AgentPulse by Rectify is a visual GUI that wraps AI coding agent workflows — particularly OpenClaw-style terminal agents — in a point-and-click interface. Launched on Product Hunt on April 7, it lets developers spawn agent tasks, monitor progress, review diffs, and approve or reject changes without typing a single command. The interface shows a live feed of what each agent is doing — file reads, edits, bash commands — with the ability to pause, redirect, or kill tasks mid-execution. Completed tasks show a structured diff view with one-click accept or reject. Multiple agents can run in parallel with a dashboard overview of their status. AgentPulse is targeting developers who want AI coding assistance but find terminal-based agents intimidating or impractical in team settings where non-engineering stakeholders need visibility. The product also appeals to engineering managers who want to audit what AI agents are doing in their codebase without reading scrollback from a terminal session.

Social Fetch is a unified API platform that lets developers scrape profiles, posts, comments, videos, and transcripts from TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, X (Twitter), LinkedIn, and Facebook in real time. Built by indie developer Luke (lukem121), it unifies six social platforms behind a single TypeScript SDK with OpenAPI spec support and a pay-as-you-go credit model — no monthly commitment, no rate limits, 100 free credits to start. The core problem Social Fetch solves is fragmentation. Each major social platform has incompatible APIs (or no public API at all), constantly changing endpoints, and aggressive bot detection. Building and maintaining scrapers for all six platforms is a multi-month engineering effort that quickly becomes a maintenance burden. Social Fetch abstracts all of that away behind a clean, consistent interface that works today. For AI builders specifically, social data is increasingly the raw material for training data pipelines, competitive intelligence agents, content analytics, and trend detection. Social Fetch landed #3 on Product Hunt with 234 upvotes on launch day, suggesting significant demand. The pay-as-you-go pricing is appealing for projects with variable data needs, and the free credit tier lets teams evaluate it without any upfront commitment.
Reviewer scorecard
“The parallel agents dashboard is genuinely useful — I often run 3-4 agent tasks simultaneously and tracking them in separate terminals is messy. A unified view with structured diff approval is exactly the interface layer that's been missing from terminal-based agent tools.”
“Maintaining scrapers for six platforms is genuinely painful. If Social Fetch keeps up with API changes and anti-bot measures, the time savings alone justify the cost. The TypeScript SDK and OpenAPI spec mean zero friction to integrate.”
“Every developer who uses terminal agents eventually builds their own mental model of the scrollback. Adding a GUI abstraction layer means one more thing to learn, one more dependency to break, and a UI that will lag behind the underlying agent capabilities. Power users will stick with the terminal.”
“Scraping LinkedIn and Instagram at scale almost certainly violates their ToS, and both platforms have sued scrapers before. Using this in a production application carries real legal risk that isn't disclosed on the landing page.”
“The key insight here is that AI coding agents are entering organizations through engineering teams but decisions are being made by managers and PMs who don't live in terminals. A visual layer that makes agent work legible to non-engineers could unlock a lot of organizational adoption.”
“Real-time social data is the nervous system of AI-powered market intelligence. A unified cross-platform API turns social media into a structured data source that agents can actually reason over.”
“As someone who codes occasionally but doesn't live in a terminal, this is the interface that makes AI coding agents actually accessible. The structured diff view with one-click approve/reject is the exact UX pattern I'd want — no need to understand what happened, just whether the result looks right.”
“For content creators tracking trends and competitors across platforms, this is a tool that would save hours of manual monitoring weekly. The pay-as-you-go model means you only pay when you're actually using it.”
