PH's asking for three specific things here, inspiration, the problem, and how your approach evolved.
Here's a version tailored to that:
What inspired us to build Canflow: every project board we tried treated AI coding agents as an afterthought. You'd assign a task to a person, then separately go ask Claude Code or Codex to fix something, with zero connection between the two tools.
The problem we set out to solve: teams working with AI coding agents had no single place where humans plan the work and agents actually execute it. Bugs would get reported, but someone still had to manually hand them off to an agent and track the result elsewhere.
How our approach evolved: we started by trying to bolt AI features onto a standard Kanban board, but it felt exactly like what everyone else was doing. The real unlock came when we flipped the model instead of a board built for humans with AI added on, we built the board for agents from the ground up. Now assigning a card to Claude Code or Codex is as native as assigning it to a teammate: it shows up in their queue, they claim it, work it, open a PR, and report back - live on the board, no manual hand-off. Free to start, would love your feedback!
Finally something that makes AI agents feel like teammates rather than terminal spells. Liked how the board quietly handles the handoff and just shows progress, no config maze to climb first.

Who hunted Canflow?
Canflow was hunted by Canflow. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it.
