Ara is an AI employee, not a chatbot. Invite it to Slack and get finished spreadsheets, decks, code, and email drafts back from a worker with its own computer and memory. Review its work and click Approve before anything leaves your company. For this launch we gave Ara one job: "Astra, launch us on Product Hunt." GPT-6 Astra wrote the copy, gallery, and video you see here. Free to start with 20 credits, no card.

What real task does your product handle with GPT-6 Astra?

Maker

Ara is an AI employee that lives in Slack. When a teammate starts a request with the word "Astra", Ara routes that job to GPT-6 Astra: it plans the task, runs it on its own sandboxed computer (spreadsheets, decks, code, research, email drafts), and returns the finished files with a receipt (time, tokens, what it learned). Anything outbound waits for a human Approve/Reject in the thread. For this launch we gave Ara the job "Astra, launch us on Product Hunt": GPT-6 Astra wrote the tagline, description, first comment, five gallery slides, the 40-second video script, and the launch-day playbook that you see in this submission.

We're GRINDA AI, a team in Seoul building Ara. For this launch, we gave our own product a job: "Astra, launch us on Product Hunt." That first word chooses the model. Ara routed the request to GPT-6 Astra, which prepared the launch copy, gallery content, video script, and launch-day playbook you're seeing here. What surprised us was how much of a launch happens around the headline. We needed a story that fit across five slides, a video that worked without sound, and a plan for answering questions all day. This gave us one package to review. We use Ara for the less public work, too: cold-email drafts, weekly reports, customer quotes, and short-form videos. We assign the job in Slack; Ara works on its own sandboxed computer and returns files with a receipt showing time, tokens, and what it learned. Its memory keeps both working instructions and facts about our company, which we can inspect and edit. We still have to judge whether the work is right. Ara can misunderstand a brief, and a finished file can contain mistakes. Before anything leaves the company, its workflow waits for a person to click Approve or Reject in the thread. The first 20 credits are free, no card. What recurring job would you give Ara first, and what would you check before approving it? 40-second walkthrough (silent, captions on screen):
