Got $1,100 MRR after launching 1 month ago | What worked for us

Hi PH :)

We've had our PH launch precisely 1 month ago, and we're now making a little over $1k MRR.

(could've been around $2k but we had to refund some because product wasn't ready yet)

If code is easier to generate, what roles become the real bottleneck now?

Being an engineer myself, I see that many people are outputting more code than ever. Some of it being generated vs. written, the volume of code being outputted has definitely risen. 
There seems to be a shift from "is this something we can build?" to "should we build this and ship it?"
For people who have been recruiting or looking to recruit recently, what roles are you hiring for? 

  1. Role title (I've seen a rise in PM's and Designers personally)

  2. What exactly can they do that AI can't (yet)

  3. Specific signal that you look for when hiring

Are you moving headcount from one type of role to another? 
Would be interested to hear from other growing teams!

Which cities outside of SF are becoming large Startup Hubs?

I've recently seen more cities that are growing teams and building offices that seem to be growing rapidly? 
SF seems like it's one of many hubs that have been growing in the recent years. I'm trying to see which cities people are looking into and where people think will be the next startup hub? 
I've seen mixed opinions on cities like New York and Toronto but would love to hear what other people think as well!

What inspired you to start a business?

I'll say it bluntly that running a business is not as easy as it is presented on the Internet. You have to come up with a good and useful idea, and even then, you don't win.

You can only see the results after a long time. Not everyone can do it for a long time. To do it, you need to have a strong motive. For some people, it may be a family tradition, for some, money.

Why don’t we see more health longevity products here?

Everywhere else I look podcasts, social media, even casual discussions  longevity is a hot topic. Bryan Johnson, for example, shows up in my feed constantly.

For me, health-tech feels like the most valuable thing we could be building. Not just extending life expectancy, but actually improving quality of life.

How often should you launch on Product Hunt?

One of the common questions I get is How often can you publish a product on Product Hunt?

The guidelines state this clearly:

"You can launch as often as you have new significant product iterations available."

How do you manage to focus on your work when so many things are falling apart?

It's a rule that when one aspect of life is going well, the others are somehow failing.

At the moment, things couldn't be better on the work front:

  • I have a great team, and the company is doing well.

  • I'm praised for the results I deliver and the progress I'm making.

  • My networks are growing, and there's more and more interest in my sponsorships.

  • More people want to work together.

  • And I'm co-organising 2 offline events.

How do you test an idea before talking to users?

Genuinely curious: what s your first-mile approach before you book those early interviews?

Do you start with Reddit deep-dives? Reverse-engineer reviews? Talk to personas in your head?

A Smarter Mood Journal for Emotional Wellness

I m excited to introduce Mood Journal, a web app designed to help you track, understand, and improve your mental wellness.

Why I built it

Journaling is powerful but it s often inconsistent, messy, and hard to revisit. I wanted something simple and insightful: a tool that not only captures moods, but actually helps make sense of them.

What makes Mood Journal different

If you were to lose your job right now, what would you do?

I should probably start Monday more optimistically, but let's take it as a little creative exercise.

I see people on Reddit complaining that jobs are really hard to get. With the use of AI technologies, the situation won't be any easier.

How do you feel about offering money to test a product?

Product Hunt was created specifically to showcase what you do. But let s face it, with the progress of AI, there are more and more products and you don t have time to test them all (respect to @gabe , who does this job brilliantly).

I noticed that as my following grew throughout social media, more people contacted me wanting to test products. Of course, I don t have room for everyone, and what s even more shocking is that to get to me, they want to compensate me for testing.

Does OpenAI have the potential to replace LinkedIn? Their latest project.

I often hear that LinkedIn is starting to be cringe, becoming a second Facebook, but let s be honest: it s still a career platform. A little cringe, but it still is.

On the other hand, Sam Altman introduced a new ambition OpenAI Jobs Platform an AI-powered hiring platform, expected to launch by mid-2026.

From Solo Founder to 120+ Upvotes: SnippSync’s First Step

Big thanks to everyone who supported SnippSync yesterday

We ended up at 14th place on Product Hunt not exactly the rank I hoped for, but honestly, more than 120 upvotes means 120+ people took the time to check out my product. For a solo founder like me, that feels pretty amazing

The journey of SnippSync has just started. I m hoping to get some early users onboard and I ll keep adding features based on your needs and requests.

One idea I m already thinking about is organization support so a team (say with 10 seats) could all log in, create snippets, and keep their technical docs always up to date together. I think that could be super useful for companies constantly updating their docs.

Introducing Email Preflight: Link Validation, Brand Voice, and Compatibility

Introducing Email Preflight: Every email you send is a small thesis about your product. It should read like you, render like you tested it on a dozen devices, and not land users on a 404.

Try Text2Query with expanded token limits — for limited time only!

I am thrilled by the reception Text2Query got here on Product Hunt . As a thank-you to early supporters, I am temporarily raising the token limit so you can try more queries, explore bigger schemas, and really push the app s limits.

This is just for a short time , so if you ve been curious, now s the best moment to upload your schema, ask questions in plain English or Spanish, and see how Text2Query transforms them into SQL or MongoDB queries (with clear explanations).

Thank you again for the support. Your feedback is shaping the next version of Text2Query .

How much are you willing to pay for influencer promotion of your product?

At a time when everyone allows themselves to build any solution using AI, it is difficult to differentiate themselves, and makers are betting on more aggressive distribution.

Some differentiate themselves with good tech support, some build their personal brand as a founder, and some pay influencers.

[ChangeLog] August 28 — No more “Coming soon” (and a couple other shiny updates) ✨

Hello friends, and welcome back to the changelog. The devs have been running on a balanced diet of espresso shots and questionable amounts of energy drinks, which means you guessed it: fresh updates are here. From saying goodbye to Coming Soon, to giving you a shiny red self-destruct button, to sprucing up Alternatives, and a shiny new footer, we ve packed a lot into this round.

Coming Soon Forum Threads

The old Coming Soon pages have officially retired (and you lot noticed). From now on, every new product you create gets its own forum thread. It is your place to share updates, drop teasers, or just shout into the void while you wait for launch day. People can still follow from your forum page to get notified when you go live, but now you can actually start the conversation early.

Stop Manually Writing “Next Week’s Priorities” Let AI Do It in Seconds 🚀

Business Ops Managers know the struggle:

Every week, you re handed scattered updates and it s your job to turn them into a clear, structured plan. It takes hours, and it s repetitive.

That s why we built the Slashit App Dynamic AI Template.

With our Generate Next Week s Priorities prompt, you can transform messy team updates into a crystal-clear priority list in seconds.

How can you promote your launch when the "Coming soon" page is not longer available?

Yesterday, @rohanrecommends noticed some changes on this Platform  the "Coming soon" page is gone.

There's no reason to panic because you have plenty of options to be visible, for example:

  • You can place the PH badge (button for support) on your landing page.

  • You can send a reminder email or push notification to your supporter.

  • You can set up a LinkedIn/Facebook virtual event where you insert the link for your launch.

  • You can use PH forums with relevant categories to make announcements if you have previously launched, for example, p/Google, allowing you to use the platform directly.
