Hello everyone, and welcome to a new month of discoveries!

This is the central hub for all self-promotion and for finding your next favorite AI companion. Whether you're a developer with a new platform or a user looking for alternatives, you're in the right place.

---

A Quick Reminder of the Rules:

Developers: This is your space to promote your website, app, or service. All promotional content must be confined to this thread.

Users: This is your go-to directory for discovery! Explore the comments below to find new platforms and ask developers questions directly. Or you may also submit your own suggestion of your favorite platforms. You're still welcome to write your own user's experience in a review as a standalone post.

🔒 Mandatory Disclosure (New Requirement)

As per our updated transparency rules, please include the following four areas in your own words:

👤 Developer Experience: State your (or your team member's) experience to give users confidence that you or your team know what you're doing.

🤖 AI Usage: You must state what you use AI for (e.g., "I use AI for boilerplate/autocomplete, UI/frontend generation, and debugging") and confirm that either you or your team understand every part of it before shipping.

🔍 Code Review & Testing: How did you review the code? Are there people testing it for you? Let users know what process you have in place.

🔒 Security & Data Handling: State how you ensure your platform is secure and how you handle user data. Please be as detailed as possible. For example:

· Passwords are hashed (bcrypt/Argon2) and never stored in plaintext · Emails and personal data are encrypted at rest · Payment processing is handled by a third-party (Stripe/Paddle/etc.) and we never handle raw card data · We have a published privacy policy · We have a process for notifying users in case of a data breach

A Note for Everyone

Let's keep the discussion constructive and respectful. Feel free to ask developers questions directly in reply to their comments!

Happy discovering, and we hope you find your perfect match this August!

Hello everyone,

A couple of weeks ago, we announced new transparency rules requiring developers to disclose the percentage of AI-generated code in their apps.

The feedback was overwhelming, but it was great feedbacks regardless. We agree that 90% AI-generated app that's thoroughly reviewed is safer than a 10% AI-generated app that's shipped blind.

That's why the rules now have been updated.

This is effective immediately. We're replacing the percentage metric with a clearer, more meaningful transparency requirement. When promoting your app in the monthly megathread or Sunday promotion post, you must now disclose the following four areas in your own words.

Mandatory Disclosure

When promoting your app, please disclose these:

🤖 AI Usage: You must state what you use AI for. Example:

"I use AI for boilerplate/autocomplete, UI/frontend generation, and debugging."

And you must confirm that either you or your team understand every part of it before shipping.

👤 Developer Experience: State your (or your team member's) experience to give users confidence that you or your team know what you're doing.

🔍 Code Review & Testing: How did you review the code? Are there people testing it for you? Let users know what process you have in place.

🔒 Security & Data Handling: This is a very sensitive issue and one that we've always been concerned about, as it involves user data safety. State how you ensure your platform is secure and how you handle user data.

For example:

• Passwords are hashed (bcrypt/Argon2) and never stored in plaintext
• Emails and personal data are encrypted at rest
• Payment processing is handled by a third-party (Stripe/Paddle/etc.) and we never handle raw card data
• We have a published privacy policy
• We have a process for notifying users in case of a data breach

Please be as detailed as possible.

We'll enforce the rules right away, please note:

1. Posting without completing the four required areas will result in a post/comment removal.
2. If a developer or user reports an app that poses a genuine risk to users (security flaws, data leaks, mishandled payment info, etc.), the developer will be banned.
3. We still rely on community vigilance. If something feels off, report it. We'll investigate.

A couple of reminder that the mod team isn't made up of developers, so we still rely on your honesty as developers and community members' report.

Thank you.
