We've been analyzing demo funnels across B2B SaaS companies, and the pattern is consistent: the "Book a demo" button creates a 5 9 day gap between peak buyer intent and first product contact.
By the time the call happens, half the excitement is gone. No-show rates climb. Reps spend the first 15 minutes on basics the prospect would've preferred to explore alone. The fix isn't a better calendar tool. It's removing the wait entirely.
We built Naoma to replace that gap with an instant AI demo live, conversational, running in the browser 24/7. The prospect gets a real product walkthrough the moment they click. We route qualified leads straight to sales.
In early pilots, we're seeing 6 20% visitor-to-demo conversion, which for most inbound funnels is a meaningful jump from the default.
In 2025, we witnessed a true Product Hunt (r)evolution so many things changed dramatically. I honestly think this was the most intense year of changes the platform has ever had.
For example, we got to experience all of this:
Verifying profiles (badges)
Alternative product suggestions on launch pages
Views and online count on forum posts
Adding/Removing the ambassador program
Forums instead of Discussions
Changing the UX/UI of launch pages
Removing Coming soon (Notify me pages)
Adding/Removing downvotes on comments
Forum comments now showing up on our profiles
More extensive footer
Redesign of the main page UI (e.g., new notification icon)
Everyone has their favourite routine to perform at their best.
Some are advocates for the Pomodoro technique (25 minutes of intensive work, with a 5-minute short break), others love time-blocking, a few plan the entire week on Sunday, and there are even people who say ice-cold showers la Wim Hof help them focus.
Many of you sometimes write to me in DMs asking how to position yourself on Product Hunt.
From the question, I always get the feeling that people want to speed up the process, publish something quickly, get a high position in the ranking of launched products and a badge. But this is a long-term game.
Why do you need this? For when creativity is required. So you can stop and think for yourself, instead of taking a generic and ready-made answers from ChatGPT/etc.
It helps you learn to think independently instead of handing everything over to AI. Yes, it's harder and takes longer. But the result will be better because the outcome is yours - you come up with the idea yourself. AI hasn't reached the level where it can think for us yet. But it's great at push us - and that's what Ideation does.
I noticed this question in one of my discussions and thought it would make sense to share my approach if I were to get in touch with more active users of this platform.
Here s how I would find them and connect with them (via X, LinkedIn or other channel) You can find them :
Check people who log in daily (Streaks).
Look at users who actively comment under discussions and launches.
Connect with active hunters.
You can try reaching out to the internal Product Hunt team.
Explore WA, Telegram, and Signal PH groups where people are active and reach out to them.
Check users who launch a few days before you they re likely to put effort into the platform too, so they still have that "launching vibe".
