you've spent years buying from these companies
it's time to start owning a piece of them
access now

Agents with iPhones: market map
agents can build entire iOS apps
but can they actually use what they build?
lately i've seen more discussions around mobile testing and giving coding agents access to simulators/real iPhones
these tools let agents:
• navigate and debug apps on your Mac
• test camera, location, network and permissions
• build and run iOS apps in the cloud
• control real iPhones and installed apps
• automatically test user journeys and catch regressions
a shortlist
what they're best for
and where each one actually adds value
@tryrevyl, @rocketsim_app, @tapkit, @swmansion
@limrun, @minitap_ai, @frieren033 (tapflow)

911 for imessage agents
recently i've been testing a bunch of AI agents living in iMessage as part of a broader look at the different ways we interact with agents
@interaction @Tomo @boassistant etc.
feels like this category is mostly benefiting from a temporary interface gap
especially with Apple Intelligence moving deeper into the OS
the thesis behind iMessage agents does make sense:
> no new app
> familiar experience
but iMessage feels too limited as an agent interface imo, and a single chat thread gets cramped fast
few interesting exceptions:
@fliptexts focused entirely on financial management, with Plaid + brokerage integrations
one of the best onboarding flows i've tried: somehow they even customize the chat wallpaper
couldn't test it too much given the focus on US banks*
different direction:
@showrunnernyc imo the only one that really understood the interface problem
don't squeeze the agent into iMessage and rebuild mobile messaging around agents
their demo is pretty cool, worth checking out nitter.cf/sahilhandapanda/status…
that feels much closer to where this should go
if Apple Intelligence gets good enough, being another contact in iMessage probably won't be much of a moat
extra @BodyBuddyCoach logo is a banger
grok bot dubai meetup
solo founders and tiny teams shipping absurd amounts now
bot to human ratio: 10:1
good
gg @Crilofer for the great crowd
beaver started from a very sophisticated financial thesis
my wife likes buying stuff more than buying stocks
so now buying stuff gets her stocks
the actual idea is pretty simple
we have enough guilt driven apps telling people to spend less/set goals and track every transaction
meanwhile tokenized stocks are mostly sitting inside wallets and dexs that only crypto bros touch
so 1+1
use tokenized stocks to make investing part of everyday spending
- invest as little as $0.10
- near-zero fees
- turn spare change from bank tx into stocks 24/7
the next million investors won't come from another terminal
they'll come from cute little lifestyle apps
that fit into everyday life
railway enough
