MADE TO GROW · New indie services from Korea and beyond
Discover new Korean services, AI tools and open-source developer tools you can try today.
EDITOR'S FIELD NOTES
This week, we look at services with different uses, from comparing products while shopping and editing photos to simulating robots and exploring developer tools.
01While shopping, you can find and compare similar products from other stores. The results appear in a sidebar on the original page, giving you a clear way to compare them.
Explore service →
02You can adjust the background blur of a photo in your browser and compare it before and after editing. You can then download the result as a still image.
Explore service →
03You can test robotic arm movements on the web and recalculate trajectories based on collision avoidance settings. It also shows how to import and run a demo project.

SIGNAL FINDER
Browse by category.
Filter by the tags that interest you.
SITE CAPTUREWhen people using different AI assistants coordinate plans, the assistants can share messages and plans in the same room while keeping their own private notes.
SITE CAPTUREA service for people observing AI crawler access to inspect the behavior patterns of requests to a domain and the day's public logs.
OPEN TO STARTS
Your service can still be a work in progress. If someone else can open it, you can share it here.
Share the need, curiosity or learning that led you to build it.
Sharing starts a conversation. Feedback and inspiration can help shape your next version.
Open to first-time makers, people building with AI, individuals and teams. We check the link and basic information.
WHY RAIDERS
Someone's first version can inspire another person to start. Share, learn and build your next version.

SITE CAPTUREFor users checking how old a model's knowledge is, it shows release dates and published training cutoff dates for models from multiple labs side by side and counts elapsed time in real time.
SITE CAPTURE
AirmailAIA chat app for desktop users who want to use their own API keys with multiple AI providers without sending conversations or credentials through an intermediary server.
SITE CAPTURE
pizza-botLets people running AI agents in the background start or schedule tasks, then review completed results and items requiring their decisions in an inbox.

SITE CAPTURE
Ardent AIHelps companies adopt custom agents without building development infrastructure themselves, process large datasets from spreadsheets, databases, and APIs in an isolated environment, and reuse the results across the organization.
