Got $5,100 MRR in 4 months | What worked for us
Hi PH! :) We’ve launched on Product Hunt twice now. Our first launch was a few months ago. Our second launch happened more recently. As of today, we’re at $5.1k MRR. That didn’t happen overnight. In fact, during both launch days, performance was… underwhelming. But looking back, those launches were still some of the most important things we did. I tried almost every growth tactic I could think...

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) In the past month I tried almost every growth tactic I could think of. Some were huge time sinks, some actually moved the needle. Writing this out so others don’t waste time on the same dead ends I did. For...
A recap of Shipper's last 2 months: Bundle of updates :)
When we started Shipper 55 days ago, it was basically a text box that spat out React code into a sandbox. No onboarding. Since then, things moved fast. The first wave of feedback told us two things loud and clear: people wanted easier ways to get started, and they didn’t want to lose their progress. I won't bore you with each little detail.... But here's part of what we've shipped: Starter...
We <3 building based on your feedback
Hey guys, this announcement is pretty late, but we wanted to let you know that one of the things that separate us from the other tools is that... we're building Shipper 100% based on whatever the community tells us, no exception. Paired with that, I'm constantly building it in public - I'm posting every day and today is day 26 of building Shipper in public. Share any feedback you have, here or...
Indie hackers don't really like GPT-5. So I found made a list of alternatives!
We tested GPT-5 on real-world app building this week. The coding output is 10x better, and the “vibe coding” stuff is impressive as well. But once you try to iterate or fix/edit a few things, it starts to get messy: layout breaks, logic gets overwritten, and small edits often require you to re-explain everything. If you’ve tried tools like Lovable, Cursor, Shipper, Replit, or V0, you’ll notice...
We ranked #7 on our launch day. Thank you, kind people!
Thank you so much to everyone who supported us yesterday 🙏 This was our first time publicly talking about Shipper.now, and the response blew us away. We ended the day with: → #7 Product of the Day → lots of helpful feedback and ideas for what to build next We’re back to building now, but if you ever want to jam on ideas or give feedback, our DMs are open. Thanks again, truly. – David & Daniel
