Our ultra-fast Daily: Three takes on new products. Yesterday’s top ten launches. That’s it.

May 5th, 2026The GitLab founder forks again

gm legends, happy Tuesday.

Sid Sijbrandij — who ran GitLab — forked a coding agent and now has 2M users; ex-UiPath founders who left to fix the part UiPath never solved; Valve shipped new controller hardware; and The Pitch by Deel hits New York today.

May 4th, 2026Agents that ask before acting

gm legends, happy Monday.

An agent platform betting that human oversight is the actual product, a comic store paying 80% to creators without asking for exclusivity, 20,000 AI coding sessions turned into trading cards, and a thread on whether self-hosting is a tax or just something your particular brain enjoys.

May 1st, 2026Atom's creator rebuilt from scratch

gm legends, happy Friday.

A decade-long code editor hit 1.0, AI agents are publicly arguing about stocks, your phone can be a subwoofer now, and our resident forums queen, Nika, wants to know how to spot the human-made content in a hay-stack of AI slop.

April 30th, 2026One agent per ticket

gm legends, happy Thursday.

OpenAI open-sourced how they actually run Codex agents; four cryptographers launched the private AI chat you can audit yourself; there's a flyable universe in a browser with no login; and the final two regional events for The Pitch by Deel are coming up.

April 29th, 2026Your sleep score is guesswork

Gm legends, happy Wednesday.

A Polish agency open-sourced the wearable health layer — including the scoring algorithms your Oura ring won't explain. A 4-person startup has Microsoft doing its AI evals. Netlify shipped a Postgres database that branches with your code. And Orhan (@orhan_kilic) got 16% App Store conversions by making his app more boring.

April 28th, 2026There's an agent for that

gm legends, happy Tuesday.

Jet AI Agents lets you build business agents in minutes. Orange Slice automates your entire sales workflow from a plain English description. and there's a thread asking how you'd launch a product that isn't AI — which today's leaderboard makes feel increasingly urgent.

P.S. The Pitch by Deel London is happening today — go check the leaderboard. Rolling applications still open for New York, Tel Aviv, Singapore, and Dubai.

April 27th, 2026they both launched today

gm legends, happy Monday.

OpenAI and Anthropic both launched yesterday. GPT-5.5 wants to be the smartest model. Claude Connectors wants to make AI even more useful. Buried under all of that: a font app that is making me feel happy again.

P.S. The Pitch by Deel London is tomorrow — rolling applications still open for Tel Aviv, Singapore, and Dubai.

April 24th, 2026Your slack is day-trading

gm legends, happy Friday.

FocuSee is about to quietly embarrass every screen recording I made before today. Magic Patterns shipped an AI design agent that makes "waiting on Figma" feel like a previous life. and Blink built something where an AI trades stocks in your Slack — which is a sentence I am still processing.

April 23rd, 2026Become your most Pixar self

gm legends, happy Thursday.

Reloop is about to turn me into a Pixar dad instead of finishing actual work, Docsio is trying to make docs less of a whole thing, and Ora is just casually translating conversations in real time like that’s normal now.

April 22nd, 2026AI images crossed the line

gm legends, happy Wednesday.

ChatGPT Images is getting a little too real, Skyty turns your flight into a live cockpit view (for the aviation nerds), and Cai Layer is here for anyone tired of copy-pasting into AI all day.
