Trying to discover some hidden gems the community actually uses (not just the popular ones).
It s been a week since we launched Ovren - and I just want to say a genuine thank you.
We built Ovren because every team has backlog work that never makes it into a sprint. Not more ideas. Not more AI suggestions. Real engineering work that needs to get shipped.
So we launched Ovren as an AI engineering execution product for real backlog tasks: AI frontend and backend engineers that work inside your real codebase, execute scoped work, and return reviewable code updates.
Claude just shared this with me. "unrestricted push" - cannot get that to work. Anyone have workarounds? Trying to get my claude/claude code productivity up, so I have Claude tasking claude code, and using the newly-updated desktop app.
Every top athlete has one (Lebron James, Novak Djokovic, Serena Williams). And it turns out, so do most of the biggest names in tech.
Steve Jobs mentored Mark Zuckerberg in the early days of Facebook. Eric Schmidt mentored Larry Page and Sergey Brin at Google and later credited that relationship as one of the key reasons Google scaled the way it did. Bill Campbell, known as "the Coach of Silicon Valley," mentored Jobs, Schmidt, Jeff Bezos, and dozens of other founders throughout his career.
Big update. The optimizer can now prioritize high-traffic rooms over hallways and closets. Shoutout to @yotam_dahan who suggested density-aware placement.
Room type assignment - Right-click any room to tag it with a type from 46 presets across 6 building categories (commercial, residential, education, healthcare, hospitality, industrial). Each type carries a device density sourced from Cisco, IBC, and industry planning guides. Densities are fully adjustable per room. Custom type lets you name rooms whatever you want.
