From Polite AI to PoliteHub – Evolving Collaboration with Multi-AI Workspaces

As our team s journey with Polite AI unfolded, we realized that collaboration isn t just about having more competent assistants, but about connecting people, knowledge, and workflows across the entire organization. That s why we re excited to announce our transition from Polite AI to PoliteHub a bold step forward in building the all-in-one AI workspace for modern teams.

PoliteHub is more than an alternative to Slack or Discord. It s a vision for a unified platform where teams can chat, collaborate, and harness the best AI models (GPT-4, Gemini, Claude, DeepSeek, and more) in a secure, flexible workspace.

We believe the future of productivity lies in not just adopting AI, but making it accessible and collaborative for every member of your team from projects and docs, to workflow automation, to building your intelligent assistants.

Our mission with PoliteHub is simple:

πŸš€ PoliteAI is evolving: A Smarter Alternative to Slack

Hey Product Hunt ,

We started PoliteAI as an AI Hub for teams, giving access to GPT, Claude, Gemini, and more. But teams weren t just chatting with AI, they were collaborating.

So we re making a bold shift.

I’m preparing to launch a product that will compete with Slack and other collaboration tools.

Hi there ,
I am getting ready to launch a product that lets people chat in groups and focuses on work and workspace collaboration.

Like Slack and Discord, the pre-preview version will not have all the features they do. For now, it will only have text chat.

The difference is that it costs less and makes the most of AI's presence and support in the workflow.
I m a fan of Slack, but honestly, its pricing is a barrier for me, and I believe it s the same for any team.

I know it s not something new, but is this a good idea, and does the community also care about it and want to see it?

What’s been the trickiest part of getting AI to work reliably in production for you?

I am just curious about the real work, not the flashy demo stuff.

To be honest, it has not been about picking the right model for us; they are all great in their own way. It has been everything about the model:

  • Managing auth and region-specific routing (US vs EU)

  • Keeping user context in sync across Redis, Postgres, file storage

  • Dealing with random failures that only happen in production, never in dev

  • Making sure nothing breaks when we swap one model out for another

Some days it feels like we re duct-taping 10 systems together just to answer one user request cleanly.

What's the one AI feature you wish existed but doesn't yet?

Hey everyone!

As AI tools are proliferating everywhere, I'm curious about what one AI capability you wish existed but haven't found yet?

For me, it's an AI that can truly understand context across multiple apps and help me automate workflows without breaking when I make a small change.
What about you? What AI gap are you hoping someone will fill in 2025?

Bring JIRA to Life with Polite AI

Polite AI supports seamless integration with JIRA, helping users stay grounded in real tasks while working with AI. Rather than trying to replace your project management tools, this integration bridges the gap between natural conversation and structured work.

Whenever a JIRA issue key is mentioned in a conversation, Polite AI can:

  • Fetch relevant context, including the title, description, status, and assignee.

  • Understand what s being discussed and respond accordingly.

  • Follow the actual flow of your project instead of giving vague suggestions.

  • Recognize blockers and assist with next steps based on the current state of your sprint.

Polite AI also lets you create JIRA tickets directly from the Editor Publish interface. Whether generated by AI or written manually, any insight can be turned into a task without leaving the workspace. This makes it faster and easier to go from idea to action.
JIRA is just one of several external services already integrated with Polite AI, alongside platforms such as Confluence, Google Drive, and others. These integrations provide the assistant with the necessary context to work seamlessly within your existing workflow. When AI understands the tools you use every day, it becomes part of how real work gets done.

Collaborate with GPT, Claude, Gemini & more β€” in one unified chat workspace

Hi Product Hunt friends

PoliteAI enables you to chat across multiple AI models in a single thread, allowing you to compare how ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or Grok handle the same prompt without switching tools. It s fast, flexible, and surprisingly helpful in refining ideas or validating responses.

AI for works - We built a shared AI workspace for teams who use AI every day

Hey Product Hunt

I m Alex, founder of PoliteAI.

This project started from something pretty simple: our team was using ChatGPT a lot, and it quickly turned into a mess.

I built an AI workspace to use GPT, Claude, Gemini, and other models in one place.

I got tired of switching between different AI chat tools and managing multiple API keys just to get work done.

Paying $87/Month for AI? We Were Too β€” So We Created PoliteAI

After months of development and improvement, we are pleased to present Polite AI: a single platform enabling teams to work with strong AI assistants.

What makes Polite AI different?

  • Use your API keys No vendor lock-in

  • Create shared assistants with custom instructions, knowledge, and skills

  • Collaborate within a project workspace, with team-based access

  • Supports multi-model routing across GPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, Xai, etc.

Polite AI was born out of our frustration with the fragmented AI landscape. We wanted a platform where teams could work with powerful AI models together without having to piece everything together themselves.
