Wabi 2.0 Hands-On: Orchestrator Plus Scenario-Based Chats
After trying Wabi 2.0, Nikunj Kothari believes its "orchestrator + themed scenario-based chats" paradigm gets it right: scenario chats can be shared, can be proactively generated, and don't need to be kept forever—for example, a New York itinerary is archived once the trip ends. He criticizes the product for being overly proactive and says the app experience still needs improvement, and states that he is neither a paying user nor an investor.

A few weeks ago, I was ranting about multiplayer AI experiences and that's when @ekuyda shared an early preview of Wabi 2.0..
Truth be told, I was one of the early users of Wabi 1.0 and while the design was gorgeous, it frankly never "stuck" with me.
But, in moments of downloading this edition, I was immediately hooked.
It just gets the "paradigm" right imo. There are two types of personal agents today: 1) Singleplayer iMessage or Muse types - while useful it's hard to compartmentalize them when many things are going on 2) Build your own multiple chat Hermes agents - while that's useful and can share context, they live forever
Wabi has this great paradigm of orchestrator (which is the main agent) and topic specific episodic chats that are for a single purpose. You can share these individual chats with folks (for example the school one with my wife). And these are generated proactively AND don't need to stay forever (which is important).
For example, for my recent NY trip, it was generated based on a flight it saw, provided help where needed, and then after the trip was done, it was archived. Same with my 2025 taxes.
My only critique so far it's TOO proactive, the apps can be better and they need to dial both of those in, but this is a wonderful product that everyone should try!
(I know it's shocking to see this in today's day and age, but this is neither paid, nor an investor, just a fan)
