We've been building TrackMyPG a simple tool to help PG & hostel owners manage tenants, rent, and reminders without chasing people on WhatsApp at midnight.
Most owners still rely on spreadsheets and WhatsApp groups, which gets messy fast. We wanted to build something clean and fully automated.
We re trying something new on Thursday: Alpha Day.
The idea is simple. If this is the first time you re launching your product anywhere, you can tag it alpha and get a boost to your points (and land on a special leaderboard).
TrackMyPG helps PG and hostel owners manage their entire operations without spreadsheets or manual work.
Most PG owners still rely on Excel, WhatsApp, and manual tracking for rent, tenants, and expenses ā which leads to errors and missed payments.
TrackMyPG solves this by providing:
ā¢ Tenant and roommate management
ā¢ Automated monthly rent invoices
ā¢ Payment tracking and reminders
ā¢ Real-time occupancy and revenue insights
ā¢ Multi-property management from a single dashboard
We re teaming up with The Pitch by @Deel, a global startup competition where up to 100 winners will receive $50k in funding and up to 10 winners will receive $1M+.
If you make the cut, you ll also show up on special Product Hunt leaderboards, starting with the first event on April 13.
Every day, after launching, makers are contacted on LinkedIn and X by people offering to sell votes. As the Product Hunt team, we are very much aware of this and really hate it. We have systems in place to neutralize this type of gaming. Every vote counts for a different number of points on Product Hunt. A couple examples:
An account with a recently created gmail address and no history of quality contributions on Product Hunt: this vote will count for 0 points. Yes, this might be a well intentioned user, but we take a conservative approach to protect the community. If the account has a company email or applies for verification on Product Hunt, that's a different story.
An account with a company email address linked to a legitimate LinkedIn account with a history of meaningful contributions on Product Hunt: this vote carries significant weight.
A couple questions for the community:
Are there specific accounts on Product Hunt that you suspect participate in vote selling? You can reply here or email report@producthunt.co
What would you want to see us do differently here?
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:

A few of us at Product Hunt are putting on our most brutally honest (but helpful!) hats and roasting landing pages for the next two days. Want in? Drop your link below, and we ll give you real, no-BS feedback on:
