Imagine Spotlight with superpowers... That is what Stepsailor's AI Command Bar is aiming for. Let your user describe what it wants to do and the command bar will run the required actions automatically within your product. No need for prompt engineering.
I've been exploring AI tools for improving user experience, and AI Command Bar really stands out. The ability to convert natural language into actions without needing complex prompts is incredibly useful.
Stepsailor's AI Command Bar is a fantastic tool for simplifying user interactions within a product. By allowing users to simply describe what they want to do, it eliminates the need for complex prompts or technical knowledge. It feels like an intuitive, powerful assistant that makes the user experience seamless and efficient.

Hey people!
I am Pascal, technical co-founder of Stepsailor.
I gotta say... launching this product... even having the idea of building this wasn't an easy road. In fact, there is a small graveyard of products that haven't made it to Product Hunt.
So here I am, launching my first hunt! I realised today's products all turn out to be chat interfaces. And there is a good reason for that. Language is a powerful user interface.
Essentially, there is no onboarding required since you only have to explain the gist of it so the user knows what to ask.
But there are many different kinds of products out there. Visualisations will always have a spot. But buttons and input fields surely will look different in the future.
When developing products in reality, you don't want to learn or hire another specialist that creates a chat interface that controls your product.
You want to focus on the core value of your product... the business logic, and make it accessible quickly.
So I want to bring AI into SaaS products in the right way. DX first and simple APIs. Control over what model is used and where it's located.
The AI Command Bar is just the beginning.
Please let me know what you think about it!

@pascal_lohscheidt1 Congrats on the first launch Pascal!

Big congrats on your first launch, Pascal! 🎉
The idea behind Stepsailor and the AI Command Bar really resonates — not every product should be reduced to a chatbot. Giving devs a dead-simple way to integrate AI with thoughtful DX and model flexibility feels like the right move in a landscape that’s drowning in rigid AI wrappers.
Love that you’re thinking about how AI should show up in SaaS — not just that it should. Looking forward to seeing how this evolves beyond the Command Bar. Keep sailing forward — you’ve already crossed the hardest part 🚀⚓

@williamrobertscott thank you so much for encouraging! I really appreciate it.
I think I haven't yet completely solved it. But I am agreeing that the how is a very important question.
I honestly dislike the view on AI products like "operator" since they imagine you can just understand products purely visually. However each SaaS product has a core value because it solves a problem. So the AI solutions for that have to bent to solve the problem and most often need that specific domain knowledge to solve it.
Maybe thats a bit off topic though ;)

Congrats on your first Product Hunt launch, Pascal! 🎉 Really respect the journey—and the persistence it takes to ship. You're absolutely right: language as a UI is powerful, but integrating it meaningfully into SaaS without losing control or adding complexity is still a huge gap. Stepsailor feels like a thoughtful solution for devs who want to keep focus on core value while still enabling intuitive, AI-driven interfaces.
How customizable is the AI Command Bar in terms of commands, branding, and model choice?

@susaana_s Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment! I appreciate it a lot!
In regards to your questions. The commands itself are highly customisable already.
About branding and model choice... the goal for this month is to make this solution customisable with css variables. And even let the developer decide how deep "models" think or which models to use.
In other words the command bar should be integrate-able into every product without destroying any branding by 1st of May :)
So you are spot on with your question!

@pascal_lohscheidt1 Looking forward to try it :)
