We launched Wize AI Agent by REVE Chat today, and I wanted to start a quick discussion around something we ve been thinking about:
What actually separates an AI Agent from a traditional chatbot for a business?
For years, chatbots mostly answered FAQs, collected basic details, or routed visitors. Helpful, but often limited when customers needed real guidance or suggestions.
While building FixerFlip, I ve noticed something I didn t expect: most real estate tools try to give you more information.
But when I m actually looking at a property, the problem usually isn t I need more data. It s Which of these numbers actually matter for this decision?
We are two engineers who had no business caring this much about floor plans. Yet here we are.
When we first explored AI for real estate, everyone told us the same thing. Start with photos. Run AI virtual staging. Make the images pop. It sounded reasonable. It also felt wrong.
This is something we kept thinking about while building Kestrel Voice. For a small business, a missed call isn t always just a missed call. It could be someone looking for a quote, trying to book an appointment, or simply calling because they need help right now. But the person running the business might be on a job, with a customer, driving, or just away from the phone.
That s the problem we wanted to solve. We ve been building Kestrel Voice as an AI receptionist for small businesses, something that can answer calls, handle common questions, book appointments, and make sure customers aren t left waiting for someone to pick up. The interesting part has actually been figuring out what an AI should and shouldn t handle on behalf of a real business.
Most online BaZi (Four Pillars) tools either produce a chart with unexplained rules or give a generic reading that obscures the calculation.
I built InsightBaZi to put the deterministic parts first: true solar time, DST, solar terms, and the Zi-hour boundary are considered before AI explains the Day Master, Five Elements, Ten Gods, and timing cycles.
It s free to try, supports 10 languages, and I d genuinely value feedback on whether the chart inputs and reading feel clear:
Yesterday, I announced Product Hunt Gems, a Reddit community and newsletter for great products that were not featured on Product Hunt.
Our team has looked for such "hidden gems" since the beginning of the year, and below you will find some of the best ones that were launched in January. You'll find several more in our newsletter. I will post gems from February here tomorrow.
I want to share a personal realization that completely changed how I look at productivity and AI software.
For months, I fell into a lazy routine: instead of actually writing my own emails or reports, I would just type a brief, one-sentence prompt into a cloud LLM and let it generate the entire text from scratch for me. I would then copy-paste the output without a second thought. It felt like peak efficiency.
