Jules by Google Labs is an asynchronous AI coding agent that works on your GitHub repos. Understands project context, fixes bugs, builds features & offers audio changelogs. Public beta now open.
Google Labs just launched Jules into public beta, and it's an interesting take on an AI coding assistant – designed to be more of an autonomous agent rather than just a code completion tool.
You can assign tasks to Jules (like fixing bugs, adding features, or even updating dependencies) and it works asynchronously in the background on your actual GitHub codebase. It clones your repo into a secure cloud VM, figures out the context, makes a plan which you can review and steer, and then gets to work. One neat feature is audio changelogs for your commits!
It doesn't train on your private code, and access is free during this public beta, with some usage limits. Jules shows that AI can take on more complete coding tasks independently, letting developers focus on other things.
Jules is like having an AI pair programmer who truly gets your GitHub projects. From bug fixes to feature building—and even audio changelogs—it’s an impressive step toward smoother, more efficient dev workflows.

Who hunted Jules?
Jules was hunted by Zac Zuo. 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.
