GitHub launched a bot 🤖

GitHub isn't just for open-source projects: it's how most engineering teams collaborate on code and products.

Instead of guessing your way through git for hours, enroll in the recently-launched Github Learning Lab. The friendly bot will teach you about:

📝 Markdown, the internet's favorite formatting tool
🖥️ Github Pages to build free websites in minutes
😬 Merge conflicts, or when you and your coworkers disagree

This isn't the only bot-based education tool to launch recently: a SMS-based university launched last week, with entrepreneurship lessons from UCLA, USC, and Babson professors.

You can also learn a language over text with the Golden-Kitty-winning Duolingo Bots, powered by AI. 🤖

We asked 34 customers what Viktor does for them. Not one said chatbot.

They kept using words like colleague, coworker, team member. One CEO called it the glue holding their e-commerce business together, which is a lot, but also… you see why. It lives in Slack and plugs into 3,000+ tools, so instead of jumping between tabs, you just ask for the thing. Pull Stripe against HubSpot, check Sentry alerts, spin up a campaign brief, build a landing page, send a report upstairs. It all happens there.

It has already hit top 5 on Product Hunt with 130 comments, is SOC 2 certified, and your data does not train models.

One user said it was the first time AI felt like a real coworker, which is either exciting or slightly concerning depending on your week.
