Hi Product Hunt 👋
I’m Rebeca, co-founder of IamWendi.ai.
I’m completely new here, and honestly, I’m more of a TikTok person than an X person, so forgive me if this isn’t the perfectly polished Product Hunt intro you’re used to 😅
This product comes from an experienced pain, probably one of the worst ones I've gone through. And since it happened, I've learned how much it affects a lot of other people everyday too.
Building a company is intense. And sometimes the hardest part isn’t product, growth, or fundraising, it’s what happens behind the scenes when relationships break, trust gets tested, and you still have to keep leading anyway.
What we’re building is deeply shaped by that.
Wendi AI is the managers personal workspace built to help leaders make better decisions, understand what’s really happening in their teams, and lead with more clarity when things feel messy, heavy, or ambiguous.
Because leadership can be incredibly lonely. And when you’re carrying the weight of people, performance, and big decisions, you need more than dashboards and gut instinct.
You need something that helps you think and knows the context of your team, company and your own leadership style.
This launch is a bit last-minute, a bit chaotic, but the product is very real and we've got paying customers using it.
And if I'm honest, the whole startup journey has been like this.
We’re really happy to be here, even if we arrived in a rush.
If you’re checking us out today, thank you.
If you have feedback, questions, skepticism, or curiosity, I’m here, and I’d genuinely love to hear it.
Thanks for giving a PH newcomer a chance 💛

@rebeca_garcia_wendiai @ben_mcloughlin Congrats on launching, the video explainer is really good!
Can you say more about how your current customers are using it and the problems you're solving for them?
p.s. I like the honest intro! I'm sure a bunch of founders have had that moment where they just wanted to make a cool product and now they're trying to urgently learn about some HR minutia 😆

Thank you @paulantwilliams - really glad the video resonated.
We're seeing two really distinct patterns in how people use Wendi right now:
The first is the technical manager, someone who's coding 8–10 hours a day, deeply heads-down, and has a team of developers they also need to show up for or manage. For them, Wendi becomes a separate AI memory. They're not prompting it with context, they're not re-explaining who's who and what happened last week, Wendi already knows. It means they can actually be present with their team without it costing them cognitive overhead they don't have.
The second is the manager navigating an HR moment. That can be anything from giving difficult feedback, handling a conflict, managing someone through poor performance all the way to preparing to let someone go for the first time. Documenting correctly, following procedure, knowing what to say and what not to say. These are the situations where managers feel most alone and most exposed. Wendi helps them feel prepared and protect the business.
And yes to your PS, the midnight HR googling is extremely real 😂 that's basically the founding story in one sentence.
The HR-safe guidance part caught my attention. When I managed a team, the trickiest moments were not the big decisions but the small everyday ones — how to phrase performance feedback without crossing a line, when to escalate vs handle it yourself. Does Wendi help with those in-the-moment calls, or is it more of a post-meeting reflection tool?

You are most definitely right @klara_minarikova, those everyday decisions make all the difference managing a team.
Right now Wendi is most powerful in two moments: before and after the conversation. However Wendi's context layer is designed to proactively prompt managers with heads up before things escalate. Most managers wing those conversations because they don't have time to prepare properly, Wendi makes prep fast enough that you actually do it.
We are considering adding the in-the-moment real-time guidance, but it's not live yet.
A part of us believes this would be very helpful, specially for inexperienced managers and another one believes it would make conversations feel less human, what do you think?
