Hey Product Hunt! 👋 We built Alternaut around a simple idea: most people are using at least a few apps that are no longer the best option for them, but don't want the hassle of a switch. Great software, easier to discover. We built Alternaut for the GPT-6 Astra Challenge, from Tuesday onward, me and Dejan worked in the evenings to make sure to launch this on time. Phew, close one... In any case, we hope you enjoy the first version. From the tool it is right now, we aim to expand on the feature set, so stay tuned! P.S. We'd love to hear which app you’d most want to replace right now.
