Announcing Product Hunt Forums

This newsletter was brought to you byCoChat

happy Friday-eve legends! Welcome back to the Leaderboard. In today's edition, we're doing something a little different. We're pulling takes from the brand new Product Hunt Forums.

Forums is our new way for the community to engage with one another. It's kind of like having a subreddit for every product. Check out the launch here and get involved.

With greater power comes greater imagination

Discussion: Replit's AI Agent website builder, an honest review.

Just like actual coding, using Replit can take a wrong turn and feel like banging your head against a wall. I burned through a bunch of checkpoints trying to get a simple button working (kept seeing a blank screen), eventually started over, and it just worked. The promise here is incredible—I think even in a few months, many non-coders will be able to build pretty robust applications. With greater power comes greater imagination... we might see an explosion of consumer app creativity as people build for themselves, and a rare few take off.

Deserves more love than it gets

Discussion: Why is Cursor so much popular than Windsurf?

As someone who uses Windsurf as my daily driver, I think it deserves more love than it gets! The real magic to me is its ability to pull in the right context. When I used Cursor I had to do a lot of manual hand-holding to make sure the right files were included; Windsurf just figures out what it needs and includes it as context.

Share agents, not your machine

CoChat connects your local OpenClaw to a shared workspace so your team can run agents together, review outputs side-by-side, and iterate in real time — no SSH access to your laptop required.

Bring every instance into one hub: local OpenClaw, KiloClaw, multiple machines. Same agents, shared context, zero stepping on toes. Don’t want it running on personal devices? Deploy managed, containerized OpenClaw instances with real access controls.

Claude, GPT, Gemini — switch models mid-conversation and compare outputs in one thread.

Discussion: What are your thoughts on OpenAI's realtime API?

The OpenAI Realtime API and the Gemini Multimodal Live API are both very exciting. They are "speech-to-speech" APIs, which most of us in this space think are clearly the future! But both APIs are still in beta and are missing some features that are necessary today for most production/enterprise voice AI use cases: context management, configurable turn detection, proxying function calls to web hooks, ways to model conversations as state machines/transitions, etc. And the models behind these APIs are not quite as steerable or reliable as their "full" counterparts available via the HTTP inference APIs.
