A tagline is the first piece of content a user will see about your product on the leaderboard. It's so important that you get it right. You should be able to get a really solid idea of what your product is just by reading a handful of words.

In the spirit of forever optimising our taglines, I wanted to do a little experiment:

I am curious how people actually do it.

There are tons of stories about founders launching SaaS products without an existing audience. No Twitter following, no newsletter, no community, nothing. Yet some still manage to get early traction and even hit real MRR.

If you have started from zero, I would love to hear:

• How you got your first users

• What channels brought the earliest traction

• Whether cold outreach works or not

• If content played a role or if you focused mainly on building

• What you would do differently if you had to start again

Hi PH Team!

Earlier I used to spend hours in creating a report from Excel / Database data. I used lot of BI tools like Power BI, Tableau, etc. Data cleaning, Data Transformation and Writing Queries took most of the time while generating reports and Insights.

But with AutoGen Reports, all the overhead of identifying measures and dimensions, writing queries to join the tables and creating the charts were nullified.

You upload the file and the report is generated. Want Custom Dashboards, Use DIY Dashboard Feature. Now Report Generation takes only 2 minutes. Just upload the file. AutoGen takes care of everything else!

jnHey Product Hunt!

I m a young builder working on an AI tool that automates weekly reports across tools like Meta Ads, Stripe, Google Sheets, etc. so founders don t have to juggle dashboards or spreadsheets.

I m not selling anything. Just trying to speak with 5 10 early-stage founders or agency owners to understand:

What frustrates you the most about reporting today?

Public launch directly on Product Hunt vs going on Product Hunt a bit later.

I am looking to compare and learn from experiences of others.

PH launch is a must - so question is only about the timing.

We're seeing growing interest in our product people visit, explore the homepage, even watch the demo. But most stop short of signing up or engaging with the core features.

We re considering open-sourcing the core product and keeping advanced capabilities (like customization, automation, database support) as paid upgrades. The idea is to remove the try before trust barrier and build credibility through transparency.

We ve seen some platforms go this route and it seems to work. But we re curious:

Early on, marketing is just as important as building the product, especially if you want a successful launch.

Some say the fit in Product-Market Fit is really about marketing. I tend to agree.
For me, when I founded my first company, I was more comfortable writing code than copywriting. When I started trying to sell the first product I developed, I realised just how much I didn t know about Go-To-Market (GTM) and marketing.
I ve tried everything from cold outreach to reading all the books I could find. After my second company failed, I actually went back to being an operator and only took "business" roles to try and learn as much as possible from doing.

So, if you don t have an MBA or business background, how are you tackling this side of things?

Are you talking to mentors, reading books, taking online courses, using LLMs, or something else entirely?

Hi everyone

I m Atchaya, a former software engineer turned founder and I recently launched a tool called AutoGen Reports.

It started because my friend (and many others) were stuck spending hours cleaning Excel files and building reports manually. Tools like Power BI felt like overkill for quick insights.

Launching a product that I've been working on for a while, solving a problem that I am passionate about, and truly believe can help thousands of people. But then, getting nothing other than crickets from the community, seems like a very daunting prospect to me.
I'd love to know if you have had a flop launch in the past, what did you do to turn it around. Or if you haven't turned around, what are you planning to do?
What have you learnt from success stories, best practices, things that really make you feel ready for that launch and take anything that you get back from it..?

It's simple. Drop your next big idea and get some brutally honest but hopefully valuable feedback. The rules are:

• Drop your idea, you don't have to go super in depth but give a sentence or two about what it is and does.

• Get roasted, duh

• Roast someone else's.

That way we create a cycle of feedback
