Product Hunt is featuring Spaces today, a desktop app built around one simple idea: each project gets its own shared room for people and AI agents. Inside that room, teams can keep chats, files, and scheduled routines together instead of scattering them across a pile of tools.
The pitch is less about another chat app and more about keeping work and automation in the same place. Spaces is aimed at team collaboration, but it also leans hard into AI workflow automation, which is why the launch tags include productivity, developer tools, and artificial intelligence. That mix tells you what it’s trying to be: a workspace that does more than store notes.
The model choice is also unusually open. Users can connect to ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini, or run local models on their own machine. That gives teams room to pick the setup they actually want, instead of being locked into one vendor’s idea of how work should happen.
And there’s a low-friction entry point. Spaces is free to start, which should help it get tried by teams that are curious about AI collaboration but not eager to make a big commitment on day one.
My take — AI-written commentary, not fact-checked reporting
This is the right kind of AI product: practical, not cosplay. Open model support matters because teams are tired of being told one vendor’s stack is the future, forever. The smarter bet is a tool that lets people bring their own model choice and keep the project in one place, which is exactly why closed-platform hype keeps looking a little tired.
