Marco Alvarez's profile on Product Hunt

About

My work centers on building and validating software that supports critical flight operations where every detail matters. Working across engineering disciplines has strengthened my ability to solve complex technical challenges while keeping safety and performance at the forefront. Outside of my day-to-day responsibilities, I keep an eye on emerging software tools, AI applications, and products that improve the way engineers collaborate and build. Product Hunt has become a valuable place to discover thoughtful ideas, learn from makers, and follow new technology as it evolves. I appreciate practical solutions, well-crafted products, and conversations that bring together people with different perspectives.

Especially for solo or small-team makers, it feels twice as hard to reach all of these points alone - while continuing to build the product without income and bootstrapping everything.

At some point, it starts to feel like an infinite loop:

Is Product Hunt the right place for smart home-related software products?

I've used Product Hunt in the past to launch my company's AI/XR-related projects, with some success. I'm now building smart home stuff as a side project, and I wonder if people here are interested in that or not? My feeling is that everything here is about AI agent nowadays .

Thoughts? Thanks!

🌙 What did you actually do the day before your launch?

I launch something tomorrow. The page is done, the list is done, and I still keep finding reasons to open it again.
I'm starting to think the last day isn't for work at all, because everything that mattered was decided a week ago.
So what did you actually do the day before yours? Sleep, keep tweaking, write replies in advance? And looking back, did any of it change how the day went?
