Each product profile includes the launch story, visual preview, and direct product link so readers can move from discovery to evaluation quickly.
01
Developers use your APIs. Now agents do too. Elva discovers APIs directly from your code, lets you choose what each audience can use, and runs your MCP servers with authentication and analytics built in. You can track agent activity, see how your APIs are being used, and review changes as your code evolves. It gives you the visibility and control you need to open your product to AI agents without losing security or oversight.
02
Anysite.io is a B2B data layer that lives inside the AI agent you already use. Just ask your agent for the list you need, and Anysite.io delivers it: companies filtered by geography, industry, and size, plus the people inside them, their current job titles, and their email addresses. There are no queries to write and no scrapers to maintain. It works through MCP or REST API inside Claude, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode, and other agents. Plug it in and launch your outbound data collection the same day.
03
The gap between 1.5x and 100x isn't speed, it's trust. AI agents can generate code 100x faster than humans write it, but your team can't review all of it. EasySpecs documents undocumented codebases and turns them into trustworthy specifications, so spec review becomes your new merge request review. It grounds your agents in reality, lets you scale agentic development without babysitting, and gives your team a foundation you document once. You review specs with Oracles and Rubrics, and then you can ship code you actually verified, not code you hoped was right.
04
49Agents IDE gives you a 2D canvas where every agent, terminal, repo, and machine you own lives on a single map that you build yourself. Instead of keeping track of a maze of tabs, you arrange your work like city itself. That makes it easier to remember where things live, even weeks or days later. It is a practical way to reduce the mental weight of constantly switching between tabs and staying focused on what matters.
05
Your team has done months of work with AI assistants, and each assistant keeps its own record. Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and OpenCode all store a full history, but none of them can read the others. Chat Recall uses one command to read what they wrote and turn it into a single searchable history. No more digging through separate logs. Passwords are stripped out before anything leaves your computer. Your assistant can search that history itself, so it stops asking what you decided last month. It also finds keys that leaked into old chats and checks which ones still work.
06
Cortex is an open source API knowledge layer. It takes your API specs from OpenAPI, AsyncAPI, GraphQL, gRPC, and OpenRPC and turns them into interactive documentation, typed SDKs in 11 programming languages, and MCP servers for AI agents. This means your API becomes easier to explore, integrate, and automate. Instead of juggling multiple tools, Cortex brings everything together in one place, saving time and reducing friction for developers and AI systems alike.
07
Most software gets designed twice: first as a picture, then again in code. That's where the intent gets lost. Modeinspect is an AI-powered design canvas that lets you work with the real thing from the start. Connect your codebase, open an existing screen, and design using your actual components, tokens, live data, states, and breakpoints. You can explore variations with AI, keep the details that matter, and when you're ready, publish your changes live or send them to engineering for review. You stay in control of when things go live. The canvas isn't the destination; the product is. Modeinspect bridges the gap between design and development, so what you see is truly what you get.
08
Stackness is where developers and vibe coders show off the tools, workflows, and approaches they build with. You can create a stack profile that you share as a single link, post your moves, follow people whose taste you trust, and watch tools rise and fall in popularity. It's free and comes with an MCP server for deeper integration. Join the community to discover new tools and see what others are using.
09
Wokyintosh is a free, open-source macOS dashboard inspired by the classic Macintosh. It shows a large clock and date, local weather, Apple Music and Spotify Now Playing with artwork, and live CPU, RAM, SSD, and network stats. I built it for my Wokyis M5 Retro Dock Station after months of not finding the dashboard I wanted, even among paid apps. It brings a nostalgic look with modern functionality, all at no cost.

Nimbleway Web Search Agents are expert web crawling and research agents built for your specific domain, whether that is company enrichment, regulations research, or something else. They self-learn your use case over time, so they can go deeper into the sources that matter most to you. That gives your AI systems richer and more relevant web context than a generic search tool. To get started, just give your AI this link: https://docs.nimbleway.com/agent-onboarding.md
