I spend hours everyday researching AI products. Why am I only hearing about plandex now? Looks very promising, I’ll give it a try. Please up your marketing game, the product looks solid!

Maybe because they had a release hiatus for a bit. V1 was cool and had great ideas / interface, but needed some polish in practice (new models weren't well supported, it for in endless cycles, etc.) The explicit planning, server model, visible steps and a few other novel things were impressive though.

Hopefully the V2 will bring the polish and reliability.

  • Yeah, you're spot on. Rather than just continuously marketing and iterating on the v1, which was designed more for AI codegen's early experimental phase, I decided to go heads down on engineering and try to get to more of a step change on reliability and robustness.

    It's not a total rewrite and is still based on v1's foundations, but quite a lot of the core functionality has been reworked.

Are you getting paid to research AI products in some capacity or is this a personal interest and time investment?

Thanks! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.

Working on it!
