I wear a WHOOP. I've coached people on movement and sleep for many years and I still can't answer that question for myself. The algorithm is locked. You get a number, you trust it, you stop there.
When we built Open Wearables, we decided the scoring layer should work differently. Sleep Score and Resilience Score shipped in v0.5 - every coefficient, every threshold, every weighting is in the repo and you can fork them, tune for endurance athletes or elder care or clinical populations. Moreover, you run them on your own infrastructure and the same algorithms feed the MCP layer so AI coaching can cite the actual data behind a recommendation instead of approximating.
As founders, calls are part of our daily life. Brainstorming, quick updates, random discussions with the team and there s always value in those moments. But most of the time, all that value just disappears after the call. By connecting Prodshort to your calendar, it automatically joins your calls and turns them into ready-to-post content.
If you're a founder and want to create content, I'm doing short discussion calls. Let's connect !!
Just wanted to share a little "behind the scenes" pain from the OptiClear launch. We all know the Apple App Store review process can be a rollercoaster, and I definitely hit a loop.
I had built this sweet "Invite a Friend" feature. The logic was simple: generate a code, share it with a friend, and both of you earn free premium days. A classic, organic growth loop, right?
Well, Apple hit me with a rejection. Apparently, unlocking premium features outside of their standard In-App Purchase flow (even as a reward) is a big no-no.
I m back with a "from the trenches" update on PawseKeys. We ve been working on bringing that intentional pause to more than just your desktop, and I finally have some movement to share.
This release brings you 2 core features: official Cloud Services and Strategy Engine, fully enhancing the out-of-the-box AI experience and convenient automated task processing capabilities. In addition, this update covers up to 19 new features, 27 improvements, and 15 bug fixes, dedicated to creating a smoother, smarter, and more stable user experience.
YC-backed @Mintlify (YC W22) just announced a $45M Series B round, bringing their total funding to $67M, to "accelerate [their] mission of building the knowledge infrastructure for AI."
Read in their blog announcement:
Mintlify now powers documentation for over 20,000 companies, with content reaching more than 100 million people every year. This round accelerates our mission to become the knowledge layer that makes products understandable, usable and discoverable by AI agents.
Trophy is now powering over 24M streaks which is kind of crazy to think about considering we only launched 1.0 here in January this year. One of the parts I find most interesting about building horizontal infrastructure is that as you scale and power more and more products you get to see insights that most teams building in isolation will only see a part of, and you can use those insights to make the the infrastructure better for everyone. For example, because we power streaks for so many users, Trophy can tell that 25% of all streaks are lost on a Friday, closely followed by Saturday (19%) and then Wednesday (18%).
@Wispr Flow launched on Product Hunt back in 2024. Since then it has become one of those tools that quietly sticks. It's the AI dictation tool a bunch of us here use day to day (yes, there are still a few people committed to typing everything out). It works anywhere on your Mac or PC, so you can just talk and have clean text land wherever your cursor is.
For the next three days, it is showing up on the leaderboard in a different way. From April 14 to 16, you can upvote and comment on Product Hunt using Wispr Flow directly. If you use dictation, those upvotes and comments will carry a bit more weight. Try it out by clicking the Wispr Flow unit on the Leaderboard and telling it to upvote a product name
Most agencies are missing a huge blind spot in their client reports right now. Not because they are bad at their job. Because the game changed and nobody sent a memo. More and more of your clients customers are skipping Google entirely. They go straight to ChatGPT or Perplexity, ask a question, get an answer, and click the brand that gets mentioned. If your client is not getting mentioned? They are losing leads they do not even know exist. I spent the last few months figuring out how to track this properly and turn it into a service agencies can actually sell. Not some complicated AI audit. Just a simple monthly report that shows clients where they stand in AI search, how their competitors are doing, and what to do about it. Agencies adding this are charging between $200 and $500 extra per month per client for it. The conversation is easy because the data is new and clients have never seen it before. I wrote a free playbook covering the whole thing. What AI visibility actually is. The metrics to track. A script for pitching it. A sample report structure. And a 7-day checklist to get your first report delivered. Download here. If you are running an agency and you have been looking for a way to grow revenue without growing your client list, this might be the one.
We launched Velo on Product Hunt this morning without expecting anything.
I thought we'd spend the day refreshing the upvote counter. Instead, I got hooked on reading every comment, watching sign-ups roll in, and seeing users create their first Velo in real time.
Hey everyone! We just shipped v1.4.0 of SideDisplay for Windows with some big updates.
What's new
Multi-Display Support You can now connect up to 3 devices at the same time, each running as its own independent virtual display. Perfect if you want to spread your workspace across a tablet, phone, and Tesla screen all at once.
Per-Display Settings Each connected display now has its own resolution and DPI scaling settings. Click on a display card to configure it individually.
Trial Timer Fix Previously the trial timer kept counting even when your browser disconnected or refreshed. Now it correctly pauses when no device is connected and resumes when you reconnect.
Stability Improvements Better handling of port conflicts, fixed popup positioning issues, and more reliable diagnostics reporting.
We re trying something new on Thursday: Alpha Day.
The idea is simple. If this is the first time you re launching your product anywhere, you can tag it alpha and get a boost to your points (and land on a special leaderboard).
There's almost no public content on how to monetize a Chrome Extension.
Google invited us to do a podcast about it, sharing our learnings on how two bootstrapped guys grew Pretty Prompt to 40,000 users, 25% on annual plans, with ~7% weekly growth, with no VC money.
