New to PH. I'd love to connect. Share your story and product in this thread
Hi everyone! I m Olga, and I lead the Product team at IsFake.ai. Over the years, I ve built products from scratch, set and tested goals with amazing teams. I love turning big, sometimes messy ideas into something real and making tech simple and useful for people.
At IsFake we are helping everyone spot what s real and what s fake online, with ease and a little fun.
These days it is creepy how easily we can get fooled by deepfakes and fake content. That s why our team is building a universal tool that anyone can use to check if a photo, video, or text is genuine. No complicated steps and freaky interface, just clear answers you can trust.
How new teams can build community around the product on PH?
I ve been a part of PH for 2+ years now, and I really love it, met real friends like @abdalyousef and @michalhajtas, and I really learn from @busmark_w_nika , @abbas143official . My team (Scade) have launched twice, and we've been active supporting other launches, giving feedback, sharing advice in discussion, connecting with other makers, and speaking about our own product. This helped us become visible on the platform, get feedback before launch and be known to the community on launch day. It lead us to a Product of the day, twice, and even a nomination for Kitty awards.
Now, I m helping a new product with PH launch. Guys are new to PH and they genuinely got involved. They filled out their profiles with real names, photos, bios, and links. They started testing products and giving feedback to makers and asking question, reading discussion, and sharing their thoughts.
But no one can see them. They created accounts about two weeks ago, comment by themselves without AI, but their comments seem useless for PH or what? Product Hunt support keeps pointing to the guidelines, but everything in those rules is followed. Comments are flagged as AI-generated, which is unfair (funny cause this is the team of AI detection experts and the product we aim to launch is on AI detection).
Founders building products for neurodivergent users - what have you learned?
Curious to read some insights from developing tech products with ADHD/neurodivergent users in mind. What design decisions made the biggest difference? What assumptions were wrong?
Would your product be better without VC money?
Venture capital can be rocket fuel.
But sometimes it feels more like strapping yourself to a rocket you don t fully control.
If I had never raised a dollar, how would my product look different?
what’s the best way to onboard users?
i'm building Kithbook, an AI-powered knowledge base of everyone you meet online. the first version is ready to use and wondering how to onboard users. appreciate any tips.
How do you approach email marketing when you want to sell products?
According to Neil Patel's data about influencer marketing, newsletter/email is the most effective channel when it comes to ROI (attached infographics; source)
But not so many influencers own newsletters; in most cases, only social media channels.
