I ve been exploring MCP, an open standard from @Anthropic that aims to simplify AI integrations.
In theory, this should make it easier to connect AI with databases, task managers, or even development tools. But I m curious to know how well it actually works in practice.
There's a lot of options for models these days. I've been using Claude 3.7 but I'm curious what's been working well for others. What model are you using and why?
Is the thinking version of @Claude by Anthropic worth the extra credit spend? Does @DeepSeek work well enough to save some credits? Is it worth trying any of the @ChatGPT by OpenAI models?

Okay, so I know everyone's feed has been taken over by the Studio Ghibli but I'm curious what else people have been able to create or seen that's really left an impression. Here are some that I've created! Also on X.

One challenge for Makers launching on Product Hunt is getting in front of the right audience especially for first-time launchers.
I think it would be helpful if Makers could notify followers of similar products about their new launch. Just like how we get updates from people we follow, users who are interested in similar products could receive a friendly notification about a new launch.
Example Notification: "Looks like you're interested in no-code web builders like $Bubble! Check out $SlashPage a game-changing no-code tool where you can create everything from blogs to communities with just a click!"
I recently started building a tool for content creators and startup founders who want to stay consistent on Threads. I ve realized how hard it is to promote something when you re just starting and don't have an audience yet. If you don t have a big following or a budget, what worked for you?
Did you focus on one platform at a time?
Did you document your process?
Did you post daily even if no one was watching?
Curious to hear how others approached early stage promotion. Right now I m experimenting with scheduling, batching, and smart tagging to stay organized while posting on Threads consistently but I want to learn what s working for others too.
I ve seen a lot of people jump straight into building an app without validating the idea first. Some succeed, but many end up realizing too late that there s little demand for their product.
A successful product is often seen as one that is well-commercialized, with users willing to pay for it. But is that always the case?
Today, I came across many products that are incredibly fun and creative. It made me wonder: are there products that don t fit the conventional definition of success? Maybe some exist just to bring joy, even if users simply visit, smile, and leave.
Some might argue that if something brings value, people will naturally be willing to pay. But is that always true?
I see a lot of tech products on Product Hunt that are meant to improve someone else's business situation, and as many makers as possible are ideally targeting the B2B market.
However, this past week I've also seen a lot of "fun" products that not only made it into the featured category but also earned one of the product of the day titles.
Hope you're having a productive start to your week!

Weird domain names are the unsung heroes of the internet. I used to own pollinate dot me. Basically I was drunk and thought a dating app based on people that liked to garden was a good idea
Hi everyone, Gabe here! I lead curating Product Hunt's leaderboard.
First thing I will say is that if I could feature every single product that works, I would. I love supporting makers and demoing products. I actually try to test every single thing that gets hunted every day... which is A TON. But I view our job as to surface the most interesting, novel, useful, and innovative products - daily. Now we may not always get it right, the process isn't perfect, but we're trying to do right by the community.

Notion, Obsidian, and Roam are great, but they re not for everyone. Maybe you found something simpler, faster, or just less overwhelming. What s the one productivity tool you actually stick with the one that makes life easier instead of adding more work?
