Its just noise upon noise upon noise

Marketers selling marketing to marketers and AI selling AI to AI to marketers

Ive read the website and the guys responses here and I still have no idea what this does that the standard offerings by every LLM brand cant do

Is it just the Mumbai graphics?

Hey, thanks for the feedback and we're taking it seriously.

So we're updating the landing page. The core idea is being able to visualize the results of AI Automations and keeping that all in one shared space as a single source of truth for a team to view.

Man idk the words "I made" in your headline made it really seem like I wasn't just signing up to be notified when something is ready. Can i just have it now please

A lot of startups are using automated AI workflows for all sorts of things like sales dashboards, social media feed pulling, but currently there isn't any one workspace they can pull all that data in a visual form. Its all disjoint in that everyone basically generates and throws their artifacts away .

So I made an open-source workspace which allows you to pull in AI Automations in a visual way. This allows you to collaborate with your team members through sharing, as well as being able to all collaborate together with your agents all in one single place.

If you're interested in it you can check out the Github.

Is this similar to Gumloop, Zapier, Make, etc?

So what differentiates Biom from those tools is that the artifact is the workspace itself.

From agent workflows emerges editable, and sharable pages, tables and docs.

While the apps you mentioned are essentially canvases where you assemble the workflow, trigger, steps, connectors with the artifact being the run log.

Man your graphical choices are pretty difficult to bear.. too much noise not enough information

Agreed! Clicked the link because I was excited. This is a real gap especially when you have like 10 different agent providers and no idea what they are doing. But the UI here is just bad.

IMO the correct UI for this like gather.town. Give me a top down pokemon view of all my agents running and a leaderboard for activity / most recently run.

I've experimented with _Munder Difflin_, but it didn't provide enough transparency. I went back to micromanaging with _Agents of Empire._

I've also made extensive use of Hermes' built-in Kanban plugin, but somehow it's better than Munder Difflin's, even though I've _less_ transparency into individual Hermes kanban agents in "bot" mode.

These were on different projects, with different teams, so I probably have wildly different definitions of done, and wildly different expectations.

But now I might try Munder Difflin again...

Feedback taken!

I was trying to show that its was agent/harness agnostic since this is a big thing for us. But I realize it was really confusing.

But im happy to hear you were excited!

Thanks for the feedback, im getting on the fix right now!

Great to hear. A philosophy to keep in mind:

LLMs give back nothing but mountains of text. To provide value, you must provide something other than text.

We're fixing it right now! Thanks for the feedback

We live in the attention economy, we all lack time.

I scrolled this website in 20 seconds and I have no idea what it does. Seems like some sort of dynamic summarize widgets.

Hey man, thanks for the feedback. You're definitely right it could use some improvements in getting to the point. Currently fixing that right now.

It's more of a visualized source of truth for AI workflows / automations, acting as a source of truth for AI outputs for teams.

OK, but what does it do, without having to look at pages and pages of eye-searing graphics in the default AI style?

The one question you have to answer on your landing page, especially with AI making landing pages easy, is, "why should I care". And deliver that answer as quickly and clearly as possible.

Hey I'm the founder, I understand that the graphics dont really work well and are to noisy, i'm working on that right now.

We are workspace that prioritizes automations that output rich information instead of plain text. These automations work to make the workspace your single source of truth since they pull data and create dynamic views.

I'll try to make it clearer! Thanks for the feedback!

Maybe I'm dumb that that still doesn't make it clear to me

I see, definitely not dumb! We need to work on how we explain it.

People do marketing on socials, sales through emails, have a customer research pipeline.

We use automations to bring everything into once source of truth for your business and display it visually using HTML instead of a blocks of text.

Everything is tracked in our workspace through these agentic automations.

I think it is in the vein of n8n and zapier. If you have not heard of them, it may not be for you.

jduhking: an explanatory sentence as subheader may help.

Yes! It is essentially automations focused workspace that largely uses the automations to create your single source of truth and company brain.

I honestly don't get what problem this solves. I see a lot of pretty animations but I struggle to understand why I should care.
