Launch HN: Muddy (YC S19) – Multiplayer browser for getting work done

May 09, 2024 - news.ycombinator.com
Muddy is a new browser designed to streamline work by automatically organizing project files in the same location where they are used and shared. The browser was created by Jimmy, Ron, and Austa, who were frustrated with the inefficiency and redundancy of current work systems. Muddy allows users to work on projects in spaces, similar to automatic tab groups, and share apps into the project's shared timeline. The browser then automatically opens relevant tabs, using a LLM to continuously organize apps and keep everything up to date.

Muddy is based on Chromium and offers features such as the ability to rewind the project timeline, annotate directly on websites, and break up large projects. It also uses AI to answer questions and return apps directly. The team plans to offer paid subscriptions for teams with additional features like shared passwords, team organization, custom shortcuts, and SSO management. However, the base product will be free and no revenue will come from data monetization. Muddy is available for download on Mac and Windows.
