01
Open Analytics is an open-source, privacy-first alternative to Google Analytics, built for both humans and AI agents. It tracks real-time visitors, funnels, and revenue with one lightweight, cookieless script. You can connect your analytics to AI tools through MCP. It's GDPR-friendly with no consent banner needed, and you can self-host it if you prefer full control.
02
Flunkey is a voice-first productivity tool for Windows that converts your spoken thoughts into text, useful actions, and remembered context as you work. It's similar to Wispr Flow but includes an AI feature that lets you ask questions easily. It's especially productive for students, researchers, and anyone who works with a lot of context. As a general-purpose tool, it fits seamlessly into your daily routine.
03
OpenLogi is a native, local-first alternative to Logitech Options+ built in Rust. It gives you full control to remap buttons, adjust DPI, and manage SmartShift over HID++—all without needing an account or sending any telemetry. Your settings stay on your machine.
04
Playcall is the open-source alternative to Gong, built specifically for AI-native GTM teams. It scores every call against your buyer context and your playbook, giving you actionable insights. It works with MEDDPICC, BANT, SPIN, or your own playbook, and you can upload it and let AI generate the rubric for you. You get evidence-backed scores, missed moments, and outcome tracking. Every score comes with a coaching drill for the rep to run next. Self-hostable, no lock-in, and no $30K/year contracts. Plus, you get 10+ baked-in features your team will actually use, not just collect dust.
05
Most agentic coding tools hand you a chat log. Flare hands you the map. Every file is a node, every import an edge, with a real terminal underneath where you run claude, codex, or opencode. The graph updates live as the agent edits, attributes every write to whoever made it, and pulls you in when it rewrites something the rest of the app imports. Change bursts snapshot to local history you can diff and revert. Agents take work from a board over MCP. Your machine. No account. MIT licensed.
