MarketFit's PH launch just concluded few hrs back (i.e. on Sep 28).

A big thanks to everyone who cheered us and gave us feedback.

We christened Sep 28 as Don t Sell. Solve Problems day and many endorsed this idea.

This has been the toughest and most incredible launch day we've experienced, anything is possible up until the very last second.

A massive THANK YOU to everyone who upvoted, commented, and shared. You made this launch for Manna 2.0 unforgettable!

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)

According to the 2025 @Stack Overflow Developer Survey (49,000+ participants), @VS Code and @Visual Studio remain the most used dev environments, despite the rise of subscription-based, AI-enabled code editors @Cursor and @Windsurf among others. Both maintain their top spots relying on extensions as optional, paid AI services like @Github Copilot and @Kilo Code.

Curious which IDE the Product Hunt community uses the most?

This is more of a feedback for marketers who are trying to establish contact with bigger influencers.

Thanks to my experience from "both sides", I noticed certain patterns that could work better and satisfaction would be on both sides. :)

The AI gold rush feels like it rewards teams who ship fast. Many teams are working on a 9-9-6 (9am-9pm, 6 days a week) schedule to keep up with the state of the art breakthroughs and features. Does this give teams an edge against their competition or is this slowly burning teams out.
If you're building in the AI space, I would love to hear what your take is:

• What works for your team and do you follow the 996 schedule?

• Did following a 996 culture create more bugs or actually lead to breakthroughs and push you ahead of your competition?

• How would you balance your life outside of work if you followed this schedule?

Making this post to raise awareness and ideally find a middle ground for teams that are currently growing and trying to keep up with the competition

Hello friends, and welcome back to the changelog. The devs have been running on a balanced diet of espresso shots and questionable amounts of energy drinks, which means you guessed it: fresh updates are here. From saying goodbye to Coming Soon, to giving you a shiny red self-destruct button, to sprucing up Alternatives, and a shiny new footer, we ve packed a lot into this round.

Coming Soon Forum Threads

The old Coming Soon pages have officially retired (and you lot noticed). From now on, every new product you create gets its own forum thread. It is your place to share updates, drop teasers, or just shout into the void while you wait for launch day. People can still follow from your forum page to get notified when you go live, but now you can actually start the conversation early.

From day one, I imagined what First Answer could be, and today it s finally live!

We believe brand visibility is shifting fast: it s no longer just about Google.

As a Business Operations Manager (or really anyone managing tasks), one of the most repetitive things is sending follow-ups with deadlines.

How it usually goes:

• Type from scratch

• Or copy an old message

• Edit, resend, repeat

It wastes time and often makes communication inconsistent.

Last year @Clustr looked healthy with 10,000+ active users, 10-minute sessions and $20,000 in MRR. Yet users churned quickly traction didn t equal stickiness. After hundreds of growth experiments we finally pulled the plug, trimmed the team from 12 to 2, and plunged into pivot hell.

Dozens of dead ends later, I flew to San Francisco hunting for answers. On a quick walk in Dogpatch, Tom Blomfield (Monzo Bank/GoCardless) hit me with the line that finally cut through the fog:

I spend a lot more time on PH at the moment to see what indepedent makers are spending their time on. I've noticed some patterns and also want to share a little bit about my journey at South Park Commons. Most startup stories begin at zero when there s already a team, an idea, maybe even a prototype. But at South Park Commons (SPC), the philosophy is different: people gather in the -1 to 0 stage. That liminal space where you don t yet know what you re building or even if you should build at all. It s a place for exploration, experimentation, and being brutally honest about what s working and what s not.

A hallmark of SPC is how often industry leaders drop by to share what they ve learned in the wild. Recently, I was in a small chat with Tyler Payne former Google and LinkedIn AI lead, startup builder, who has spent the last decade helping teams actually ship real-world ML systems. We're always talking about what's being launched at SPC.

Hey PH friends!

Sohazur again, Founder of @ReachLLM. It s been 31 days since we launched this little tool, and I wanted to share where we ve come and where we re headed. The last update was on Day 8. We ve been laser-focused on making @ReachLLM better every single day. Here s what we ve shipped since that Week 1 post:
Here's the summary :

• User research & feedback loops, iterating only on what real users ask for.

• Brand Intelligence tweaks:

  • Added Load more for AI SEO keywords & AI prompts.

    

  • Option to copy the competitor's website and do a quick search about it on Google, and a ChatGPT option.

    

• Prompt Monitor enhancements: re-prompt old queries to track the updates or progress.

  

• GEO Audit Updates:

  • Technical SEO accuracy improved, now up to 97%.

  • The content quality evaluator agent can now take 5 more context.

    

  • Removed unrealistic checks that are not applicable to most brands, yet LLMs prefer (such as Wikipedia presence).

    

  • More holistic but niche-specific deep research to evaluate the authority and credibility of the brands that the LLMs prefer.

    

  • Also, across the GEO audit, simplified the languages for everyone to understand without technical expertise.

• Actionable tooling: Now you can generate LLMs.txt files right inside@ReachLLM. Try the LLMs.txt Generator!

  

  Learn more about llms.txt files here.

• Export options: downloadable PDF + CSV for GEO reports.

  

• Option to add a default country and language in the profile section. This is so that the user doesn't have to change them over and over again.

  

• Lots of bug fixes across the board.

• And finally, we have rolled out the Plus and Pro subscriptions.
