AI assistants are still single-player.
Introducing Rowboat: the multiplayer personal assistant for work. rowboatlabs.com
In Rowboat, your team and their assistants sketch on a whiteboard, write specs together, and say '@rowboat implement it'. Your own Claude Code ships it.
One shared space for your team. Your own assistant running on your machine. Open-source. Self-hosted.

Launched Rowboat Work Surfaces on Show HN this week - front page, 214 points.
This is what it did to our daily active users. The dip right before is July 4th weekend.

Today I asked latest Opus how to enable mic and speaker on a remote mac mini on AWS. Its top suggestion was ‘why don’t you just use your macbook’. Please don’t pause AI development.
