About

I've tried every low-code tool on the market and not a single one does a good job integrating with existing production codebases. I'm obsessed with solving this problem at Tempo and using AI to turn anyone into a 10X engineer. Spent the last 5 years as founding engineer and head of product at Perpetua ($150M exit). Previously product fellow at Social Capital and engineer on the Visual Studio team at Microsoft.

Golden Kitty Awards - Best developer tools launched in 2024?

As we're approaching the long-awaited Golden Kitty Awards, I'm dropping here some of my favorite developer tools launched on Product Hunt in 2024:

  • @Supabase - The open-source Firebase alternative went GA last April and had a *stellar* launch: #1 Product of the Day, #1 Product of the Week, #1 Product of the Month!

  • @bolt.new - Last year, @v0 by Vercel was nominee, and I predict the alternative built by StackBlitz, #1 Product of the Day, #2 Product of the Week, and #9 Product of the Month, hit the list this year

  • @Langfuse 2.0 - The open-source LLM engineering platform, best AI Infra Product of the Year in 2023, had another amazing launch this year: #1 Product of the Day, #8 Product of the Week.

  • @Helicone AI - The open-source LLM observability platform had a great launch last August: #1 Product of the Day, #2 Product of the Week.

  • @Tempo - Discovered during the Mega Launch Week, this code-first Figma alternative kept momentum on Product Hunt last December: #1 Product of the Day, #3 Product of the Week.

I could possibly think of more developer tools that ranked really well: @Octomind (#1 Product of the Day), @Pullpo.io (#2 Product of the Day), @Inkeep (#3 Product of the Day), @Corbado (#4 Product of the Day), @MotherDuck (#5 Product of the Day)...
How about you? What are your predictions for this 2025 GKA edition?
