    SimplAIfree tier, from $5/mo▲589

    Hey 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…

    CodeWords▲385

    Hey HN, Aymeric here, co-founder of Agemo and maker of CodeWords. Generating nice-looking UIs with AI has been democratized now thanks to tools like Lovable, v0 and bolt. Going from natural language to a complex back-end workflow is still an unsolved problem. We started our journey by researching neurosymbolic methods applied to software/code generation problems and it landed us a feature in the ARC-AGI report last year (https://arxiv.org/abs/2412.04604). We've now applied this research to build an AI-native workflow automation platform to enable builders of any…

    Preloop▲121

    Hey HN, I’m Yannis, co-founder of Preloop. We’ve built a proxy for the Model Context Protocol (MCP) that lets you add human approval gates to your AI agents without changing your agent code. We’re building agents that use tools (Claude Desktop, Cursor, etc.), but we were terrified to give them write-access to sensitive systems (Stripe, Prod DBs, AWS). We didn't want to rewrite our agents to wrap every tool call in complex "ask_user" logic, especially since we use different agent runtimes. We built Preloop as a middleware layer. It acts as a standard MCP server proxy.You point your agent to…
