Keep your eyes to yourself

Plus, five AI tools you may have missed

WELCOME

Happy Tuesday, legends. Welcome back to another edition of The Frontier — our weekly newsletter covering the best new AI launches on Product Hunt. This week, we’ve got a bunch of new launches you out to know about, and a look at the recent Oscars AI announcement.

A browser that does the work for you

TOP LAUNCHES

Strawberry is built to research across hundreds of sites, summarize what matters, take meeting notes, and help you write in your own voice. It’s trying to be less of a browser and more of a hands-on assistant that happens to run on the internet.

Corgea helps you ship fast without shipping vulnerabilities. It scans your code, explains what’s wrong, and auto-fixes issues without wrecking your flow. No drama. No rewrites.

EyesOff is a macOS app that alerts you when someone’s peeking at your screen. It runs locally, uses on-device vision models, and doesn’t upload anything.

Google Whisk 2.0 takes a single still image and turns it into an eight-second animated clip using Veo 2. It’s part of a Google Labs experiment and available to Google One AI Premium users across 60+ countries.

Universal Memory MCP makes your memory portable across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and more. Install it once and carry your links, chats, and notes wherever you go. No copy-paste. No re-explaining yourself.

THE BIG IDEA

Potential backlash in 3..2..1..

The Oscars just opened the door to AI, and no, not just in the sci-fi category.

According to new rules from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, films made using generative AI can officially win big. As in, Best Picture big. The updated language says using AI “neither helps nor harms” your shot at a nomination. Translation: if your script was co-written by ChatGPT, the Academy won’t care, as long as humans are still involved somewhere in the process.

This comes after a wave of AI-assisted winners at this year’s ceremony. Adrian Brody used AI to tweak his Hungarian accent in The Brutalist. Emilia Perez used it to sweeten up some vocals. Voice cloning, face fixes, accent edits, it's already here, and it's already winning.

Still, the Academy isn’t handing over the gold to Skynet just yet. Voters still need to watch all the nominated films (a rule that also just became mandatory), and they’ve said human creative input will still be weighed. Which is basically Hollywood code for “please don’t deepfake Meryl Streep into Fast & Furious 12.”

TRENDING DISCUSSIONS

When the bots start posting

What if your next favorite tweet wasn’t written by a person? Nika kicked off a thread asking if it makes sense to build a social network where everything is generated by AI. Posts, replies, interactions. All of it.

Some folks saw a creative playground. Others called it a ghost town with good branding. There’s also a side tangent about removing logins entirely, because maybe the real problem is people trying to log in at all.

If you’ve got thoughts on AI hanging out without us, this one’s for you.
