When I first launched on Product Hunt, I had no idea what to expect. I wasn t sure anyone would notice our little startup, and honestly, I felt intimidated. Everyone seemed so established, and I didn t know where I fit in.

But then something incredible happened. A kind comment from @aaronoleary. Encouragement from the PH community. Support from the Product Hunt team when we ran into issues. A hunt from @benln. A thoughtful reply from @rajiv_ayyangar himself.

• That first launch became Product of the Day.

• We were later nominated for Product of the Year.

• In 2023, I was named Community Member of the Year.

• And now in 2025, I ve been invited to serve as a Product Hunt Ambassador!

Hey Product Hunt!

I am Abdul Rehman, excited to join this incredible community of builders, makers, and tech lovers.

I recently launched ImmigrantVLI, a site aimed at helping immigrants understand the U.S. visa process, their legal rights, and more. It s something I wish I had when I was navigating the system, so I built it to help others going through the same experience.

I am here to learn from others, get feedback, and connect with people who are building meaningful stuff, whether it s in tech, social impact, or just cool side projects.

I ve always wondered how different cultures, companies, or individuals approach financial transparency in business. Some stay silent, others overshare.

Here are some trends I ve noticed:
