We Passed The Half-Year Mark! 🥂🎉
Be Nice To The Newcomers, They Needed A 2024 Recap!
For those that are new around here, this is weekly newsletter where I highlight new and innovative AI products that are worth exploring.
Hey hey!
Happy Friday! We’re back for a look back at our Products of the Week!
In this issue, you have:
Our Look Back At The Products of the Weeks
HALF A YEAR LATER: PRODUCTS OF THE WEEKS!
After reviewing dozens of AI-powered products every week, here’s a look back and what we’ve learned so far!
I’m also giving you the heads up that I’m taking a summer break to touch grass 🌿 and go to the lake! 😎🏖️ You’ll still be getting Weekly News Recap in the meantime, and the Products of the Week will be back for August 23rd!
It occurred to me this week that we’ve gone about half the year with practically no real breaks, and most of all no recaps for newcomers. Considering we’ve had a surge of new subscribers, I wanted to take a moment to celebrate the vast array of AI innovations we've explored together.

The Stats So Far…
In total, 400+ AI-Powered Products and Projects have crossed my desk
I’ve kicked the tires on about 200 of them myself! … not all of them were as good as their websites promised… 😬
You’ve seen the best 26.
The Common Nuggets for Founders
Across all these products, the common threads were products that had the ability to:
Simplify complex tasks
Materially enhance users’ experiences,
Play nicely with existing human + machine workflows (or held the promise to)
Were contextualized by non-AI means to drive tangible value.
Whether it was through automation, accuracy, or personalization, these AI tools consistently stood out by making our lives easier and more efficient. Let's recap who brought what to the table:
Legal & Contract AI
Robin AI brought AI to legal drafting, offering seamless contract analysis right in Microsoft Word. Lawyers and business managers were thrilled with its detailed reviews and integration capabilities.
Podcasting & Summarization
Wondercraft AI and Podwise revolutionized podcasting with AI-generated summaries and scripts, making it easier for creators to produce and manage their content.
Data & Content Generation
Browse AI simplified data scraping, making it accessible for data analysts without coding knowledge. Mostly AI impressed us with realistic synthetic data, ensuring privacy while maintaining quality.
Image Editing Marvels
Tools like Let’s Enhance, Remini, and Cutout Pro took image editing to the next level, offering high-quality enhancements, restorations, and background removals.
AI Writing Detection
We saw a slew of AI writing detection tools like Undetectable AI, ZeroGPT, and Sapling AI, each providing reliable and accurate ways to flag AI-generated content.
Interior Design & eCommerce
Spacely AI personalized interior design suggestions, while Packify AI and Claros SO enhanced eCommerce through optimized product photography and improved search engines.
Music & Game Generation
Creative AI was in full swing with StableAudio generating music tracks and RPGGO AI creating conversational games, showcasing AI’s ability to innovate in entertainment.
Ethical AI Design
Lastly, Tess.Design stood out by emphasizing the importance of ethics in AI design, a crucial aspect as we advance in AI technology.
As we move forward, in the next half of the year, I can't wait to see what new AI leaps and bounds this tech makes, and the great creations that come of it. The continued automation of complex (read: annoying) tasks promises to free up valuable time, giving us more space to focus on strategic and creative projects. I'm particularly excited to see advancements in personalization at scale for client experiences, and what other kinds of productivity gains we can find by making AI even more needs-focused.
With a bit of guidance, I think that the future of AI is bright, and I can't wait to discover the next wave of groundbreaking innovations together!
Thanks for joining me on this incredible journey so far, and welcome to the newbies in the community!
Stay curious,
Sam
