Topview Motion Studio

Product Hunt 1 month ago 42

Topview launched Motion Studio as its 4th release, aiming to let teams create product launch videos without using After Effects. It is presented as launching today. It changes production by using AI video models plus built-in motion design steps where teams only supply a brief, reference images, and choices for style, duration, and aspect ratio.

Switch

Product Hunt 1 month ago 18

Switch launched today to let AI agents join Slack, Teams, Discord, and Telegram channels as named participants with shared context and history. It is open-source and self-hostable and can be set up in minutes. As a result, teams can connect an agent once and reuse it across projects while each room keeps its own context and rules.

How David Tisch's BoxGroup turned a $750K bet on Cursor into a $1 billion exit by breaking all the VC rules

Fortune 29 ● 2 sources

Cursor was acquired by SpaceX for $60 billion, turning early investor BoxGroup’s initial $750,000 bet into a result that is expected to total about $1 billion. BoxGroup first invested in June 2022 with a $750,000 check to Cursor CEO Michael Truell, followed by additional checks. The deal reinforces BoxGroup’s people-first, highly collaborative VC approach and suggests that smaller bet sizes and less focus on ownership can still produce major exits in AI tooling.

Intelligent transcription with Gemini 3.5 Transcribe

Google 1 month ago 37 ● 6 sources

Google introduced Gemini 3.5 Transcribe, a speech-to-text model aimed at real-time, intelligent transcription and voice interactions in apps and developer tools. It reports a 4.0% average Word Error Rate (WER) for streaming and 2.6% for non-streaming use-cases, based on Artificial Analysis. Availability expands through Gemini API (Live API and Interactions API) and Google AI Studio, plus public preview support across products like Gboard/Rambler on Android, the Gemini macOS app, and upcoming Chrome voice dictation.

Bring your own model with Amazon SageMaker AI: Script mode in SDK v3

Amazon Web Services 1 month ago 39

Amazon SageMaker AI’s Python SDK v3 redesigned bring-your-own-model script mode by replacing framework-specific estimator and deployment classes with ModelTrainer for training and ModelBuilder for deployment. It syncs a local source_dir into the training container at runtime when the job starts (using SourceCode with command or entry_script), so the training and inference code can be changed without rebuilding Docker images. As a result, one API works across multiple frameworks, and developers can iterate faster while keeping full control over the container contents.

Preparing data for supervised fine-tuning Part 1: Formatting and quality

Amazon Web Services 1 month ago 34 ● 2 sources

The article lays out a process for preparing supervised fine-tuning datasets by auditing raw data quality and then formatting examples for training. It highlights that 1,000 carefully curated examples can match models trained on far more data, and notes that filtering to the cleanest 20 percent can improve training speed and scores. As a result, teams should verify correctness, diversity, deduplication, and safety, then structure each example as valid conversational JSONL (including system prompts and, when enabled, reasoning traces and tool-call blocks) before training.

When AI agent traces become application data

The New Stack 1 month ago 30

AI agent traces that capture observable execution details for review and later debugging increasingly need to be stored as durable application data rather than disposable telemetry. Langfuse reported Postgres IOPS exhaustion during ingestion and prompt API latency rising to 7 seconds under heavy load before moving trace data to ClickHouse. The shift changes storage and data-modeling choices toward analytics-friendly architectures and access-controlled retention aligned with product needs.

WIT

Product Hunt 1 month ago 6

WIT launched as an AI communication check for founders and global teams to test how messages read across American, Indian, and Singapore English. It launches today. The change is that teams can paste emails, Slack messages, or product copy to preview tone and get clearer alternatives before sending.
