Build chat-based applications for a seamless user experience
A framework/platform designed to build entire applications connected to a single frontend chat interface. No more navigating through multiple user interfaces—everything you need is accessible through a chat.
Hey PH! We're Aaron and JY, the creators of Whale!
We built Whale after working with and seeing other business applications being used in a very inefficient way with the current UI/UX. We think that new applications being built will be natively AI powered somehow. We have also seen firsthand how difficult it is to create AI agentic workflows in the startup we're working at.
Whale allows users to create and select applications they wish to interact with directly via chat, instead of forcing llms to navigate interfaces made for humans and failing miserably. We think this new way of interaction simplifies and enhances user experience.
Our biggest challenge right now is between usability and complexity. We want the interface to be user friendly for non-technical people, while still being powerful enough for people for advanced users and devs. We still have a long way to go, but wanted to share our MVP to guide what we should build towards. We're also looking for use cases where Whale can excel. If you have any ideas or needs, please reach out—we'd love to build something for you!
We're always shipping and would love to hear your ideas, criticisms, and feedback! Thank you, PH community!

Who hunted Whale?
Whale was hunted by Aaron Tan. 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.
