea that "what the smartest people do on the weekends is what everyone else will do during the week in ten years." One such thing rn is "creating AI agents." Most devs I know have a few agents lying around. But you shouldn't have to be an engineer to use agents — and even engineers don't want to code every time they need a new agent. So we built a no-code platform to make it 100x easier to create those: * you give a prompt * select amongst 3,000+ API connectors we built (no need to fiddle with OpenAPI specs) * add event-based triggers that'll wake up your…

    Hey HN - founder here. I'm building Qordinate with a simple (big) idea: Most AI assistants talk to you. I want one that talks for you - one that can share, negotiate, and coordinate on my behalf with others. Reality: we're early. Today, Qordinate can: - send clean pings on your behalf (with your approval) - collect info/files via tiny forms and track replies - nudge people politely and close the loop with you - do basic actions via connectors (Gmail/Calendar/GitHub/Linear/Drive/Slack) - keep lightweight lists in chat (tasks, contacts, logs) Why I'm doing this…

    Co-Op▲30

    AI is in a weird place right now. Technical people marvel over it while non-technical people don't really care. So we built Co-Op, an app specifically designed for non-technical people to run AI agents without needing a Mac Mini or laptop running 24/7. Your agents run throughout the day and complete real work across your most important apps, no code required. For me, this looks like a daily notification with my unread emails across Outlook, Gmail, and any other inbox, the weather, commute time, flight prices I'm monitoring, and the news. But it goes way beyond that. Our agents can build…

    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 didn't want to buy a standalone computer or repurpose a laptop to run constantly so I could maintain a system to sync my LLMs, so I built this. It's a simple overview of my system, laid out in a way easy to unpack and replicate for yourself. The project is meant to be configured individually, and uniquely, since one solution might not be what's best for another. If anything, maybe it gives you some ideas on how to implement things for your own project. Best wishes, Ryan.

    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…

    Hey HN, Chris here. I have been playfully hacking on a few ideas that leverage some of the latest AI tools (both open-source and proprietary). One in particular seems somewhat useful and is ready for a few more eyeballs. The idea is to make building very capable AI phone agents as easy as creating an online form. We think the ease of production will lead to some interesting enterprise use cases. I'd love your feedback (order a Pizza from Vito in the demo to see how it performs) and in particular your ideas about potential uses. Thanks!

    Nisrine and I have been working in the same company for many years (she's Head of Product, I am CPTO) and we have done great things for our employer(s) all along. But we always wondered if we could launch our own app – after all, we know the process of it all, we just "never had the time". The idea started from a random conversation, after Nisrine told me a personal story about she had a stupid little fight with her partner, and after 3 or 4 back-and-forths on each side, she decided she was right. Of course, he decided HE was. But he was not sure, so he asked chatGPT... And lost :) We were…

    I spend way too much time reading emails and scheduling. I just want something that handles it for me.. without needing a whole new app. So, I’m building this thing that lives in WhatsApp. It helps with emails, scheduling, todo lists etc.. right from my whatsapp. Honestly, I feel like batman with alfred at my sevice lol. Still veryyy early, but I wanted to check if others would be intrested. Would love to hear what you think. <3

    Hey folks, I'm Yuval. I run a tiny startup called Glitter AI. It's just me full-time here, with a couple of freelances to help here and there. A couple of months ago, I went from managing zero requests to hundreds -- overnight (won Product of the day on Product Hunt). As someone who gets VERY easily distracted (maybe you relate), I had to find some sort of way of handling all the chaos if I didn't want to burn out. I came up with a pretty cool automation flow that I thought folks on HN here may be interested in reading about :) So here goes: Most of my interactions come through Intercom.…
