👋🏻 Hey Product Hunt Community! We are super excited to introduce SwarmStack—an AI agent designed to help you plan your product journey from ideation all the way to commercialization. Got a rough product idea? SwarmStack guides you through the entire process: * Refine your concept by asking targeted questions such as target audience and key features. * Conduct in-depth research and draft detailed, step-by-step execution plans. * Recommend the best tools (currently sourced from Product Hunt!) for every stage of your journey. You can keep refining your idea or dive deeper into specific areas as needed. Why we built SwarmStack As indie hackers and a tech-savvy startup team, we realized that our expertise only goes so far. Coding is just a small part of building a successful product. Covering all aspects as growth—from marketing to sales—can be costly and time-consuming. We needed an advisor to guide us through each step of building and commercializing a product, while also recommending the best tools to execute at each stage. That's when we thought: why not build an AI agent that not only helps us but also benefits others facing similar challenges? So here we are. And the best part? It's completely free! Try it out at 👉 https://epsilla.com/swarmstack and let us know your thoughts. Your feedback is invaluable, and we're here to answer any questions! But we're just getting started! Our vision extends beyond product execution advice and tool recommendations. Next, we're working on empowering AI agents to actually use these tools and handle the detailed work—leaving you to focus on your big ideas, guide the AI agents for execution, evaluate their work, and steer the direction. PS1: We believe Product Hunt is a treasure trove of innovative products, but current search limitations hold back its potential. That's why we've combined AI multi-agent swarm intelligence and AI-powered search on this treasure trove to help indie hackers like us find the tools they need, bring their ideas to life faster and more efficiently. PS2: We built SwarmStack on our AI agent platform, Epsilla (https://epsilla.com), without writing a single line of code (well, not precisely, cuz natural language is the new programming language).

congrats on the launch! Seems to give pretty good inspo. I'd maybe suggest to dial down the number of product suggestions though – it was suggesting a load of kinda similar products as the product I asked it to work on, but a lot looked pretty bad and had not many upvotes.
Richard Song
@jonnymiles Thank you for the feedback! We've just updated our recommendation algorithm to include only products with over 50 upvotes, ensuring higher quality and relevance in the suggestions.
Eric Yang
@jonnymiles Thanks for your feedback, we will improve the issue you mentioned as well as other experience in the agent.

Cool tool! But you really do have to get into Marketing and even Design a bit if you are a small Start-up. Tools, even AI ones, can only get you so far. If you care about bringing your product to people you have to know about that process.
Eric Yang
Hi @michacassola, surely there are lots of work we need to do, thanks so much for your support and suggestion!
Richard Song
@michacassola Thank you for your support, Micha! You're absolutely right — we often don’t know what we don’t know, which is why having an advisor for marketing, sales, growth, and all business-oriented insights is so essential. The strength of LLMs lies in their ability to democratize knowledge with the right prompts, breaking down information barriers and helping individuals uncover what they don’t yet know. We’re committed to refining and automating this process to make the knowledge required for product development and commercialization more accessible and efficient.

I was wondering how you handled the LLM that it actually gives useful "recommendations" from what I have built I always saw that all recommendations are a bit repetitive and often result in the same outputs. Meaning you need to feed it the context of what it just recommended to you since it often just gives you the same responses. Any experience with that?
Eric Yang
Hi @hadjimina, thanks so much for your feedback, let me check your case about the same response.

This could save countless hours for people like me trying to bootstrap projects. Question. How do you prioritize the PH tools it recommends? Is it based on popularity, ratings, or something else?
Jalanie Tawantawan
This looks awesome tool! Congrats on the launch!
Daniel Zaitzow
Launching soon!
@renchu_song Congrats on the launch! In a sea of AI products - how does this differentaite from an ever improving GPT heavy world.
Richard Song
@dzaitzow Thanks for the support, Daniel! Rather than competing directly with general-purpose chat agents like ChatGPT, SwarmStack is laser-focused on a niche: guiding product planning and recommending relevant tools at each stage of development. To serve this purpose, we designed a specialized workflow tailored to the product-building journey and built a curated tool repository sourced from ProductHunt. Features like deep-dive starter questions, in-message recommendations, and side-by-side tool page visualizations are all intentionally crafted to address this specific use case. SwarmStack is all about delivering targeted, actionable insights rather than broad, generalized responses. And the secret sauce is that SwarmStack is built on our Epsilla platform, which means the agent workflow and UI configuration can be easily adjusted to adapt to user needs and feedback.
Eric Yang
Hi, @dzaitzow , thanks for your support and feedback, we built this easily to use based on our Epsilla platform, feel free to have a try https://epsilla.com!

💡 Bright idea
Huge congrats to the SwarmStack team on today's launch! I love how you're bringing AI-powered clarity to the often-messy world of product planning. Here's a curious question: How does SwarmStack balance suggesting 'innovative solutions' with avoiding overly complex or untested approaches that might sink a new product - can you share an example of this balance in action?
Richard Song
@ihuzaifashoukat Thank you for your support, Huzaifa! In our recommendation, our algorithm balances semantic matching of product profile, launch date, and number of upvotes, so that leveraging the multiple signals to judge and rank the results.

Don't be fooled by the mid-journey-esque branding there is a lot of power under the hood. I used one of the templates and it gave a lot of great information and advice. I can imagine as it grows it will become a lot more powerful especially when it gathers information from additional sources. I know of a few competitors that should have been shown but it only showed previous PH launches. When the branding is nicer and there are more sources of information I can see this being very popular.
Richard Song
@ty_robb Thank you so much for your support, Tyrone! You’re absolutely spot-on—right now, we’re still in the early stages, and there’s plenty of room to fine-tune the recommendation and ranking systems. We're actively working to improve these features, and as we gather more data and integrate additional sources, you'll see even smarter, more tailored recommendations coming your way. Stay tuned; we’re just getting started, and we have exciting enhancements in store!
