Tell Codi what you want to build. It writes the plan, runs AI agents in parallel across all your projects, and picks the cheapest model that can do each task, so you ship more and spend less. When you add a project it writes the charter and task list itself, and only pulls you in when a decision needs you, through one inbox.
Hi, I'm Shreyans, one of the makers.
I built AskCodi because I got tired of babysitting AI. Every tool I tried turned building software into a second job. Pick the model, paste the context, wire up the agents, then sit there watching a run and hoping it didn't go sideways. I was spending more time operating the tool than shipping with it.
So we made the opposite of that. You hire Codi, an AI CTO that lives on your Mac, and you talk to it the way you'd talk to a real one. You don't manage a fleet of agents. You manage one person, and that person runs the team.
You've probably seen tools that give you a control center for your agents: terminals, panes, worktrees, all of it yours to drive. This is the opposite. I didn't want a bigger cockpit. I wanted to hand the work to someone and step away.
A few things I'm proud of, and would love you to poke holes in.
Before Codi writes a single line, it sits down and learns the project. It asks what you're building, who it's for, and what it should never touch without checking, then drafts a plan from your answers. So it builds the thing you meant, not the literal words you typed.
You never choose a model again. Codi decides task by task. Cheap models for the boring parts, the expensive ones only where they earn it. In our own use, a week of work came out around a dollar, instead of the fifteen-ish it costs to run a frontier model on everything.
And it doesn't need you sitting over it. Codi already knows what's next from talking to you, so it keeps working in your off-hours when tokens are cheaper. You close the laptop, it keeps going, and the calls that are actually yours are waiting in an inbox the next morning. That's really the whole product: a chat and an inbox.
It also isn't one thing at a time. Codi runs sessions in parallel across every project you have, so you can kick off work on three repos before your coffee is ready and let them all move together. It's the closest I've felt to running a studio on my own.
Honest caveat, since I'd rather you hear it from me: it's early. The memory gets sharper the more you use it, and there are rough edges we're still filing down. If you try it, I most want to hear where it annoyed you.
One aside: AskCodi also has an OpenAI-compatible API, if you'd rather build on the orchestration than talk to it. The app is what I'm here to show you today, but the same brains are a call away.
It's on Mac(Windows coming soon), free to start on your own Claude subscription. Ask me anything, I'll be here all day.

Who hunted AskCodi?
AskCodi was hunted by Shreyans Bhansali. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
