Not posting this as a “go upvote us” thing - genuinely just want to share what happened over the last couple of weeks.
I started with a very simple idea.
I was building a small GitHub embedded card - basically a GitHub profile analyzer that I even embedded on my own profile, u can check it here: https://github.com/S4nfs
It was fun… but honestly, it started to feel weirdly stupid and simple and kind of lonely product.
So I thought - why not take it a bit further?
That’s when things shifted.
I started trying to automate some boring browser tasks we deal with every day, like:
sorting emails
connecting/following like-minded people on social media
posting on LinkedIn
And then it expanded into things like:
checking updates across multiple sites (like Hacker News)
filling repetitive forms
managing small workflows that don’t have APIs
Nothing new, right?
But everything we tried kept breaking.
Selectors failed. APIs didn’t exist. MCPs just ended up wasting tokens. Workflows were fragile.
And honestly, it felt like we were spending more time fixing automation than actually benefiting from it.
At some point, I asked a very simple question:
So I built a rough prototype.
(And yeah… I had already tried things like Manus and vibe-coded tools like OpenClaw - they looked cool, gave those fake “goosebumps” at first… but… eh.)
The idea was simple:
An agent that:
opens a real browser
watches the screen
understands what’s happening
clicks, types, navigates
and completes tasks end-to-end
Partial DOM dependency. No predefined flows.
Just: observe → decide → act
I didn’t plan much. I just kept going.
Broke things. Rebuilt. Iterated again.
Fast forward ~2 weeks…
It turned into something i now call Magine (derived from i-magine), previously i used to call it Cathub
It’s basically an AI Orchestrator Companion where you can:
spin up fully isolated browser agents
assign them tasks
schedule them (even with heartbeat-style monitoring)
and let them run while you’re offline
The weird part?
It actually started working for real-life things:
finishing tasks you’ve been putting off
checking multiple sites before making decisions
running small workflows that normally need manual effort
basically… doing the “annoying internet stuff” for you
We’re launching it on Product Hunt today (https://www.producthunt.com/products/magine) - feel free to check it out if you’re curious.
Not sure how big this gets, but it genuinely feels like a different direction from typical AI tools -
less about answering questions, more about doing things.
Would love honest thoughts from this community:
Is this the direction automation is heading?
Or is UI-level (vision-based) interaction just a temporary workaround?
What would you actually trust an AI to handle for you?
If you’re curious, you can check it out here: https://magine.cloud Docs, if needed: https://magine.cloud/docs
(or just ignore the link and share your thoughts - that’s honestly more valuable, especially since this is my 3rd Product Hunt launch)
Appreciate you reading this far
“P.S. Magine invited all its hunters by itself - via email, LinkedIn, and X (Twitter).”
