My Top 5 Launches From The Last Week (From The POV of a Startup Scout)
I used to be a startup scout, and one of my sources of deal flow was actually the Product Hunt leaderboard. For fun, I m going to pick the top five products I find most interesting that launched in the last week from a scout POV. I ll try to veer away from the top products each day to keep things interesting.
@Check Supply (Send checks in the mail) --> Takes something that s been around for decades and feels like it s stuck in the Stone Age, and lowers the friction to accomplish the task at hand. Do young Gen Z ers even know how to write a check? I don't know, but I know many systems still rely on these. This makes sense.
@PickR (free e-sports prediction game) - Betting is in. I can bet on political events via @Polymarket. I can bet on sports. It s natural to assume betting on e-sports is going to be just as big (if not bigger). I see PickR building the stepping stones to unlock the next wave of betting, for better or for worse. (I don t even know if this is their intent, but this is where my brain went.)
