I launched solo — and made it to the Top 5 today 🚀

Hey Product Hunt!
This morning I launched my first solo product ever: Controol a minimalist finance app built around one idea:

Know how much you can spend, not just what you already did.

No team. No paid ads. No launch list. Just late nights and building something I personally needed.
I honestly didn t expect much but hours later, it made it to the Top 5 of the day

The feeling? Wild.
Strangers are connecting with the mindset behind it, and it's been amazing to read their comments.

Request for product: voice-based dev environment

Here's my hacked-together, messy, voice-based dev environment:

  1. Voice-driven loop with screen-shotting so the LLM in the loop can see what's in my terminal and editor. The prompt varies depending on what I'm trying to drive with this loop.

  2. A few tool definitions that give read access to files and URLs.

  3. A tool the LLM can send a block of output to that generates keyboard events, so the LLM can drive any editor/terminal.

  4. A separate process watching a directory and constantly making LLM-driven git commits. (git autosave).

I have some pieces of this running most of the time. But I'm lazy, and doing other stuff, and I also try to use a variety of editors and tools, to see what's good lately. Which ... no stability, so my hacked-together stuff is always broken.

I don't want to replace @Windsurf / @Cursor / Claude code. A seriously good agent and expert-system dev toolkit is a lot of work.

Do you prefer uploading files or connecting data sources for analysis?

Powerdrill AI was built to help anyone analyze data in the simplest way just by chatting. You upload a dataset, then ask things like Summarize this for me or Create a table , no coding or Excel skills needed.

Right now, our users upload their data files directly. But in today s world, so much of our data already lives in platforms like Notion, Google Drive, Airtable, etc.

That got us thinking
Should connecting to these tools be a standard feature for any data analysis product?

We d love to hear your thoughts:
Would you rather upload a file manually, or connect the tools you already use?

Build an audience first, or launch and grow later?

This is probably one of the most debated topics in the startup world: Should you build an audience before you launch, or is it better to launch first and grow your audience afterward? I ve seen both approaches work, but each comes with its own set of challenges and rewards. - Building an audience first means you're creating buzz, validating your idea, and nurturing a community of early adopters who are invested in your success. But it takes time, patience, and a lot of effort to keep the momentum going before you even have a product to show. - Launching first lets you hit the ground running, gather real-world feedback, and iterate quickly. But without an existing audience, you might struggle to get those initial users and traction. So, indulge me: Which approach did you take or are you considering taking (those who haven't launched yet)? - Did you build an audience before launching your product, or did you launch and then focus on growth? - What worked (or didn't work) for you? - If you could go back, would you do it differently? Share your story with us so we can all learn from each other. There's someone here who could benefit from your experience. ----- P.S: If you're a growth-stage founder struggling with churn or stagnant customer acquisition (usually because of poor positioning and messaging), I'd love to help. I specialize in crafting impactful marketing strategies tailored specifically to your product so you can start seeing the results you deserve. Connect with me on LinkedIn today.
