gm winners and welcome back to the Leaderboard! In today's edition: A game for 10x developers, a place to explore AI characters, and a music app that helps you lock in. Let's dive in.
Time to git good
GitQuest: A gamified leaderboard for GitHub commits.
I love games - I like even more when they make me productive. GitQuest is a great way to gamify building while encouraging your friends to do the same. It's super simple too, a leaderboard based on your GitHub activity and nothing needed from your end. Honestly, using a GitHub repo for the foundation of a productivity tool makes a lot of sense. Curious who will be number one now hehe.
AI nostalgia
Scena - A platform to create, share & meet AI personas
I like this because it takes AI out of the standard interface (chat) and allows it to explore a proven medium from decades ago. I’m not sure if this specific company will become the dominant player, but seeing this makes me think about what an AI-driven Sims, Roller Coaster Tycoon, or—dare I say—a personal childhood favorite, Runescape, might look like. Scena is exploring this concept on the fringes, and I applaud the team for stepping forward as one of the leaders boldly declaring, “We don’t want another AI chat interface.”
Less is more
Project Ambience: Get deep work done with AI-tailored ambience mixes.
If you’ve ever wasted time scrolling for the perfect background noise only to get sucked into a YouTube vortex (been there), Project Ambience makes a strong case for simplicity. It tailors ambience mixes to your task—working, studying, whatever—and even adds a Pomodoro timer to keep you focused. It’s clever, but I wonder if adding more features, like task lists or user-generated mixes, might overcomplicate something that works because it’s so straightforward. Sometimes, less really is more.
One mic for every app

Typing is overrated.
Wispr Flow lets you write everywhere just by speaking — email, Slack, Notion, ChatGPT, even your IDE. No app-hopping. No copy-paste gymnastics. Just talk.
Flow edits as you speak, transforming your words into polished writing in real time. The result? Clean, sendable text at up to 4× the speed of typing.
It’s not another writing app. It’s a layer that quietly makes everything you do faster.
Live on Mac, Windows, and iPhone. Android coming soon. 🎙️💨
