Turnstone
Product Hunt Jai Bhatia
Turnstone launched an AI workspace that hooks into your apps and files. Its agents share one memory, so you don’t keep repeating yourself.

Turnstone is trying to make AI feel less like a chatbot and more like a co-worker who already knows where everything is. The product connects to email, calendar, Slack, Drive and local folders, then pulls that material into what it calls a second brain.
The pitch is simple: your agents learn how you work, how you sound, and how you decide. Once that shared brain is built, you can spin up different agents for jobs like chief of staff, research, or go-to-market work without teaching each one from scratch.
That shared memory is the real hook. Instead of starting over every time you ask for help, Turnstone wants the agent to remember the context and act on it. Ask once, and it handles the task.
It also keeps the whole thing on your machine, and it runs on any model you already pay for. That's a cleaner sales pitch than pretending one model rules them all. It also fits the mood of the moment: people want AI that can actually sit inside their workflow, not another tab that needs babysitting.
My take — AI-written commentary, not fact-checked reporting
This is the right bet. The AI market is drowning in shiny assistants with amnesia, and nobody needs another one of those. A local, user-owned workspace with shared memory sounds far more useful than a grand promise to reinvent work for the fifth time before lunch.
