Best feature management tool for B2B SaaS?

What tool like @LaunchDarkly @PostHog @Hypertune or @Bucket do you use for feature flagging/rollout?

Feature management (also known as feature flag management) is a modern software development process involving the progressive delivery of feature releases to specific user groups through features and feature flags (sometimes called feature toggles).

Voice input for Cursor?

Has anyone been successfully talking to Cursor? I started using Superwhisper but having to copy-paste the generated transcription into Cursor is a chore. Looking for something that just works.

Build an audience first, or launch and grow later?

This is probably one of the most debated topics in the startup world: Should you build an audience before you launch, or is it better to launch first and grow your audience afterward? I ve seen both approaches work, but each comes with its own set of challenges and rewards. - Building an audience first means you're creating buzz, validating your idea, and nurturing a community of early adopters who are invested in your success. But it takes time, patience, and a lot of effort to keep the momentum going before you even have a product to show. - Launching first lets you hit the ground running, gather real-world feedback, and iterate quickly. But without an existing audience, you might struggle to get those initial users and traction. So, indulge me: Which approach did you take or are you considering taking (those who haven't launched yet)? - Did you build an audience before launching your product, or did you launch and then focus on growth? - What worked (or didn't work) for you? - If you could go back, would you do it differently? Share your story with us so we can all learn from each other. There's someone here who could benefit from your experience. ----- P.S: If you're a growth-stage founder struggling with churn or stagnant customer acquisition (usually because of poor positioning and messaging), I'd love to help. I specialize in crafting impactful marketing strategies tailored specifically to your product so you can start seeing the results you deserve. Connect with me on LinkedIn today. Can't wait to hear from you!

What do you take into account when you hire talent or choose co-founder?

Yesterday, I asked a question on one of my social media accounts that sparked a great discussion. I'll try to rephrase and tweak it a bit.

My question was:
"Why is it so difficult to get a remote job offered by a U.S. company?"

Can I set the default project sharing permissions to share new projects to my company?

It seems like when I create a new project, it isn't shared to anyone by default. Can I change these default sharing permissions so that new projects are shared to a group (or the entire company?)
I checked in the docs and it doesn't seem like I can, but figured I'd ask in case I'm missing something.

There's something new on PH. Have you had time to try it?

I feel like Product Hunt is getting that Reddit vibe when it comes to Forums.
After waking up, the new "formatting structure" surprised me.
There are 2 main changes:

1) New text editor for New thread

2) New text editor when contributing comments

Best advice for promoting your product (Pre launch) ?

Hey folks! What are your best advices to promote your product during your pre launch period ?

Will getting 500 users in 2030 be as hard as getting a full stack app built in 2010?

I am truly blown away by these AI coding assistants. I have messed around with v0 and now am playing with Lovable. This feels like it should be illegal. I'm essentially coding full stack apps without having any knowledge of programming. Yes, there is a small gap on the deploying front but my guess is this will be solved for quickly.

My main question is where does this trend lead to? I don't believe that everyone will be able to program in a year, but potentially anyone with agency will be able to. I am having a hard time visualizing that, but if true, does that mean the golden goose is going to be on the marketing/distribution side? Will it be 10x harder to get users than it is today? Will getting 500 users in 2030 be as hard as getting a full stack app up in 2010, because every "idea guy" can now build? How will investors evaluate talent? Or big companies? Or am I totally off base here?

What integration is missing from Loops?

Let us know, maybe we can ship quick

How to benefit from the Product Hunt forums?

Yesterday I was thinking about how users of this platform can get the most out of Forums. Here are some ideas: 1 There aren't that many posts in the "Introduce yourself" section, so if you contribute something, there's a better chance of getting noticed by the community. 2 Even if you are an old member of the community, you can "reintroduce" yourself. A lot of people came here, so not everyone may remember you or know about you. At the same time, you can provide help to people in the areas you excel in just mention it in a post. 3 Recent posts allow you to tag people. When you are co-creating a product with someone, tag other collaborators in the "Self-promotion" section. This will automatically notify them as well and they will more likely support the post. 4 Ask questions that can help you improve the product. Conversations are now more moderated and even commented on by PH team members. This way you can get a professional perspective and improve your product or your next launch. 5 You can also take advantage of the Product Forums contribute to "p/Figma", "p/Supabase", "p/Notion" and other popular product forums... You can, for example, break down the most common problems of that particular tool and provide solutions. (Forum Threads appear e.g. in the sidebar for a given product for extra visibility) If you have any other ideas on how to take advantage of this new feature, I would like to see the opportunities from your perspective.
