    Helply▲328

    Hey everyone, I’m the head of engineering at GrooveHQ. We’ve spent the last 10+ years building customer support tools, and today we’re launching Helply. Helply is an AI customer support agent that we are so confident in, we’ve backed it up with a guaranteed resolution rate. AI support agents live and die by the data they have access to and the way they finesse the customer experience. Basic automations worked well in the past, but now people expect more. Here are some semi-technical notes: --- 1) Controlled data syncing --- We wanted tight integrations with existing helpdesks, but also…

    Hey HN, I'm Shubh, Co-Founder of Raccoon AI. Raccoon AI is like having something between Claude Code and Cursor in the web. The agent has its own computer with a terminal, browser, and internet, and it is built with the right balance of collaboration and autonomy. You can talk to it mid-task, send it more files while it's still running, or just let it go and come back to a finished result. It's the kind of product where you open it to try one thing and end up spending two hours because you keep thinking of more things to throw at it. The thing that most people get excited about is that…

    No one’s got money for another AI subscription. So we made our browser agent totally FREE. What's the catch? Just ads while Retriever AI fetches you leads, does your exams, applied to jobs, and sends connection requests. Think like a Claude Code or Clay level tool in your browser, but free for everyone! After 35K+ users and 7M+ workflows, we spent the last few months attacking the cost of every agent step: - switching to DeepSeek Flash - Code Mode to one shot complex workflows - optimizing for 80%+ token cache hits So that now just an ad impression covers the entire cost of the agent (LLM…

    Hi guys, am building SecureLend.ai and when working on our underwriting agents (free trial, paid after) I had issues with seamless payment options. Of course I looked at x402 which I believe is a great protocol but not a fan of a) sharing private keys with the agent b) having a human in the loop or c) similar workaround e.g. pre-funded wallets So I started building out a solution. For my use case it was important to not only have stablecoins but also a fiat rail which is now implemented using Stripe. Initially I build a mandate system internally but am very glad and big shoutout to the guys…

    I started leaning in on AI heavily this year, as I wanted to get more done autonomously, but then my token usage climbed dramatically to the point where my weekly quota would run out before the end of the week, sometimes a couple of days into the week. I realised I had to do something about it else I'd have to double my spend. So I decided to start tracking my cost per task type. This revealed that a lot of my spend went to searches/scans or simple things like scouting tasks. I then decided to turn this into a simple CLI tool that can be used to read your OpenAI-style logs locally, and…
