display.dev vs Spectrum

Display.dev is a micro-SaaS that solves a surprisingly annoying problem in agentic workflows: sharing AI-generated reports and dashboards securely inside a company. Claude, Cursor, and other agents increasingly produce polished HTML artifacts—analysis dashboards, design mockups, research reports—but sharing them means either copy-pasting into a doc tool or using Claude's built-in publish feature, which creates public URLs accessible to anyone on the internet. Display.dev fixes this with a single command: `dsp publish ./report.html`. The artifact lands at a permanent URL gated by Google, Microsoft, or company email authentication. Viewers sign in with their existing credentials; no account creation required on their end. The platform also surfaces inline comments back to the agent, meaning your agent can read feedback and iterate—closing a loop that previously required manual copy-paste between viewers and the AI tool. Pricing is simple: free tier for 10 gated artifacts, Solo at $15/month for unlimited, Pro at $49/month with SSO and audit logs, Enterprise at $499/month for large orgs. It also integrates with Claude Desktop via MCP, making it the kind of tool that becomes invisible infrastructure for teams already deep in agentic workflows. With Product Hunt ranking it #5 today and 134 upvotes, it's clearly striking a chord.

Spectrum, from Photon, launched on Product Hunt today with 105 upvotes and a simple but sharp premise: your users don't want to learn a new AI interface—they want AI to show up in Slack, Teams, email, and every other tool they already use. Spectrum is an agent deployment layer that routes your AI agents to wherever your users are, with no per-integration custom dev work. The core product is an abstraction layer that handles the connector plumbing: authenticate once, and your agent can receive messages and send responses across all connected channels. Built-in conversation management means agents maintain context across channels—a user can start a request in Slack, continue it in Teams, and finish in email without losing thread. The platform also handles rate limiting, authentication, and error handling for each channel. For teams building internal AI tools or customer-facing AI assistants, this solves real integration pain. Building a Slack bot, Teams integration, email handler, and web widget separately takes weeks per channel. Spectrum reduces that to a single agent definition deployed everywhere. The question is pricing and lock-in: if Photon becomes the integration layer, they sit in a strategically critical position.
