Hi, I'm Alex, co-founder of YouML.

We've built a service where you can edit ComfyUI workflows in the cloud, and then share them as runnable mini-apps(recipes). Other people can run your workflow with inputs you have defined, and see the results in a web browser, without the need to go into ComfyUI.

For example, here is a recipe that puts your face onto a wizard( https://youml.com/recipes/2118-turn-yourself-into-a-wizard ). It takes a person's image as input, does multiple steps in ComfyUI, and then displays the resulting image( https://youml.com/r/yesepjyyxwxonrqo ).

You can upload most of the existing ComfyUI workflows to YouML and use custom nodes and models. During early beta, there are no charges. Later on, we plan to charge users only for rendering time, but you will not be charged for the time you spent editing the workflow.

We're looking for ComfyUI enthusiasts to try it out and share their feedback. If you would like to become a design partner and help us design this service to better suit your needs, talk to us at the discord community - https://discord.gg/2cQA7SBvP2

You guys broke it! :)

Apparently there is a 7-image per minute hard limit on OpenAI image generation, so come back a bit later.


AI code generation is not yet ready for a full-blown apps, but it works well on smaller well-defined functions. For example, Nekton.ai asks the user to split the workflow into smaller steps, and automates it one by one.


There is also an alternative approach for running code with ChatGPT, the way Nekton(https://nekton.ai) does it. It will use ChatGPT to generate typescript code code, and then just run it in the cloud.

In the end you get similar result - AI generated automation, but you have an option to review what the code will actually do before running it.


While using Auto-GPT I realized that for most usecases, a simple script would have suited my needs better (faster, cheaper, deterministic). Then I realized those scripts can (a) be written by GPT, and (b) call into GPT!


If you are doing the same things over and over every day, you can try automating it with Nekton. Just describe what needs to be done in plain English, step by step. Nekton will then convert your steps into executable code using GPT 4, and run them in the cloud.

Here is a sample workflow that shows service features - https://nekton.ai/start/162-Xcz3PZOkB8OhIeFlOeBTVA

You can automate many different things. Here are some things you can try:

* Find top Reddit posts about AI and send them to my Discord channel.

* Get Reddit posts that mention my project and create a tweet for them.

* Assign my latest GitHub pull request to a person with the fewest open PRs in the project.

* Automate technical support - https://nekton.ai/start/143-HpJtyXEzfRv7UKvqOHySkw

Features:

* Create reusable automated workflows.

* Share workflows with other people - you can send them a link that will start a workflow.

* Collect input with forms before running the automation.

* Run your automation on a schedule. Workflows run in the cloud - no need to keep your browser open.

* Use other services from your workflow. Nekton can securely store access tokens and other credentials needed to access outside services and apps.

* Mix together manual and automated steps in a single workflow.

Since the last post, we made multiple improvements to make it easier to automate things and connect to external services.

I work on this project, and curious to know your thoughts!


Put these workflows on your landing page, I went there and could not figure out what I can use it for.


Good idea! There are some use cases at the bottom of the page, but I guess I need to make them more visible and more specific.


How is it going to tweet from ChatGPT?


Nekton will write the code using GPT4 that will use Twitter API to post the tweet. It will also handle Twitter authentication and get your permission to post.


Ok. I tried posting to twitter, but could not connect to it. Twitter website says that sign in did not happen.


It's likely that GPT generated code to work with old Twitter API that was shut down recently. You can try adding the following to your step description to fix this:

Use twitter V2 api and oauth scope "tweet.write", "tweet.read", "users.read".


that worked, thanks!


It is in TypeScript. After AI writes the initial implementation, you can tweak it, if needed.


How can I import packages from npm? I tried it out and got an error.


Importing packages is not yet implemented, but it's on a roadmap. Stay tuned for updates at our forum - https://community.nekton.ai/
