...shareable, debuggable automation in <1 hour.
Multiple attempts have failed with clear negative feedback. Continuing down this path would likely waste your time and resources when better opportunities exist elsewhere.
Don't build it.
You're entering a crowded space where many have tried to enable users to create automations using natural language. The high number of similar products (21) suggests significant interest, but also intense competition. Although there isn't a negative sentiment (no negative buy or use signals), neither is there a positive one, i.e. nobody explicitly said they would use or pay for these types of product in the comments. Products in this 'Run Away' category are usually associated with attempts that have failed and received clear negative feedback, so in general one should not pursue building in these categories. Several similar products receive criticism related to subpar UI, slow response times, unclear landing pages, security concerns, and bugs. Overall, entering this space requires a careful evaluation of differentiation and a strong focus on user experience and avoiding the pitfalls of prior art. Given the challenges and competitive landscape, you might want to think twice before investing significant time and resources into this specific direction.

If you are doing the same things over and over every day, you can try automating it with Nekton. Just describe what needs to be done in plain English, step by step. Nekton will then convert your steps into executable code using GPT 4, and run them in the cloud.Here is a sample workflow that shows service features - https://nekton.ai/start/162-Xcz3PZOkB8OhIeFlOeBTVAYou can automate many different things. Here are some things you can try:* Find top Reddit posts about AI and send them to my Discord channel.* Get Reddit posts that mention my project and create a tweet for them.* Assign my latest GitHub pull request to a person with the fewest open PRs in the project.* Automate technical support - https://nekton.ai/start/143-HpJtyXEzfRv7UKvqOHySkwFeatures:* Create reusable automated workflows.* Share workflows with other people - you can send them a link that will start a workflow.* Collect input with forms before running the automation.* Run your automation on a schedule. Workflows run in the cloud - no need to keep your browser open.* Use other services from your workflow. Nekton can securely store access tokens and other credentials needed to access outside services and apps.* Mix together manual and automated steps in a single workflow.Since the last post, we made multiple improvements to make it easier to automate things and connect to external services.I work on this project, and curious to know your thoughts!

It's Artem, Co-Founder of Bardeen here. We launched Magic Box today and I wanted to share it with you.It takes automation descriptions in English and turns them into in-browser playbooks that can either be launched via shortcut or triggered by an external event (such as an email arriving).I think it's pretty cool and it's ready for anyone to try it out (no waitlist!). We currently have about 30 productivity apps integrated. Please give it a shot and let us know what you think.Here is a Twitter thread if you're not in the mood for Youtube https://twitter.com/bardeenai/status/1648355825537421314Here is Bardeen installation link https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/bardeen-automate-m...

I’ve always wanted to be able to control my computer hands-free. Whether it’s when my hands are tied like when I’m eating, or when I’m away and want to run a routine task.There are existing tools that can execute predefined tasks on the browser, but they have several disadvantages:* They work by matching css selectors, so they are brittle -> increases the cost of maintenance.* Every task must be predefined - the tool won’t work on new websites without additional configuration.* It is tedious to specify a task consisting of many individual steps.To solve this, I built [name redacted] - it’s a chrome extension that uses GPT4-V to interpret the screen contents and deduce the sequence of steps needed to complete a task. See a demo here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyy7cMj-zHk.Here’s how it works:1. Ask [name redacted] to perform a task, like book me a dinner reservation at my favorite restaurant.2. [name redacted] takes a screenshot of the current page and some additional metadata about the interactive elements, and selects the next action to take to accomplish the task.3. The action is performed in the browser tab, and the process repeats until the task is done.In this way, [name redacted] can operate on all websites, perform any task a human can, and work mostly autonomously. It is a work in progress to get the accuracy correct, but I’m confident the approach is valid.Some things I’m excited for in the roadmap:* Voice in/out support* Record and rerun macros* Automated testing and reports with [name redacted]Let me know what you think and I’d love any feedback you have!
Worked on [name redacted], excited for new use cases.
