How do you approach Context Engineering when building with OpenAI models?
Lately, I have been experimenting with how to feed context into GPT models more effectively.
For example, when fine-tuning or working with larger context windows, I have noticed that the dilemma is in organizing the surrounding information, rather than the prompt itself. Last week, I came to know that it's called Context Engineering.
Hi Product Hunt 👋 I’m Ebony, a mom + tech optimist building in AI
Hey everyone, I m Ebony.
I ve spent the last decade working alongside founders and CEOs in Silicon Valley, and now I m building in the consumer AI space myself. I m a tech optimist at heart I believe the future of technology shouldn t just be more advanced, it should be more human.
I m especially interested in making AI usable and empowering for everyday people, not just experts.
A little about me: I m a mom of four, a lifelong community builder, and I ve always been drawn to projects that put care and connection at the center of design. Right now, I m working on something new (still semi-stealth) that tries to do exactly that.
Accepting payments? Yikes!
Hi everyone! I'm Travis, I've been a software developer since 2006 and I've worked on a good number of open source projects and side projects. Recently I integrated Stripe for the first time in one of my projects, in order to....*gasp*....charge users and accept payments. The integration was easier than expected, but it still feels kind of slimy to be asking for money for something that was a side project and I just built for fun. On the other hand, I'm using OpenAI credits, so if I actually gave it away totally for free, it would simply cost me more and more money as time went on, especially if it went viral (the dream). So I justify the payments as a scaling/sustainability measure.
Interested to hear others' perspective on this one. Is accepting payments completely shameless? Does it sully the reputation of your project? Necessary evil?
706 streak… and I’m relaunching today 🚀
706 days. That s how long I ve been on Product Hunt without missing a single day.
Last year, I launched the first version of Heep.ai to help restaurants manage bookings directly on WhatsApp, Instagram, and Messenger. It was simple and manual, but it worked.
Does OpenAI have the potential to replace LinkedIn? Their latest project.
I often hear that LinkedIn is starting to be cringe, becoming a second Facebook, but let s be honest: it s still a career platform. A little cringe, but it still is.
On the other hand, Sam Altman introduced a new ambition OpenAI Jobs Platform an AI-powered hiring platform, expected to launch by mid-2026.
Which European country will become a startup "mecca"?
America has always been seen as a place where tech startups are born (especially Silicon Valley and San Francisco).
Historically, Europe has been a place for universities and banks (Italy, etc.)
How much are you willing to pay for influencer promotion of your product?
At a time when everyone allows themselves to build any solution using AI, it is difficult to differentiate themselves, and makers are betting on more aggressive distribution.
Some differentiate themselves with good tech support, some build their personal brand as a founder, and some pay influencers.
[ChangeLog] August 28 — No more “Coming soon” (and a couple other shiny updates) ✨
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.
