Tomo is acquiring Fae.
There are hundreds of personal AI companies.
But one of them got added to more group chats with Tomo than any other: Fae
Instead of battling it out, Fae’s community is coming home to @tomo.
Together, we're building AI for everyday people.

The oscars is like the cosign awards for movies
Excited to announce the Cosign Awards: celebrating exceptional people, companies, and products that had a massive impact in 2026.
cosign.co/awards
Anyone can nominate and vote. Award winners will be chosen by the public in conjunction with a panel of judges, including industry leaders like @lennysan, @packyM, @amasad, and many more. We’ll host an event in December honoring the winners (10 per category).
For people categories, we’re mostly focused on everyone except the CEO–everyone else building the company behind the scenes.
Companies with the most amount of people nominations will be listed on our “Top Companies to Work For” page.
True to form, at Product Hunt I helped launch the Golden Kitty awards a decade ago to recognize great products. Soon after I launched the Rise Awards, honoring executives and ICs building companies that make them. The Cosign Awards is the next iteration.

People categories:
- Future Founders
- Rising Stars
- Engineering
- FDE
- Product

My new video on ai and design is now live on @Microsoft’s official website!
I believe designing intelligence means shaping humanity.
In the video, I talk about:
- Building @copilot into a thinking partner
- Designing beyond interfaces: models, memory, evaluation...
And a question I keep coming back to: as ai reshapes our world, how can we live fully, creatively, and meaningfully?

I came across a competitor running TikTok ads, and EVERY comment on the ad is someone recommending Tomo instead.
Nothing more validating.

Amazing work from the GOAT Lucas, one of the most creative and inspiring designers I know.
Super honored to have helped out on this mini site!
while @hardlaunching ghost, we hosted weekly factory tours to give ppl a sneak peek at core
so we made a website to register for a tour and watch @zainmfj do his chores on “live” cctv 🙃 factory.ghost.ai

Zain is the most compelling founder i’ve ever met. our first convo was a kickoff call. eventually, i was living in his office
4 months ago, i took that call from nyc. @zainmfj had forgone college to build computers for personal AI that runs locally and belongs to you. and when he spoke about that future, the distance felt crossable. i wanted to help get us there
so after a knicks-in-5, bushwick-rave filled summer, i returned to sf. and before long, my commute was the distance from the office couch to my desk
that couch sat against an enormous window. and every night, i’d catch the last few hours of darkness before sunrise burned through the glass and onto my face
in my time @hardlaunching, i’ve learned how loosely ‘designer’ can apply if ur committed to moving mountains for your companies by any means necessary
sometimes that meant commanding a fleet of taskrabbits like they're coding agents, to help @nicholaschua get ghost’s Hardware Factory ready for its weekly tours
or it meant long jam sessions with @YifeiChen1121 on what ghost.ai should look like, then reopening figma before bed to fix a text layout lol
and on the nights when i’d lose the fight to stay awake, the glow from Zain’s desk was the last thing I’d see. he’d still be debugging
our 3 am convos on the office roof continue to wow me with how precisely Zain thinks, esp at such an enormous scale. i’d leave those convos mad tired, but wanting to build more, and to be even a little more like him
congrats on @hardlaunching, ghost and co! it’s meant a lot to help introduce you to the world
Introducing Core, The Personal Al Computer
The most powerful technology humanity has built should belong to you
