A platform ( canivibecodeit) recently went viral on X for showing which paid tools you could realistically rebuild yourself.

Design tools, ChatGPT, or Claude are obviously hard to replace. But invoice tools, forms, simple CMSs, or dictation apps seem much more realistic.

Curious to crowd-check something any researchers/analysts here who still have to loop in an external team (or a colleague) just to get basic data pulls, literature reviews, or first-pass analysis done? Not the deep, judgment-heavy stuff just the grunt work that eats days before the "real" research even starts.

If that's you what's the actual bottleneck?

• Is it that the tooling/agents just aren't there yet?

• Is it trust you don't believe the output without a human checking it?

• Or is it that setting up an agent/pipeline yourself takes longer than just asking a person?

Trying to figure out where an out-of-box research agent would genuinely save time vs. where people still want (and will keep wanting) a human in the loop.

After creating an account on Product Hunt, opening it slowly became a daily habit for me.
Checking new products, reading discussions, discovering what others are building...
One day I noticed there s a day streak feature I didn t even know about and honestly was surprised =D
After launching RunEvr, opening Product Hunt became even more exciting - now we're not only discovering products, but also watching our own journey and growth here.
Curious: what makes you the most come back to Product Hunt every day?
Is it:
discovering new products?
joining discussions?
supporting makers?
following trends?
Something else?
