Launch Week Power-Ups (5 days to Product Hunt)

Rover has its own dedicated announcement (and it deserves it).
This post is about the other drops we’re shipping alongside launch — the pieces that make “agents everywhere” actually practical for prosumers.

In short: cheaper runs, instant triggers, mobile control, and real memory.


💸 90% cheaper agent runs (so you can use this everywhere)

We made large improvements to execution cost and efficiency so you can run workflows like you mean it — not like you’re rationing tokens.

3 quick ways to min-max:

  • Use direct modes (act / extract / crawl) when you already know what you want (skip planner overhead)
  • Swap in Flash Lite for simple tasks (cheap + fast)
  • Add multiple Gemini keys and we’ll rotate automatically (you may never burn a credit on light work)

The goal: agents feel like utilities, not like “expensive demos.”


🐶 Browser Watchdog: triggers from tab notifications (no webhooks)

Webhooks are great… until the app doesn’t have them, or you don’t want to wire them.

Browser Watchdog sits in your browser and listens for tab notifications.
When something pings — it “barks” and runs a workflow immediately.

Think:

  • A support tool notifies you → auto-triage + draft response
  • A dashboard alerts you → pull context + summarize + take action
  • A site shows “new results” → extract + append to Sheet

Docs: /docs/triggers


💬 WhatsApp → trigger your browser (yes, really)

Sometimes you want to kick off a workflow from your phone while you’re walking, traveling, or in a meeting.

With our WhatsApp integration, you can message a bot like:

  • “Track competitor pricing changes today”
  • “Pull the key points from this article and send me a summary”
  • “Find 20 leads in this niche and format them for outreach”

Link: /whatsapp

This turns your browser into something you can remote-control conversationally — without opening a laptop.


📚 Knowledge Bases: tabs → searchable memory in seconds

If you’ve ever had 30–50 tabs open while researching… you know.

Knowledge Bases convert open tabs into a searchable memory you can query, refresh, and share. You can even embed it as a chat widget.

Use cases:

  • Research sprints → “what did I learn across these sources?”
  • Internal docs / product specs → instant Q&A without re-reading everything
  • Shareable “mini-wikis” for a project, customer, or launch

Docs: /docs/knowledge-base


⏳ Reminder: Product Hunt launch in 5 days

If you’ve been following along, we’d love your support on launch day.

Comments, reviews, and shares genuinely help — especially for a launch that’s about shipping real infrastructure, not just a demo.
