I love building products. But videos? That s hard.

So I started studying others.

Here are 7 AI launch videos that nail storytelling and simplicity last week in my opinion:

1. @Higgsfield AI video editing shown through clean, iterative results.

I ve been working on some AI projects recently things like scheduled agents, API responders, and multi-agent systems that need to run continuously. One of the biggest headaches I ve run into is deployment.

Most cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, etc.) are built for stateless apps or short-lived functions. But for long-running, stateful agents, the kind that need to persist data, auto-recover from crashes, and expose custom endpoints it gets surprisingly messy. I ve spent so much time setting up VMs, Docker configs, and recovery logic than actually writing agent behavior logic.

I ll go first.

This was at a previous company, selling B2B SaaS infrastructure. We had strong early traction, a few marquis accounts and constant user feedback. One theme kept popping up: people loved the idea and related to the need but when they tried to use the product in certain ways, it didn't easily do what it was supposed to.

I want to hit an api with some text and get a "likekyhood of ai generated" score. 
does this exist already? I would expect to have to pay which is fine!

I was inspired by @chrismessina to build my own Raycast extensions after he released his own! I have been using Raycast a lot more thanks to a gentle nudge from @jakecrump (and @Raycast's latest AI releases), so I knew I wanted to build my own Raycast extension at some point.

There was a lot of news about Cyberpunk for Mac released and I wanted to search if there was a deal for it on PC. I instinctively went to search Raycast .but it wasn t there. So my extension idea was born!

My goal was simple: make it easier to hunt for video game deals right from the Raycast command bar. What followed was a rapid journey of prototyping, debugging, and learning. I m excited to share what I learned and hope it will encourage more makers to ship their ideas.
You can view my IsThereAnyDeal (ITAD) Extension on GitHub here! I will launch it when it's approved on the Raycast store :) I'll publish a more in-depth, nerdy guide later. But for now...here's my experience building a Raycast Extension!

I've been experimenting with different approaches to customer outreach for my SaaS, and I'm curious what's working for others.

My current challenge: Balancing automation with authentic relationship building. I've tried tools like Waalaxy for LinkedIn outreach (fast but feels spammy, 1% reply rate) versus manual research and personalized messages (time-intensive but doesn't scale).

No ERP. No full-time ops lead. No perfect processes.

Just Notion docs, Google Sheets, Slack chaos and a growing to-do list.

You re hiring. Selling. Delivering. Building.

When you scroll back through your chat box trying to restore an earlier version of your project have you ever thought:

"I wish I could actually see how this version evolved from previous ones and just jump back to the better one whenever I need to."

Well, that s exactly what the new Trickle 2.0 lets you do and I m honestly thrilled about it.

There s an interesting trend unfolding.

Most major AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude etc.) started with friendly $20/month plans. It felt accessible, almost casual.

Common Sense Media published a report on this topic, and it reminded me of how big a bubble I live in.

When Meta announced back in 2024/2025 that they wanted to create AI avatars to boost engagement, I was skeptic, but data speaks clearly  young people enjoy AI interaction.

You ve built something new. It solves a real problem. The team s excited, you ve shipped it, the feature s live...

And then crickets.
