The weekly chart for AI-powered projects — judged by Flambo. Discover standout apps built with Cursor, Bolt, v0, Replit, Lovable, Claude Code and more... Flambo scores every submission based on innovation and utility New rankings every Monday.
Hey Product Hunt. I’m Tim, the builder behind Hot100.ai.
I’ve been back building again these past months, and this project has been a genuine labor of love and learning. Like many of you, I’ve been immersed in the wave of AI-building through tools like Cursor, v0, Bolt, Replit, Lovable and Claude Code. There is a new working style forming. A new vibe around making things.
Hot100 came from wanting to surface and celebrate that. To see what is actually being made right now, and to learn from it.
When I launched Plane here 9 years ago, Product Hunt was one of the few meaningful places to share a product. Today there are countless directories. Many follow the same model: vote counts, SEO loops, domain rating games. It has become harder to know where to find what is genuinely good. Popularity does not equal quality. Nothing felt like the definitive chart for AI-built projects.
So I built Hot100 to explore what a merit-based ranking could look like.
Hot100 uses AI to score AI projects. I built an AI Judge, named Flambo, that evaluates submissions based on innovation, usefulness, and execution. Human votes still matter, but Flambo’s score is the anchor. The idea is simple: good work should be able to surface, even without an audience.
Over 400 projects have already come through the beta this summer, and it has been interesting to see which tools and workflows are emerging as the new default stack. We are starting to publish some of that telemetry: which IDEs are rising, which models are becoming common, and which frameworks are quietly winning. If you enjoy that kind of signal, there is a weekly email.
I spent close to 9 years at Zendesk working on design at scale. This project has been different. Just me in Replit, hands on with every design detail.
If you are building, I'd love to see what you are working on. Submit a project, see where it lands, maybe hit the chart next Monday. And if you are just curious, explore the current Hot100. There is a lot of great work happening.
I will be here all day for questions and conversation.
Thanks for being here.

Cool! We’re building an AI service for tourism. Would it be possible to add it to your ranking, or do you only feature development tools?
Another listing website. But why not? We need more visibility 💯. Great launch!!
Looks great - super interesting to see how this (& AI tooling space) will evolve - it's moving fast!
Also as the judging is AI powered, should hot100 be on the hot100 list too - or is that too meta? Curious - How does it rank against its own criteria - you must have tested it!
Good stuff. Best of luck with the launch!
Thanks for sharing your learnings about the platform and your methods at AI Meetup Copenhagen last month ⚡
I don't have time to test hundreds of tools myself so the the idea of publishing usage data and metrics about which IDEs, models, methods and frameworks are gaining traction is what's most interesting to me.
Those kinds of real-world signals are valuable for anyone trying to understand where the market is going - and probably also VCs and other types of investors.
Love seeing a fresh take on ranking and discovery, we have so many directories that it’s easy to lose sight of what actually adds value.
I like the idea of scoring projects based on utility, seems like a no brainer but at the same time hard to pull it off?
Also, would it be fair to assume certain models or tools might get more upvotes because their have a bigger brand presence in the AI space? Would love to know more on what behind the scoring system for sure.
Congrats on the launch!
Can you give some more detail on how Flambo scores each project? "Innovation" and "Utility" can be interpreted quite broadly so I am curious to know what goes on behind the curtain!
Congrats on the launch @darlingdash ! Love the focus on scoring projects based on quality rather than largest network of upvoters 💪
Great idea. How do you control if a project was built with one of the AI builders?
