Similarity graph

Local clusters rerank extracted product concepts and description terms. The generated graph remains the fallback for sparse descriptions: offline reciprocal product-similarity graph: extracted concepts + description terms + bounded category/affiliation boosts. Minimum fallback score: 0; max competitors: 6.

RunRL

match 62

RunRL improves LLMs and AI agents with reinforcement learning. Do you have a model that needs to get better at a certain task? Are you tired of messing around with prompts? Do you spend a lot of money on observability, and wish that all this data could let your model self-improve? Well, head on over to RunRL.com, and see what we have to offer! If you give us a model, a prompt, and a reward, we’ll make your model’s reward go up.

HyperProbe

match 62

If your team uses Cursor, Claude Code, or Codex to ship, you've felt it: the AI is great at writing code, mediocre at debugging it. When something breaks in prod, you're back to grepping logs, adding console.logs, redeploying, and hoping the AI's guess is right. HyperProbe fixes this. Your coding agent dynamically drops non-breaking probes into your running services, straight from your IDE. When a probe fires, HyperProbe captures and sanitises the exact variable state, feeding your agent real ev
