It can inspect the scene, build and edit objects, and run multi-step workflows with the model of your choice. https://gettoolrank.com/new/nemotron-3-5-super-vl/https://gettoolrank.com/new/nemotron-3-5-super-vl/Thu, 15 Oct 2026 12:00:00 GMTNVIDIA's new open multimodal model, built to power specialized agents that reason over images and text. An open multimodal model from NVIDIA for building specialized agents that need to read documents, charts and video as well as text. It can be fine-tuned on your own data with NeMo. https://gettoolrank.com/new/maybloc/https://gettoolrank.com/new/maybloc/Thu, 15 Oct 2026 12:00:00 GMTMaybloc is a speech-to-text service aimed at recordings with multiple speakers, like meetings and podcasts. A speech-to-text API built for recordings with several people talking over each other, such as meetings, interviews and podcasts. It separates each voice and keeps overlapping speech instead of dropping it. https://gettoolrank.com/new/muse-spark-open/https://gettoolrank.com/new/muse-spark-open/Thu, 15 Oct 2026 12:00:00 GMTMuse Spark Open is Meta's open-weights release of Muse Spark: an 816B-parameter (42B active) multimodal model with a 1M-token context, built for coding and agentic work. Meta's open-weights release of Muse Spark, a very large multimodal model for coding and agentic work with a 1M-token context. It's for teams that want frontier-class open weights and have the hardware to run them, or a provider that does. https://gettoolrank.com/new/graphicle/https://gettoolrank.com/new/graphicle/Wed, 14 Oct 2026 12:00:00 GMTGraphicle gives coding agents like Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor a code graph and memory in a single Rust program. Gives coding agents a code graph and a project memory with cited excerpts (exact files and lines). Agents can find relevant code, docs and past decisions without you pasting them in, and everything runs locally. https://gettoolrank.com/new/scout/https://gettoolrank.com/new/scout/Tue, 13 Oct 2026 12:00:00 GMTScout is Outcrawl's open-source browser agent, which automates web tasks in a real browser. An open-source browser agent library: describe a task in plain words and it drives a real browser until the job is done. It's for developers adding web automation to their apps, with any chat-completions model. https://gettoolrank.com/new/esp32-iphone-agent/https://gettoolrank.com/new/esp32-iphone-agent/Sun, 11 Oct 2026 12:00:00 GMTAn open-source project that lets an AI model operate a real iPhone using a $7 ESP32 board, seeing the screen over AirPlay and tapping through USB input. Lets an AI vision model operate a real, unmodified iPhone using about $7 of hardware. It's for makers and testers who want phone automation without a jailbreak or a developer account. https://gettoolrank.com/new/hermes-official-plugins/https://gettoolrank.com/new/hermes-official-plugins/Sat, 10 Oct 2026 12:00:00 GMTNous Research released official plugins for its Hermes Agent, adding integrations such as Home Assistant.

Lets coding agents use your everyday, signed-in Chrome in background tabs, so they can do real web tasks without taking over your screen. Optional approvals and an audit trail add oversight. https://gettoolrank.com/new/diff-tour/https://gettoolrank.com/new/diff-tour/Sat, 10 Oct 2026 12:00:00 GMTDiff Tour turns a git change into a guided, read-only walkthrough in the terminal, the way a senior engineer would review it. Turns a git change into a guided tour of how a senior engineer would review it.
