The Empire State Building rose in 410 days, 4.5 stories/week. The world called it impossible. Then watched it rise.
For 6 months I watched this team to build with the same speed. They built the scaffold so anyone can build higher now. Pun intended.:)
๐ We are launching Asteroid 2.0 on Product Hunt today ๐
It's the most advanced browser & computer-use platform out there. Our meta-agent Astro builds agents, writes scripts on the fly, and gets faster and cheaper with every run.
If you want to experience an AGI moment, try it.

"We're reinventing the wheel on browser agents."
- 10 healthtech CEOs, May 2026
Their eng. teams spend months reverse-engineering payer portals and EHR flows... for something they never wanted to build.
So we wrote a builder's atlas for teams shipping healthcare automation in production.
Deep dive, healthcare interoperability with AI.

..big news tomorrow ๐
@asteroid_inc will be launching on @ProductHunt !!
For the past few months, weโve been pushing computer-use agents into production: a new harness, desktop support, script writing, persistent memory, and hundreds of healthcare deployments.
The team was shipping. Now itโs your turn to try our coding agents trained for browsers!
I'm glad @ycombinator is advising founders to be truthful about their revenue numbers.
I remember our first office hours with @harjtaggar who I believe gave us a demo day goal of $10k MRR, a few paying customers who love us and more importantly figuring out who exactly our customers are. (Getting revenue is easier than that:)
I felt $10k MRR is nothing, I saw Twitter filled with exponentials of $$$ in 5 days. I felt YC was lowering our ambitions. Only later when we reached $10k MRR, I realized how hard the actual 0 -> $10k MRR in 3 months is and that it's a great achievement.

Today, weโre launching Asteroid 2.0
Each agent now runs on its own machine with a filesystem, browser, and terminal.
It writes and executes code at runtime, remembers what it learned between runs, and caches Playwright scripts so repeat runs get faster and more deterministic.
Browser agents were overhyped in 2025.
But I think we've finally nailed it -- with a few tricks:
- Coding agents all the way
- Files as long-term memory
- Domain expert supervision for edge cases
You need all of it (and more) or you get disappointed again.
1/6..
Asteroid is hiring!!
We're building for a world where agents outnumber humans at work.
3 roles at Asteroid (YC W25) -- Product, GTM, and
Engineering.
Our computer-use agents already run 1000s of workflows daily across healthcare, insurance, and finance. We can't keep up with demand. ๐งต
We just shipped desktop automation at Asteroid. ๐ฅ๏ธ
Our AI agents can now control full Windows and Linux desktops, not just browsers.
Here's why this changes everything for healthcare ๐งต
Las Vegas for #HIMSS26 this week.
Spending VC money on conferences, not casinos.
If you run ops at a digital health company and your team's day is clicking through payer portals.
That's a browser workforce problem.
Think: prior auth, eligibility, claim status, EHR updates and more
That's what Asteroid solves. Let's chat this week.
When we started Asteroid, I didnโt expect prior authorization to be one of the most meaningful problems weโd work on.
For years, automation couldnโt handle the edge cases of complex healthcare flows. Now browser AI agents can.
We wrote about how frontier AI agents can automate prior auth end-to-end. Link in the thread!
If prior auth is what you do, we can help!
Introducing Radar, real-time collective intelligence for web agents ๐งต
In our tests, agents that get a cache hit on Radar avoid the need for a browser entirely, dramatically improving agent performance
Built & tested with @convex, @daytonaio and @superset_sh, @browser_use
Our healthcare AI browser workforce is growing so fast weโre taking them on tour!
Iโm at @theviveevent in Los Angeles this week!
If you're around and want to chat about browser/computer use agents for healthcare, let's meet:)!
After 3 frontend rebuilds, we found the obvious:
Browser agents need tabs.
Supervise 10+ agents without losing context.
