Yesterday's Top Launches: 5 Tools from February 23, 2026 | productdirs

Yesterday brought another wave of digital innovation, particularly strong in the realm of new developer tools and productivity enhancers. From controlling your primary machine remotely to streamlining creative workflows, five products caught our attention.

Macky

For developers who often find themselves needing to run a quick command on their Mac while away from their desk, Macky presents an elegant solution. It’s a mobile terminal client that gives you secure, real-time access to your Mac’s command line directly from your iPhone. The idea of being able to execute Zsh or Bash commands, or even interact with AI coding assistants like Claude Code and Codex, from your phone is compelling. The use of end-to-end encrypted WebRTC for the connection addresses the immediate security concerns that come with remote access.

This feels like a niche tool, but for that niche—system administrators, developers managing remote servers, or anyone who lives in the terminal—it could be genuinely transformative. The freemium model suggests a basic version will be available for free, which is perfect for testing how seamlessly it integrates into your daily flow before committing.

Liquid Sounds

Stepping away from code, Liquid Sounds tackles a different but equally critical aspect of productivity: focus. It’s a web and mobile app offering a library of over 100 high-quality immersive sounds designed for sleep, meditation, and concentration. Features like sleep timers, background play, and cloud syncing across devices are fairly standard for this category, but execution is everything. A well-designed soundscape can be the difference between a distracted afternoon and a deeply productive flow state.

Given that it’s completely free, it’s hard to find fault. It’s positioned as a straightforward utility. For developers working in noisy open offices or from home with distractions, a tool like this can be a simple yet effective way to create a personal auditory environment conducive to coding.

Prism Videos

The demand for short-form video content is relentless, especially for marketing apps and products. Prism enters the arena as an AI video creation platform aimed at simplifying what is often a fragmented process. Instead of jumping between separate tools for asset generation, editing, and sequencing, Prism provides a unified workspace. Its key differentiator seems to be its ability to generate both image and video assets by pulling from multiple AI models, presumably allowing users to find the style that best fits their brand.

The promise is enticing for solo developers or small teams who need to create promotional content but lack the time or resources for a full-scale production studio. As a freemium web app, it invites experimentation. The real test will be the quality and coherence of the AI-generated assets and how intuitive the editing interface feels for non-video professionals.

EasyResume

While not a developer tool in the traditional sense, EasyResume serves a universal need in the tech industry: crafting a resume that actually gets noticed. It’s a web-based resume builder focusing on ATS-friendly templates, which is a critical detail for anyone applying to larger companies where applicant tracking systems screen applications first. The live preview editing and instant PDF download are baseline expectations, but the pricing model is what stands out.

At a one-time fee of just ₹30 (roughly $0.36 USD) per resume with no subscriptions or watermarks, it’s aggressively positioned against subscription-based competitors. This is a straightforward, honest utility. For a developer polishing their CV for a new job hunt, the low cost and lack of recurring charges make it a risk-free option worth considering.

Woise

Providing clear, actionable feedback on website UX and bugs can be surprisingly difficult. Written descriptions often fail to capture the nuance of an issue. Woise addresses this by allowing users to capture screen recordings complete with their voice narration. This alone would be useful, but the integration of AI to automatically transcribe the voice recordings into searchable text is the smart addition. It turns a qualitative video report into quantitative, searchable data that a development team can easily triage and address.

As a freemium tool available on web and mobile, Woise seems ideal for product managers, QA testers, and development teams who rely on user feedback loops. It could significantly reduce the back-and-forth typically required to understand and reproduce a reported bug.
