Warestack: Manage every code base with best practices.

Warestack offers a dashboard to keep tabs on all your GitHub repositories, with a built-in AI assistant to help make sense of it all. It feels like a natural fit for big companies managing dozens of repos where things can easily get chaotic. For someone like me, though, who works mostly in one or two familiar repos, it’s probably overkill. The concept is solid, but without more robust search or organization tools, I’m not sure how much clarity it actually adds. That said, if you’re wrangling a mountain of repos, Warestack might just be the helping hand you didn’t know you needed.

Lightscreen: A voice agent for cheating-proof tech screens

Right now, Lightscreen is narrowly focused on helping hiring teams weed out cheaters at the screening stage with AI-proctored coding tests. But I can see lots of other uses for software like this in academia (take-home tests), medicine (licensure exams), law (bar exams) and so on. From a UI standpoint, there’s already a lot to like here: the voice agent doesn’t interrupt, which is more than OpenAI can say, and it gives appropriate hints without giving too much away.

Blitzit: A simple to-do list and timer for peak productivity. 

I’ve tried dozens of productivity apps and I alwas go back to creating to-do lists in Apple Notes. The big reason why is because too many of these apps are so complicated that productivity becomes secondary to the app itself. Blitzit is different. The team have struck a sweet spot between having a solid feature set and keeping it simple. It breaks your day down into lists with each task havingatimer. While you work, you can add notes, take breaks, and enter “focus mode” — a reduced interace to be less distracting. Now, if it could just do my tasks for me while I catch up on my reading list that would be great.

NeckLife: An app that uses Airpods to fix your posture

NeckLife turns your AirPods into a posture watchdog, tackling the all-too-familiar “tech neck” that comes with endless hours at your desk. It uses AirPods’ sensors to track your head position, sending gentle nudges when you start to slouch and logging your posture history to keep you honest. It’s a smart idea, but let’s be real—wearing AirPods all day just to save your neck might not feel super practical. Still, for AirPods lovers glued to their screens, it’s a creative way to straighten up (literally) without adding another gadget to the mix.

Friend: A platform that connects you to random AI "friends."

Friend, the company that made waves on tech Twitter for spending $1.8M on its domain, just launched what feels like an AI version of Omegle. It connects you to random "friends," each with their own baggage, for one-on-one chats. Right away, I noticed how blunt and overly confessional these "friends" are—almost an over-correction from ChatGPT’s typical politeness and stiffness. But instead of feeling more human, it comes off as a meaner, sadder AI. There’s a sweet spot they seem to have missed here—some fine-tuning could make a big difference.

64x24: A panoramic camera for iPhone, inspired by the classic XPan.

65x24 is the very definition of a passion project in my mind. It’s a camera app inspired by the iconic Hasselblad XPan (photographers got giddy reading this), a vintage camera from the 90s that inspired a cult like following around the 65:24 aspect ratio. The app opens up in landscape mode optimized for panorama and comes with some cool post processing features that give you more control over iPhone shooting like brightness and exposure adjustments. So far, I love it, and I can’t find a single thing I would change. Excited to see future updates!

Sweet Lemon: Manage and cancel subscriptions that you don't use. 

Sweet Lemon has a promising approach to subscription management, but it feels a bit undercooked. It integrates with Slack, Notion, and GitHub—handy, though limited if you're after a complete view of your subscriptions. Setup was a bit rocky; I hit an error, which luckily I could fix due to my admin access permissions, but it’s a hurdle others might struggle with. Once inside, the lack of onboarding left me staring at a dashboard without clear next steps. It’s an interesting tool with potential, but it needs more polish to really help with the hassle of tracking unused licenses.

Navja: An AI-powered voice assistant for Mac.

Navja is a MacOS menubar app that lets you integrate AI processing from various frontier models into everyday tasks — transforming voice notes to intelligent text, adding context, capturing visuals and so forth. It’s a nifty, non-intrusive tool that seems helpful for even the casual computer user who'd like to save time drafting emails or taking notes. Then again, most of those casual users probably aren’t willing to pay for API usage and will probably just default to built-in assistants like GPT Canvas

WoofyClub: Exchange free dog boarding with local dog parents.

As a dog owner the first thing on my mind when I book a trip is securing a safe place for my dogs to stay (if they can’t come with). Usually that’s a swanky kennels close by me but I’m seeing more apps dedicated to being sort of like an AirBnB for dogs. WoofyClub is one of them. I love the ‘you scratch my back, I scratch yours’ philosophy behind it and the process of meeting prospective dog carers beforehand helps settle pre-travel fears. For now though I’ll probably continue defaulting to kennels. The combination of trained staff, secure areas, and of course insurance is hard to pass up when you want peace of mind that your pet is in good hands.

RivalSense: Receive daily updates on your competitors

RivalSense claims it can solve the “founder’s dilemma” — the idea that great founders focus on their users, not their competitors (but also have an in-depth understanding of the industry landscape). You plug in the names of companies you’re interested in following, and the app sends you a weekly AI-generated newsletter with commercially significant updates about the company, like pricing changes, new features or hires, content initiatives, or financial filings. I could see these updates triggering spirals in the hands of an especially neurotic founder, but overall this seems like a fairly low-effort way to stay abreast of the competition without having to doomscroll X or LinkedIn all day

Raycast Notes: A fast, light, and frictionless note-taking app. 

Raycast Notes might finally replace Apple Notes for me and it’s not because it does anything mind-blowing — in fact it’s because it takes the simplicity of Apple Notes and improves it. You can bring it up with the stroke of a key and from there it just floats while you work. You can track todos, save meeting notes, capture ideas, and quickly search between them. Most importantly for me, it’s fully keyboard accessible and markdown enabled. It hits the sweet spot of note-taking apps by not going too far outside the basic. Note-taking is basic, keep it that way but just make it a little more enjoyable. My only feature request would be syncing across mobile. 

Magic Notepad by TimeOS: Intelligently adds context to your meeting notes

Since I’m stubbornly committed to my Firefox browser, I probably didn’t get the optimal TimeOS experience. The app works best with Chrome, where it integrates as an extension that can brief you for meetings, intelligently add context to your notes, and jot down summaries of its own. Still, I was fairly impressed with the pared-down version I tried on a recent team call. My AI assistant (which appeared as a member of the call, a feature you can opt out of in Chrome) took fairly accurate and helpful notes on a meandering conversation with colleagues. The final result still required enough clean-up on my end that it wasn't a huge time saver, but I could see an integration like this becoming part of my regular meeting workflow once it becomes smarter.

DreamMuse: Explore your subconscious and gain insights with every dream you record. 

I’m one of those people blessed or cursed with very vivid dreams which has led me to be fascinated by the science behind the subconscious. DreamMuse feeds right into that for me. It combines science and spiritualism pretty well letting you breakdown your dreams into categories and feed them into a calendar view. It even comes with a sentiment analysis feature. On the flip side, you can explore the symbolism behind each dream, pair them with tarot cards and use AI to interpret them. My only feature request is a GitHub-style contribution graph but for dreams.

VoteGPT: An AI assistant that helps you clear the noise on election candidates.

I was reluctant at first to trust an AI assistant to give people unbiased information for making important voting decisions. But I can see the huge value in clearing out the bias, noise, and misinformation you’d run into if you were searching the web yourself and surfacing only the facts. It feels geared more toward people who are under- or misinformed rather than voters who already have a solid understanding and want to dive deeper into the issues or have more nuanced discussions. Right now, it’s very focused on presidential candidates (understandable, since the U.S. election is tomorrow!), but the other topics are pretty sparse. I can see a case where VoteGPT could really help people make better decisions on the whole ballot, not just for the president—like representatives or ballot measures.

Tesseract: An Interstellar inspired note-taking app.

Interstellar is probably my favorite sci-fi film, and I’m guessing a lot of you might feel the same. So when a notes app inspired by the movie launches, you know I’m all over it. Tesseract lets you explore memories as if they’re floating in space, bouncing between sentences and giving your content a life of its own. It feels like a trip through time, guided by your notes. The only downside? Every time I use it, I can’t get the Interstellar main theme out of my head.

Getmobi: Clap to find your phone.

Getmobi is exactly what I need—because, honestly, I lose my phone all the time, and “Find My” is useless unless I have my Mac around to track it down. With Getmobi, I can just clap or whistle, and my phone chirps back, saving me from the usual wild search through cushions and bags. But here’s the fun twist: once friends catch on, they’ll probably clap just to mess with me, triggering my phone at random. Worth it, though, for the peace of mind that I can find my phone without needing another device.

Macroscope 2: Turn your iPhone into a microscope.

Macroscope 2 is such a great find—I bought it immediately for my kids! I’ve used a kid-friendly microscope with a phone adapter before, but this app removes all the hassle of buying, storing, and setting up extra equipment. Now, I can just pull out my phone and let the kids explore freely. The only tricky part was learning the focus position; it would be more intuitive if the focus control were directly on the main screen instead of hidden in settings. It even got me wondering—could a telescope version be next to help us explore the stars

Static Website Hosting: Host your static website in a few clicks.

Static App is the product I didn’t know I needed but now wish I’d had five years ago. Whenever I needed a landing page, I’d usually turn to Webflow—powerful but often too costly and more than necessary, especially with template fees adding up. Static App cuts through the extras, delivering everything I need for a landing page at a fraction of the cost. It includes form submissions, SSL certificates, a free domain, and supports JavaScript for added customization if I bring in a developer. It’s a slick, lightweight alternative to Framer or Webflow, and I’m genuinely excited to start using it!

Mineweather: Visualize the weather report in a Minecraft setting

Not every product has to have the potetential to change the world in order to get me excited. Sometimes it’s the little things like MineWeather that make my day. MineWeather does one thing, it visualizes the weather in your location in a MineCraft setting. It’s a nice hit of nostalgia, and joy while being functional. I’d love to see this take off for even more games. Maybe a WoW version?

Walle: A proxy that lets AI agents make online payments for you.

Walle is an encrypted wallet for AI agents — a proxy that integrates into any headless browser and lets the agent make payments on your behalf (after getting your authorization). The app is still in beta, but it seems like a big step toward a future where we delegate most of our online (and IRL?) shopping to agents. There are a lot of great use cases here: you could tell your agent to track price fluctuations and buy plane tickets when they’re cheapest, or ask it to find, e.g., a set of Belgian linen sheets below $200 and save yourself a few hours of mindless scrolling. On the other hand, it's probably a lot easier to rack up credit card debt when your agent's doing the shopping...
