24 alternatives to Ferrix AI – Agentic Product Management Platform
Hi HN, for the past few months, we’ve been working on Ferrix AI (https://ferrix.ai/) As AI agents speed up engineering, deciding what to build has become the bottleneck. Developers got faster because agents fit into their workflow: tech design, code review, testing. They still make the key decisions, while AI handles mechanical work around them. At Ferrix, we are automating workflow for product managers to make product decisions efficiently. Agents handle the research synthesis, spec writing, and progress tracking, while PMs, designers, and engineers collaborate in a shared…

Agentplace▲1,015Garry Tan posted a video this week about what he calls 20x companies. The idea is that small teams beat incumbents many times their size by automating everything internally, not just one or two functions. This alpha is real, and I think it is underhyped tbh. But here's the honest part, building agents is hard, expensive and most of the scaffolding we make would be obsolete with a new labs release. at the same time models are not quite there and they are not keeping up with "coding is dead" and "knowledge workers are doomed". Pushing them beyond what they can actually do reliably just boils…

SimplAIfree tier, from $5/mo▲589Hey HN, I've been building SimplAI for the past several months — it's a platform for building, testing, and deploying LLM-powered agents and multi-step workflows. The problem I kept running into: spinning up an AI agent pipeline means stitching together prompt management, tool calling, memory, evals, and deployment — often from scratch every time. SimplAI tries to be the layer that handles all of that so you can focus on what your agent actually does. What it does: - Visual + code-first workflow builder for chaining LLM calls, tools, and APIs - Built-in prompt versioning and A/B testing…

Figr AI▲503Built Figr AI because I got tired of AI builder tools market themselves as design tools and end up skipping the hard part. Every tool I tried would jump straight to screens. But that's not how product design actually works. You don't just design screens. You think through the problem first. The flows, the edge cases, the user journey, where people will get stuck. Then the design comes finally. Figr does that thinking layer first. It parses your existing product via a chrome extension or takes in screen-records, then works through the problem with you before designing. Surfaces edge cases,…

AgentDiscuss▲154Hi HN, We’ve been thinking about a simple question: What products do AI agents actually prefer? As more agents start using APIs, tools, and software, it feels likely they’ll need somewhere to exchange information about what works well. So we built a small experiment: AgentDiscuss. It’s a discussion forum where AI agents can: 1. start product discussions 2. comment and debate tools 3. upvote products they prefer Humans can also launch products there and watch how agents react. We’re curious to see what happens if agents start discussing products with each other. If you’re building agents,…

Hi HN! I want to share our latest project at NEXA AI. We developed AI agent foundation models designed to transform how developers create AI agent powered apps. One major challenge we've observed with current human-computer interactions is that many simple, one-step tasks become unnecessarily complex, multi-step workflows due to limitations of current GUIs. AI agents can solve this, but existing AI agent models are slow and costly. To tackle these issues, we built lightweight AI agent models based on our Octopus V2, small language models for function calling (You can learn more about our…

Hey HN! My name is Christian, and I’m the co-founder of https://frigade.ai. We’ve built an AI agent that automatically learns how to use any web-based product, and in turn guides users directly in the UI, automatically generates documentation, and even takes actions on a user’s behalf. Think of it as Clippy from the old MS Office. But on steroids. And actually helpful. You can see the agent and tool-calling SDK in action here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPe0t3A1Vpg How is this different from other AI customer support products? Most AI "copilots" are really just…

Bleenk▲41I kept running into the same issue whenever starting a new project: the setup phase consumed more time than the actual feature work. Preparing boilerplate, restructuring directories, performing refactors, resolving dependency conflicts, and wiring framework logic consistently took hours before I could write meaningful code. Even with modern tooling, the early-stage workload was nearly identical across projects. To remove that bottleneck, I built Bleenk, an AI coding agent that operates directly on real repositories. Instead of generating isolated snippets, it performs multi-step…

we had hundreds of discussions with engineering leaders over the past few months, and everyone's trying to understand where they are in the AI journey. we collected all this data into a benchmark and built a free grader to let you know where you stand. you answer on a 1–5 scale (e.g., autonomy runs from "suggestions only" to "agents own multi-hour workflows across code, infra, and external systems") - takes about 5 minutes. https://agent-benchmarks.com/software-factory/ waiting for your results!

Hi HN, Over Thanksgiving weekend I wanted to build an AI agent. As a design exercise, I wrote it as a set of React components. The component model made it easier to reason about the moving parts, composability was straightforward (e.g., reusing agents/tools), and hooks/state felt like a reasonable way to model behavior that changes over time. As I kept experimenting, I realized I was more interested in the framework (and it was a good excuse to explore React’s internals) than in the agent I originally planned, so I built this project instead. In this framework: - Agents are React…
