Which pricing model is working for you?

For years, SaaS pricing revolved around seats.

If you're adding more teammates then pay more.

This was simple, predictable and scalable.

Has anyone here tried custom pet portraits? 🐾

I ve been seeing a lot of people talk about custom pet portraits lately, and I m honestly curious what everyone thinks.

The idea is simple: you upload a photo of your pet, and an artist creates a personalised portrait that captures their personality. Some even go further and put the designs on mugs, blankets, or hats. I thought it was a really sweet way to celebrate a pet, especially as a gift or even as a keepsake after losing one.

I came across a site called Furr and Family

that does these, and now I m tempted to order one for my dog. Before I do I d love to hear from anyone who already has one.

Stop rewriting vendor follow-up emails meet Slashit’s Dynamic Template

Product Idea: What if Your Notes Could Think With You?

The Problem

We consume a ton of knowledge - articles, podcasts, voice notes, random ideas but it's scattered, siloed, and easy to forget. Most tools only store thoughts. What we really want is for ideas to connect, resurface, and spark something new.

The Solution

BrainBank is a living and social knowledge graph. It organizes your notes, voice memos, links, and insights into a visual map of your thinking. When your thoughts overlap with others, it surfaces those connections to inspire new ideas, collaboration, and conversation.

Is there an API that tells me if content is AI generated?

I want to hit an api with some text and get a "likekyhood of ai generated" score. 
does this exist already? I would expect to have to pay which is fine!

Conversion Optimisation Geek launching my first SAAS app

Hey Product Hunters!

I'm a Conversion Geek who loves all things A/B testing and improving website performance.

I've been doing been doing CRO for the past couple of years now and I decided to build an app to scratch my own itch.

How did you get your first 1,000 GitHub Stars?

Launched on Product Hunt last week, @Ultracite, an opinionated code formatting and linting tool, just hit 1,000 stars on GitHub.

The Product Hunt effect?

Vibe-coding does not mean leaving our brains out of the loop

I have been vibe-coding exclusively for about a month now. I am a senior software engineer and I have always been interested in the "no coding" approach to software development. I want software development to be easier, more accessible to everyone. So I switched to vibe-coding daily and writing less code directly or with AI assistance. When I read about other's experience, I feel there is this notion that vibe coding means the computer will think through all the details of the software and deliver an error-free product. This is not true and sets us up for frustration.
Vibe coding can be immensely powerful if we are willing to do some ground research. Start with Claude Code best practices. You do not have to understand all the technical concepts right away; just an overview may help a lot. And many of the points can apply if you are using tools other than Claude Code.

Majority of software for our general use has a UI layer and a data + controller layer. The UI layer is what we typically call "frontend" and the data + controller layer "backend". The UI layer loads in our browsers, desktop or mobile. We can even have native mobile apps for it. The backend layer stays on a computer connected to the Internet that we access from our frontend. We call the Internet connected computer (that serves the data for frontend) a "server". The backend and frontend communicate using an API (application programming interface). When we combine a software with all three parts and the tools needed to put everything in their place, we generally call it "full-stack software".
With these basic terms (frontend, backend, API) we can build simple, usable software much more easily than we may think. We can use OpenAI, Claude, Gemini or any of the top open source LLMs (large language model) to help us break down our software into parts that then can be coded by Claude Code or a similar code generation tool.
There will be obstacles, there will be confusing steps and frustration. That happens when we send our software ideas to developers too. What I want to encourage is to try. Learn about the topics a little, some basics of a software development workflow, how GitHub manages software development, what does DigitalOcean or Amazon Web Services provide, etc. It is OK if we do not get a fully working, bug-free software launched in one go. If we can learn how to use these new tools, so many more people can build the software they need.

📸 Built a small AI app over the weekend to help you track bills & contracts — looking for feedback!

Hey everyone

I m a solo dev based in Germany and I built this app in a weekend to solve a real pain: dealing with bills, contracts, and deadlinesy especially in Germany where paperwork can feel endless.

The idea is simple:

You just take a photo of a contract or billy the AI extracts the due date, amount, and category (like rent, phone, insurance).
