Varchive is a showcase of apps, websites, and experimental projects built with AI assistance, from passion projects to enterprise-grade apps. Varchive itself is built and maintained with assistance from Cursor and Codex. We've populated the archive with a few real-world apps—now it's time to submit yours.

Hey Product Hunters 👋 I'm Cameron Moll, co-maker of Varchive. Varchive (‘vibe’ + ‘archive’) is built and maintained by yours truly and Adam Spooner with heavy assistance from Cursor and Codex, a healthy dose of ChatGPT and Perplexity for content summaries, and a dash of Unicorn Studio for WebGL background effects. Cloudflare, Resend, and Vercel provide key parts of Varchive’s infrastructure. We’ve spent a few hundred hours (yes, that many!) prompting and refining what Cursor has written, yet flaws remain. Rather than trying to eliminate these entirely we offer Varchive as a model of what signficant AI assistance can and cannot do. We’re extremely proud of the end result. Lots of learnings along the way to say the least. We hope you’ll find inspiration on Varchive, and we especially hope you’ll submit your AI-assisted work.

@cameronmoll Huge respect for treating Varchive as a case study, not just a showcase. The honesty about hundreds of hours of prompting — and the decision to keep imperfections — really highlights what meaningful AI-assisted craft looks like today.
Curious: after working this closely with Cursor and Codex, what’s one workflow you’d never go back to doing without AI, and one you’d still keep mostly human?

Very cool to see a showcase built with Cursor and Codex showcasing apps built the same way.What kind of submissions are you most excited to see next — indie hacks, open-source tools, or enterprise use cases?

@pany_ai Enterprise especially. The industry needs to move beyond showcasing vibe-coded novelty apps to championing products where AI have played an important but measured role in world-class output.

It's like Dribbble, but for AI experiments...! Love this!

Great inspiration for those who still doubt if the need a CS degree to start building their dream project!

Great idea! A nice place for curated AI inspiration, and nicely built!
Like @chrismessina said, a Dribbble version of AI showcase project library!

Large language models have been advancing really fast in coding and software development lately, and a lot of companies are already using AI in their workflows. This is a great idea—it helps people understand the limits of what AI can do, instead of using it blindly.

Hopefully I won’t end up spending those 100+ hours you mentioned debugging my code with you 😄

Congrats on the launch! It’s refreshing to see a project that openly shows both the strengths and limits of AI-assisted creation.
