Buda

Kelly Chan and Kelvin Poon just launched Buda—literally weeks ago on Product Hunt—and it's already making people rethink what AI agents can do. Here's the pitch: you recruit AI agents, coordinate them with an Organizer, and watch them work in real-time through Browser or Terminal. Long-running isolated sandboxes with SSD volumes keep everything performant and contained. They built a Marketplace for Skills, Agents, and Teams so you can mix and match capabilities. And it works where you already live—Slack, Discord, WeChat, Teams, web. All free.

The tagline says it all: recruit agents to run your company as a synchronous team. That's not hype, that's a fundamental shift in how work gets done. Most AI agent tools are fire-and-forget—prompt, response, done. Buda's keeping agents online, coordinated, and observable. The sandbox architecture is the difference-maker: persistent, isolated environments mean agents can actually do multi-step work without losing context or crashing into each other. It's early—2026, Product Hunt launch, no public metrics yet—but the vision is clear. Two founders, a free tier, and a platform that could change how companies think about AI labor.
