Yeah we totally agree. That's why we work on the end-to-end app, not on a single prompt. You pick what parameters become knobs in the frontend. So if you have a giant app with 10 parameters (say 5 prompts, 5 numbers), great, wrap those and they become knobs on our frontend. We override during the actual end-to-end testing execution kinda like a Statsig / Launchdarkly (only with typing).

Hey HN - Doug from Gentrace here.We originally launched Gentrace via Show HN in August of 2023.Since then, a million products have emerged in the LLM ops category. And what we've noticed is that almost none of them solve the core workflow: testing prompts, parameters, and other changes in your actual app, from a frontend where people can collaborate on the dataset, evals, or experiments to be...
Awesome work Cai and Andy. Do you have advice on structuring functions for best results? (eg, is it a good idea to give my agent access to things like a calculator "in case it needs it" or be careful about spoon-feeding it the tools I think it needs)

I understand the cartoony feedback. We're working on improving the quality of the avatars to be more adult / work focused. We do believe in avatars - they are one of the key points in our product - because we believe that being on video all day is soul crushing, but audio-only feels disconnected. The avatar provides privacy and personality at the same time. FWIW, you can turn on video if you want it too, we just default to the avatar.
The "where's the demo video" has been consistent feedback on this thread and we'll probably put something together.
We have a lot of Japanese users (organically, over 25% of our users) so we internationalized.
ProductHunt leaderboard was a weekend project for me... I won't lie, there's not much connection, just some fun.
Hey there - there is a search button that allows you to search messages. Is that not working for you? Reach out to us via the Pesto team chat in the app for support on this.
I am the author. FWIW I totally understand where you are coming from; I'm not happy with our explanation of "What is Pesto?". We will take our own pass on refining this, and I'd also appreciate if you tried it and gave me your thoughts on it. Right now "digital workplace" is the best we have.
The core concept is "rooms" - like Discord voice channels, only way more flexible and built for remote workers. They can be traditional video conferencing, lofi spaces for hanging out, or 2d spaces with spatial audio.
The goal is to give teams a flexible workplace consisting of a series of rooms purpose-built for their workflows.
We are focused on rooms, which are audio-first spaces, not text conversations like Slack. Rooms are flexible containers that can be as simple as a traditional video conference, or more sophisticated, eg walk around on a map or listen to lofi music.
You can't look at screen share without permission - this is clearly something we screwed up in the landing animation. It's supposed to show Katherine sharing her own screen.
Pricing is coming soon and will free tier + paid tier (think like Slack / Zoom pricing).
There are parallels to Discord; the HN audience knows Discord well and so if we were only trying to appeal to this audience we would probably market it that way. A large chunk (possibly the majority) of our existing users don't know about Discord though and it doesn't make sense to purely market it in relation to that.
There are also some noticeable differences, particularly:
- integrations are focused on work products, eg calendar, rather than what games you are playing etc
- rooms (similar to Discord voice channel) can be shared on a calendar for guests
- we prioritize different things in screenshare (quality over FPS, since it's for work not gaming)
We plan on introducing a paid tier soon. Think Slack / Zoom pricing, free tier + paid tier model. We haven't totally figured it out yet.
Hey Vincent - the GIF is supposed to show Katherine joining a room and sharing her own screen. You cannot force Katherine to share her screen.

You can manually set a status :)
Pragli is totally free until at least June 1 to be helpful during COVID-19 - we haven't determined our pricing model past then, but it will probably resemble Zoom or Slack (a free tier + a paid tier that's priced per user per month).
By default, the avatar grays out eventually if you don't interact with your computer, but otherwise is static. You can optionally instruct Pragli to use local facial recognition to move when you move and smile when you smile. Some users really like it and it looks more lively in demos, but FWIW the strong majority of our users are on keyboard/mouse. Here's a blog post I did a while ago about the facial recognition mode:

Awesome! Let me know how it goes.
Pragli is totally free until at least June 1. At some point, we will implement a free-forever tier + paid tier. We aren't sure what the pricing for the paid tier will be, but it will probably look like Slack / Zoom ($ per user per month).
Author here - we put up the logos for companies where members of the company use Pragli. We note in our terms of service that we reserve the right to do this, but we are happy to remove any logos of companies who request not to be used as such.
