The Apache-2.0 workflow builder claims 100K+ builders and a $7M Series A backed by Paul Graham and Perplexity, aiming past demo-stage agent tools.
Why now: Workflow builders are racing to bolt on agents, and Sim's Product Hunt launch on July 15 is staking its claim to the production end of that race.
Sim topped its Product Hunt launch with roughly 28.8K GitHub stars, per its Product Hunt listing.
Sim reports 100K+ builders already on the platform and a $7M Series A backed by Paul Graham and Perplexity, per Product Hunt. That's real capital and adoption behind a workflow tool, not just launch-day upvotes.
The tool itself is a visual workspace for building and deploying agentic workflows. It's Apache-2.0 licensed and connects agents to more than 1,000 integrations and LLMs.
What separates Sim from the last wave of workflow builders is the target. It's going after production agents explicitly: Slack bots, compliance agents, data pipelines. That's the same territory n8n and similar tools have owned for years, except the building blocks are agents now instead of static integrations.
Sim's Product Hunt listing doesn't break down how many of those 1,000+ integrations are deep, production-tested connections versus thin API wrappers. Watch what happens the first time one of those compliance agents hits an edge case the integration wasn't built for.
