Founder Radar · PAST 24 HOURS

Dev tools dominated 24-hour launches with 10 new projects; AI agents and productivity tools round out the wave, but infrastructure gaps remain unsolved.

18 launches in 24 hours across dev tools, AI agents, and productivity. Dev tools led with 10 releases (searchable JSON compression, 3D dependency visualization, video-to-code extraction); all are open-source or freemium mechanics. Zero funding rounds detected. No India activity.

Patterns That Formed

Dev Tools

RISING
+4
10 LAUNCHESOSSGLOBAL

Ten dev tool launches in 24 hours, dominated by open-source mechanics: See (searchable JSON compression), CodeLayers (3D codebase visualization), Script Snap (video-to-code extraction), Cc-md (Obsidian sync), Elecxzy (Emacs-like editor), and Velo (email client in Rust). The gap: none address the fundamental handoff between local development environments and production observability; all optimize single-player or local-first workflows.

7-day momentum

AI Agents

RISING
3 LAUNCHESOSSGLOBAL

Three AI agent launches emerged: Eliezer (7K LOC self-hosted agent PWA), MailCat (email service for agents), Agent Passport (OAuth-like identity verification for agents). The gap: agent-to-agent trust and identity verification is fragmented; Agent Passport addresses one dimension, but no solution exists for cross-provider agent delegation or audit trails.

7-day momentum

AI Productivity

RISING
3 LAUNCHESOSSGLOBAL

Three AI productivity projects launched: GenPPT AI (presentation generation), I built a 55K (email marketing knowledge base + Claude skill), AI Council (multi-model deliberation in browser). The gap: no solution abstracts reasoning across async workflows; all three are point tools for synchronous task execution.
