Startup Wabi turns its AI app builder into a personal agent generating interfaces on demand (Wabi 2.0)
The startup Wabi (founded by Eugenia Kuyda) is moving from an AI app builder to a personal agent that combines messaging with on-demand interface generation. Version 2.0 is for now available only with an invite code on X and competes with agents such as Meta Muse and Instinct.
Wabi, a startup previously focused on building apps via prompts (vibe coding), has announced Wabi 2.0, which according to the company turns the product into "a personal agent that does things for the user and creates the interface that is needed at that particular moment." Founder Eugenia Kuyda, previously behind the AI companion startup Replika, described the change as a response to the fact that a purely text-based conversation with an agent becomes unwieldy as usage grows — history and tasks get lost in one endless scroll.
According to the company, Wabi 2.0 combines messaging with on-demand user interface generation: when a user asks the agent to complete a task, the agent can create a specific tool directly within the conversation — for example a calorie tracker, a strength-training journal, or a calendar of children's activities, tied to the topic of the given thread (e.g. health or family). The goal, according to Kuyda, is to connect the agent, apps, and people in one place, instead of the "one person, one chat, a series of one-off tasks" model.
With this move, Wabi is shifting from the vibe-coding tools category into competition with products such as Meta Muse and Instinct, i.e. agents that combine conversation and productivity tasks in a single interface. It is also mentioned that at its Dev Day, OpenAI updated plugins in ChatGPT that allow apps to offer interactive experiences directly inside the chatbot.
Wabi 2.0 is currently available only via an invite code, which the company distributes through the platform X.
Why it matters
It shows a shift in AI agent design from purely text-based conversation toward a hybrid model, where the agent creates specific mini-tools on the fly for a given task — a trend that Meta and OpenAI are simultaneously pursuing as well. For companies developing AI products, this is a signal that the market is moving toward linking chat with generated software, which may influence users' future expectations of similar tools.
Two audiences, two different impacts
What this means
For individuals
Instead of a purely text-based conversation with an AI agent, a user could receive continuously generated mini-interfaces (calendars, trackers, lists) directly within a single chat — though for now only in a limited invite-only phase.
For a business
The pivot signals a broader trend in the AI agent market toward combining chat with generated software interfaces (similar to Meta Muse, Instinct, or ChatGPT plugin updates), which is relevant context for companies developing their own AI products or considering integrating agents into their services.
