1000 Day Streak on Product Hunt

Today marks my 1 0 0 0 day streak in on product hunt - wow does time fly

The last 2.7 years have been insane From discovering awesome products (built by SF legends) to actually launching 2 products myself and winning 2x product of the month awards a golden kitty with @Clustr and now being nominated for an orbit award with @Trace feels unreal. Not only did my team go through the ups and downs, but we persevered and survived two top tier accelerators with @500 Startups & @Y Combinator - gotta catch them all

What's the best AI model for coding?

New AI models pop up every week. Some dev tools like @Cursor and @Zed let you choose between different models, some others like @Amp and @Tonkotsu , more opinionated?, default to 1 model.

Curious what the community recommends for coding tasks? Any preferences?

25k Users Later, Pretty Prompt 1.0 Launches on PH Jan 31 ⏰

This community helped turn a scrappy weekend project into something used by 25,000+ people from all around the world. So it felt right to share this here first:

On Jan 31, we are launching Pretty Prompt 1.0 right here on Product Hunt.

Advantages of launching during the week vs. Advantages of launching during the weekend (Explained)

I know this topic has been here a million times (and people will still ask me a few more times after that).

I personally see advantages in both cases, but maybe one more advantage when it comes to launching during the week.

Very briefly:

Can a large Product Hunt community help you with a product launch?

This is something I ll find out in just a short while, one week from now (Jan 28), as I m about to re-launch a digital detox app. If you want, follow, maybe you will be on watch of my steps and activities

However, that s not the main point of this post.

How likely is AGI in the next five years? A look at money vs. science

I came across Deutsche Bank s latest report on AI, and it sparked an interesting thought experiment: how likely is it that we ll see AGI (AI that thinks and learns like a human) within the next five years?

The report highlights a fascinating divergence: the view from money vs. the view from science.

  • Money: the probability inferred from trillions poured into data centers, Nvidia chips, and servers. Investors seem to be betting that AGI is inevitable.

  • Science: the probability inferred from research papers and AI development models. Experts are far more cautious, suggesting the realistic probability is only 20%.

Losing a social account and a community built over years – how do you protect your account?

Yesterday, I had an unpleasant experience. For a few minutes, I lost my LinkedIn community of several thousand people (TL;DR: I was falsely accused of using suspicious software).

Fortunately, I got my account back but it was a strong reminder that we don t own platforms, nor our profiles on them.

Do you still know how to build anything without AI? (Or are we outsourcing our “taste” too?)

I m noticing something weird happening in solo dev land.

We used to compete on:

  • remembering docs

  • knowing frameworks

  • being a better coder

Now it feels like the real edge is:

2026 and your goals. Let's try to set them for Q1.

Since I haven't been able to meet my work goals very well in the last few quarters, I now plan to approach them more systematically and not push myself too hard on work goals, as that ultimately led to problems that made my plan less sustainable.

So here is my structure and list:

🔥 Drop your tagline and I'll try to guess what your product is

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:

The last month of 2025 is here. How are you planning to use it?

Some of you set resolutions for this year, and soon you ll be looking back to see how well you did.

Before that moment comes, what do you want to finish or achieve in this final month?

Building a SaaS is 50% coding, 50% fixing the stuff you broke yesterday 😭

The real founder coding vibe:

  • You ship a small fix break 3 things

  • You deploy confidently production crashes

  • Local works perfectly Vercel says nah

  • You spend 1 hour coding 4 hours debugging

  • Slack notifications hit instant anxiety

Founders know the pain:
You re coding, marketing, fixing bugs, writing docs, and answering customer emails all at the same time.

What s your funniest or most painful founder-coding moment recently?
Let s vibe in the chaos

Poll: Did Anthropic win the AI coding race?

Last week, @Gemini 3. Today, @Claude by Anthropic Opus 4.5.

Embraced by the community on X, did Anthropic win the AI coding race?

Founders: what is your favourite channel for growing your audience?

I m pretty sure most founders grow mainly on Twitter. Or LinkedIn.

But I ve realised it really depends on what kind of product you ve built.

If you re a fashion-focused founder, you probably grew up on Instagram or Pinterest.

The State of Vibe Coding 2025 - Key Takeaways

The @v0 by Vercel team recently dug into industry trends to publish the first State of Vibe Coding report.

My key takeaways:

  1. Everyone can build: 63% of vibe coding users are non-developers, generating UIs (44%), full-stack apps (20%), and personal software (11%).

  2. Adoption is everywhere, with significant adoption rates in APAC (40.7%), Europe (18.1%), North America (13.9%), and LATAM (13.8%).

  3. 92% of US developers use AI coding tools every day

  4. 30% of new code at @Google is generated by AI

  5. 25% of @Y Combinator startups rely on AI-generated code

  6. Rapid expansion has a cost. Vibe coding apps keep hitting vulnerabilities: exposing secrets, access misconfigurations, hardcoded credentials.

  7. The future: going mainstream or hitting its sweet spot in working MVPs, the vibe coding trend is here to stay, and it's happening now.

What's the weirdest thing you've asked AI to do? Examples welcome 🤖

I've recently gotten into training grip strength and since it s a new area of strength training for me, I ve been asking Claude a lot of weird questions about training and recovery techniques. So now, my chat history is a ton of stuff about work with the occasional odd question about how often I should be using extensor bands haha

What are some of the strangest things you've asked AI to help with? Did it actually help?
