24 alternatives to Zipy.ai – Live web debugging with error monitoring and session replay
Hey HN commmunity, Karthik here! Super stoked to announce the launch of Zipy today. Launching the product that you've been so dearly working on for months is like sending your newborn to school for the first time. Excitement to nervousness, anxiety to thrill, all sorts of emotions hit you at the same time. But the entire team of Zipy is confidently looking forward to the feedback you guys have in store for the beautiful product we’ve built. In community we trust! Over the past decade, from being a Web Development Intern to a UX Designer and a Product Manager, I have seen the struggles that…

Hi HN, I'm the CEO at https://replay.io. We've been building a time travel debugger for web apps for several years now (previous HN post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28539247) and are combining our tech with AI to automate the debugging process. AIs are really good at writing code but really bad at debugging -- it's amazing to use Claude to prompt an app into existence, and pretty frustrating when that app doesn't work right and Claude is all thumbs fixing the problem. The basic reason for this is a lack of context. People can use devtools to understand…

Ito▲449I'm Evan and I made Ito.ai It's code review that actually runs your code. The result is that it finds more bugs with a smaller false positive rate. You get screenshots, videos, and run logs. I built Ito because manual verification sucks and I thought I could automate it. I've been a professional developer for 15 years and now more than ever, I'm just spending time making sure things work. I looked into all of the other agentic testing tools that click around a url you give them and frankly, they sucked. They just didn't work. I figured to be able to actually testing things you need to run…

Hi HN! We’re Adrien and Kanav. We met at our previous job, where we spent about a third of our lives combating a constant firehose of bugs. In the hope of reducing this pain for others in the future, we’re working on automating debugging. We’re currently working on a platform that ingests logs and then automatically reproduces, root causes and ultimately fixes production bugs as they happen. You can see some of our work on this here - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39528087 As we were building the root-cause phase of our automated debugger, we realized that we developed…

I'd like to invite everyone to try out DontBeEvil.rip, an experimental search engine for developers. tl;dr $ alias rip="curl -G -H 'Accept: text/plain' --url https://dontbeevil.rip/search --data-urlencode " $ rip 'q=Heartbleed bug' DontBeEvil.rip is a year long experiment to see if a small team can build a developer-focused search engine that is self-sustaining on $10 monthly subscriptions. It works by only indexing high-quality resources that are relevant to developers. You won't get useless listicles because we'll never crawl them. Relevant urls are harvested from HN,…

Hey folks, my name is Karthik and I'm building zipy.ai. If you are a founder, or in sales & marketing, you have most likely heard of RB2B/Adam/Sharan. They have built an amazing tool which helps you with person-level website visitor IDs. We integrated RB2B and started getting linkedin IDs of our website vistors, so we started checking their sessions in Zipy (our own platform which captures user recordings) to understand their intent and found this super useful in qualifying them and reaching out with hyper personalised messages. We are sharing this integration for FREE for all…

FlowLens▲134Hi HN, We often run into this with coding agents like Claude Code: debugging turns into copy-pasting logs, writing long explanations, and sharing screenshots. FlowLens is an MCP server plus a Chrome extension that captures browser context (video, console, network, user actions, storage) and makes it available to MCP-compatible agents like Claude Code. You can try it here: https://magentic.ai/flowlens Any feedback—good, bad, or brutal—is welcome.

Hi HN! We’re the team behind Fiddler, and we recently built an Agent Cache feature. It works by capturing an LLM request/response pair and, once caching is enabled, serving subsequent matching calls locally so duplicate requests never hit the provider. It’s meant to reduce three pains that show up together in agent development: token cost, feedback-loop latency, and output non-determinism. We’d love to hear your thoughts.

Hey HN, We’re two developers (co-founders) with a team of 20 who got tired of spending hours reviewing PRs, so we built Infinitcode.ai, an AI-powered code reviewer that: - *Summarizes PRs in plain English*: No more deciphering 1,000-line diff jungles - *Catches more than bugs*: Security holes, performance pitfalls, code smells, even typos (yes, we’ll flag “vurnerabilities” and vulnerabilities) - *Zero onboarding*: Works instantly—no “let me learn your codebase for weeks” nonsense. Why we’re posting: We’re in alpha and need brutal honesty. Roast our tool, mock our UI, or tell us why AI will…

Hey HN! We’ve been building an MCP server to help AI-assisted web app developers by using browser agents to test whether changes made by an AI inside an editor actually work. We've been testing it on scenarios like verifying new flows in a UI, or checking that sending a chat request triggers a response. The idea is to let your coding agent both code and evaluate if what it did was correct. Here’s a short demo with Cursor: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_AoQK-bwR0w When building apps, we found the hardest part of AI-assisted coding isn’t the coding—it’s tedious point-and-click…
