Not everything needs AI

These days, almost every product that launches comes with some form of AI. It's become the default AI for this, AI for that. And honestly, most of them don t really need it. The result? Everything starts to feel the same. The only real selling point becomes we use AI.

That s exactly why I started building @HumanEye because not every problem should be solved by AI. Some things, like resume reviews and career guidance, still deserve the human touch. Real feedback, from real people.

Would love to hear your thoughts:

  • Are we overusing AI just for the sake of hype?

  • Have you come across products that felt forced because of their AI features?

  • What are some areas where human input still matters most?

We just updated the docs! 🚀

Hey everyone
We ve just pushed a fresh update to the Blockies Animate documentation!
Now it s way easier to understand how each animation works, with clear examples and faster setup.

We're also working hard behind the scenes to bring new installation options including CLI so you can integrate Blockies Animate however it fits your flow

Check out the new docs: Blockies Animate

We re building this with and for you, so your feedback means everything.
Let us know what you think, what s missing, or what would make it better for you.

Everyone can use, study, and improve the source code

I've added a license (AGPL-3.0 license) and hoping someone, somewhere does something with this:

I am open to questions, anytime.

What's your favorite transactional + marketing email stack for an early-stage startup?

I am launching a product soon and trying to select the best email stack. I am currently between MailerLite + MailerSend and Loops, both seem to have a good UX. For auth emails, using Supabase for now.

What's important for me:

  • Low-risk, paying only if the project will actually gain users.

  • Possibility to send a custom "Best matches" email that can be sent weekly automatically

How many analytics tools is too many? (Asking for a friend... okay, it's me)

Fellow makers, I need some real talk here.

Anyone else feel like they're spending more time switching between tons of tools than actually building?

I'm launching something on June 27th that combines all of this into one platform (Crowd), but genuinely curious - what's your analytics stack looking like these days?

Are we all just collectively accepting that customer intelligence requires 5+ subscriptions, or is there a better way?

I review hundreds of products daily and try to demo as many as I can - what do you want to learn?

I'm a product nerd. I love demoing and testing out products and am blessed that I can do this as part of my work here at Product Hunt but I sometimes forget to share my thoughts and impressions from testing products with the community....and I want to change that!
What would you like to see if I were to start sharing some reviews, product comparisons, and first impressions of Products that are launched or discovered? What aren't you currently seeing in reviews!
Throw any ideas, ask me anything, this is ultimately for you all!

Is it worth launching a UK-only fintech product on Product Hunt?

Hi everyone

We re preparing to launch a fintech product that s only available in the UK market; it s not global (at least not yet). The product is quite localised, both in terms of functionality (e.g. UK open banking, GBP, local tax wrappers) and legal structure.

We know Product Hunt is a global platform with a large US-based audience, so we re wondering: does it still make sense to launch here?

How successful were you when you used influencer marketing for promoting your business or product?

A few minutes ago, I read an overview of a report that more people take a source of news, not traditional outlets and media, but influencers. [I am attaching the screenshot from Reutersinstitute.]

TL;DR:

FB, YT, IG  More attention is dedicated to news media/journalists

Will we still be “prompt engineering” next year?

Right now, using AI still takes effort. You type something in, it gives you something weird, so you tweak the prompt, try again, change the phrasing, and hope for the best.

But with every LLM update, it feels like they re finally starting to understand stuff like need title for slide and description. And honestly? Sometimes the answers I get clarify the task or problem I was trying to solve in the first place.

WebVisor got a midnight makeover (again) — clearer copy, cookieless core.

Hey PH fam ,

Josh here the solo dev who launched WebVisor, read every single one of your brutal comments, and immediately brewed an irresponsible amount of coffee.

Do you know any impactful social responsible projects?

Many of us appreciate tools that save us time or money in our businesses. But there are also projects out there with a bigger mission (improving lives, supporting the planet, and helping those in need, to name a few).

Do you know of any inspiring projects that aim to make the world a better place?

Have you ever pivoted your business / idea? 💡

Tons of great products that we know and use everyday are the result of pivots. You know, sometimes the original idea just isn't working and you have to find a new niche and quick, other times you stumble on a use case that changes the whole game.

Have you ever pivoted? What's the story behind it? How successful was the pivot? I'd love to hear your stories, and potentially feature them in our newsletters!

What tech stack do you use for your work? (Hardware + Software)

Most people in this community are makers (I guess developers and marketers).

We spend most of our time in front of the computer, on video calls and the like. Understandably, we want to make it easier and more enjoyable.

What tech stack do you have that makes your work easier?

THANK YOU Product Hunt community! 🙌 We were voted number 1 because of all your support. 🫶🏾

What an incredible launch day! The support from makers, founders, and builders has been absolutely amazing. Seeing everyone rally around our mission to give builders a quick way to build, launch and monetize their products honestly made our entire team do happy dances!

But here's where we need YOUR help...

We're on a mission to make billing and pricing actually enjoyable (yes, we said enjoyable! ). If you've logged into Atlas and tried it out - even for just a few minutes - we'd LOVE to hear from you!
