Welcome back to the Leaderboard. In today's edition, we got takes from the team on: an SEO tool that is 10x cheaper than the rest, an app that aims to be a Pinterest but for developers, and fan AI tool that finally puts your bookmarks to good use. Let's dive in.
SEO on the cheap
Rankfast: A more affordable SEO tool
Rankfast is an SEO tool that’s 90% cheaper than established tools like Semrush and AhrefsI’ve been watching Dennis build Rankfast on Twitter for the past few months. While I love to see solo developers competing against SEO giants, Rankfast’s primary focus at launch leaves me desiring more. Alongside multiple 404s inside the app, simply showing aggregate backlinks and keywords for a domain doesn’t help me optimize, learn, or run SEO campaigns any better than my Google Search Console data. I’m sure he has plans to add much more and will be following along as he does because if he can provide the same feature set as Semrush and Ahrefs for a fraction of the price, he will definitely win a huge percentage of the market.
Pinterest for devs
CommandFor: "Pinterest for CLI commands"
This seems like a cool idea if it can grow to have novel or otherwise creative commands listed. As of now it's mostly simple commands that would be hard not to know. Many people will query an LLM for this, so I would want to find some novel or creative uses. I want this to actually be like Pinterest (showing me how to get the feng shui) and not just Wayfair (showing me the furniture).
No more cursed scrolling
Gem: Save and search social media bookmarks,
Digital bookmarks are like coupons — easy to let pile up, hard to actually put to good use. Gem proposes an AI-integrated solution that automatically pulls the relevant information from a given bookmark (e.g. ingredients for a recipe or restaurant address) and saves it into searchable lists categorized by theme. The app seems useful as is, though I think an integration that can turn lists into action plans would level it up. Turn those random recipe collections into dinner party menus. Make those restaurant and cafe addresses into a walkable tourist itinerary. Make my endless scrolling feel less cursed. Please.

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.
