| WELCOME | Happy Tuesday, legends. Welcome back to another edition of The Frontier β our weekly newsletter covering the best new AI launches on Product Hunt. This week, cursor for pitch decks, AI for finder, and a breakdown of OpenAIβs new structure. | | TOP LAUNCHES | Cursor for your pitch deck | | TOP LAUNCHES | DeckSpeed listens to your meeting, brainstorm, or off-the-cuff voice note and spins it into a finished slide deck. It writes the storyline, chooses layouts, drops in charts, images, and even 3-D models, then hands you a PowerPoint file. | Granola for iOS is an AI note-taking app for people stuck in nonstop meetings. It records the call, transcribes it, and turns the mess into a clean, structured summary you can actually use, all from your phone. | Substage slips a natural-language command bar under every Mac Finder window. Type βzip these,β βconvert to 1080p mp4,β or βword count,β hit return, and it does the thingβno menu spelunking, no Terminal ritual. | Antispace connects Gmail, Calendar, Notes, GitHub, and more into one command bar. You type what you want and your AI sidekick does it. No tabs. No toggling. The new update lets you control how your AI looks, thinks, and behaves. | FineTuner lets you upload content from PDFs, websites, or videos and fine-tune a GPT or Claude model without writing code. It builds the dataset, runs training, and gives you an API. |

| | THE BIG IDEA | OpenAI split in two | | OpenAI just split its soul in twoβand gave each half a new job title. | The company is restructuring into a capped-profit parent and a fully nonprofit research lab. The new setup separates frontier model research (run by OpenAI Nonprofit) from the productized ChatGPT empire (run by the for-profit OpenAI Global), with CEO Sam Altman leading both. Chief Scientist Ilya Sutskever and alignment researcher Jan Leike have exited stage left, but not before Sutskeverβs now-famous βsuperalignmentβ team was quietly dissolved. | Under the hood, this looks like a response to mounting pressure. Between safety critics, government scrutiny, and uneasy investors, OpenAIβs trying to reassure all sides: moonshot research can still happen, and ChatGPT can still ship updates on time. | Itβs also a sign that alignment and commercial viability are drifting apart. One group will chase AGI safeguards. The other will chase monthly active users. Ideally, theyβll still talk. | Just maybe not over Slack. |
|
| | TRENDING DISCUSSIONS | Break down those barriers | | Wawi kicked off a discussion thatβs still waiting for its first replies: what actually stops people from adopting AI products? | They point to human bias, low awareness, and unclear value props as some of the hurdlesβand invite others to share whatβs worked (or flopped) in their own experience launching AI tools. | The threadβs quiet for now, but it asks the right question. If youβve ever tried convincing someone to trust your AI product, this could be your cue to chime in. | |
