If your launch does not go as planned, do not judge it too quickly.
Avoid the instinct to immediately add more features or pivot the product.

Instead, pause and evaluate what already exists.
Check whether the core features are clearly communicated, fully polished, and genuinely solve the intended problem.
Often, the issue is not the idea, but the execution, positioning, or user experience.

Refine what you have. Improve clarity, usability, onboarding, and messaging.
Then relaunch with focus and confidence.

Many products fail not because they were wrong, but because they were unfinished, unclear, or rushed.

I juggle Claude Code, Gemini CLI, and Codex daily. Here's what actually works:

• The secret is context engineering feed AI code that works, it writes code that works

• Use open-source aggressively. Load proven repos with /add-dir as context

• Debugging servers? Let AI call your APIs directly it catches errors in real-time, not you describing symptoms for hours

• Stuck with one agent? Switch mid-task without losing context

The more information and ads we re exposed to, the more resistant we become.

(It s literally impossible to absorb everything, so our brains just filter most of it out.)

BUT there s always that one exception.

We ve already talked a few times about how handing a child a tablet isn t always the best solution.

Meanwhile, some countries are starting to ban access to social media for minors (even my country is considering a ban up to age 16).

But there are certain technologies that can actually develop a child s talent and imagination through play.

I keep hearing wildly different answers from teams at different stages. Some say a day. Others say two weeks because design, copy, approvals, and dev cycles stack up. I am trying to understand the real bottlenecks teams face when shipping something as simple as a landing page. Curious to hear how things actually work inside your team.

AI dev tools are evolving crazy fast , every few weeks there s a new must-try for vibe coders.

Some people are building full products with @ChatGPT by OpenAI and @Replit , others swear by @Cursor and @Claude by Anthropic , and a few are mixing @Lovable + @v0 by Vercel + @bolt.new to ship apps in record time.

I ve been refining my own vibe stack lately, trying to find that sweet spot between speed, control, and creativity.
It made me wonder ,what does your setup look like right now?

I wanted to take a moment to personally thank you all for the love and support on our launch!

It's truly a special moment when other resonate with the problem you're solving and the way you're solving it.

Sometimes I have a problem to have a look at my past milestones or things I have achieved so far.
When I think about it, even creating my first product was a success for me. I ve always been a bit shy and afraid to show what I was working on, or I just didn t know how to present it properly, so it took me a really long time.

My first product was an online workout program with a payment gateway, and the monthly price was ridiculously low. But I managed to monetise it and had my first customers. I was probably around 20 at the time.

• What was your first product?

• What would you do differently to maintain it and make it successful?

• What lesson did you learn from it?

Hi PH community!

We've been steadily improving Tower over the past few months, with huge progress since 2024.
Tower now connects directly to your data, automatically builds semantics, transformations, and dashboards, and generates actionable insights in minutes.

New in 2025.10:

• Tower Pipelines: Combine multiple sources (HubSpot, Snowflake, Airtable, Excel, Databricks, MS SQL, Tally Prime, and more) without a separate ETL tool

• Tablet Apps: AI-native dashboards for iOS & Android

• Smarter AI analytics & new connectors

• Intelligent data transforms

• Tons of performance and UI/UX improvements

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.

To JetBrains users: what are your most recommended plugins?
I'm currently playing around with @Kilo Code for JetBrains (launching this Sunday) and I'd like to make the most out of this experience.

Thanks! cc @zmirnofa

Traditional professions like doctors, judges, and the like need specialised academic guidance (certificate) + experience. I agree.

But what about technical and humanities? So far, everyone has argued that a university will bring contacts (I'm not arguing, that's true... but the same can be done with hustling/projects).

I launched my SaaS company, Encharge, in 2019 with less than $1,000 in my account, no funding, no network, no audience, and no accelerators. It generated $2 million before we sold it. Here are 17 things I learned from it.

1. Startups are a last-man-standing game.

The one to win is not the fastest, smartest, or best. It's the most persistent and resilient.

A week ago, Y Combinator held its Summer 2025 Demo Day in San Francisco, showcasing over 160 startups and highlighting 9 highly focused ones.

TL;DR: The most trending were AI-focused, specifically AI agents.

One of the common questions I get is How often can you publish a product on Product Hunt?

The guidelines state this clearly:

"You can launch as often as you have new significant product iterations available."

Real-time voice AI is young, and the tools and infrastructure that will power its future are being built right now.

After working with and speaking to hundreds of teams building voice AI agents, we ve learned a lot.

I just finished my first cloud project using Claude Code and I ran five different agents:

a PM

a QA

a Designer

Hey everyone

We ve just shipped the biggest update since our initial release. The dashboard has been completely refreshed. It s faster, more stable, and comes with new features like Dashboard, Feed, and Mark as Read.

Thank you to everyone who supported the launch! We ranked 6th yesterday.

For those just discovering us: GitArsenal solves that painful moment when you find a cool GitHub repo but spend hours fighting dependency hell instead of actually running the code. Our AI agent automatically handles the entire setup process, from analyzing the codebase to debugging errors to provisioning the right hardware.
What features would make you actually use this?

1. VSCode/Cursor integration so it opens right in your IDE?

2. Team sharing so your whole company can run the same environments?

3. Docker export for deployment?

4. Something else entirely?
   Also Coming very soon: Full GitArsenal app with GUI, better logging, and way more control over the setup process.

Current status: CLI working, tested on 100+ repos from simple scripts to complex ML research. We're iterating fast based on real user feedback, and testing more on different categories of Repos.

Hiring season is here. Are you ready?

The next few months are interview-heavy, and standing out means being sharp, fast, and confident. That s why we ve rolled out new Mockin updates to make your interview prep easier than ever.

1. Flexible PRO access

Not ready for a monthly commitment? Grab our new 24-hour or 72-hour one-time PRO passes. Perfect for a quick refresh before that big interview no subscriptions, no hassle.
