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.

This summer, we made a bold decision to launch on Product Hunt. The problem? We had zero idea how to actually do it.

Well, almost zero. Our CTO @mokosiy was a massive Product Hunt fan, and his enthusiasm was our only compass. He armed us with the right stack: Cursor for code, PostHog for analytics, latest .NET and Avalonia to build the gorgeous app.

The Reality Check By August, the "Launching Soon" label we were banking on had vanished. We were flying blind. That's when the real work began. I didn't just read the guidelines; I followed them to the letter. We had to change the date of the Product Hunt launch five times. We realized that we weren't ready.

I have a question for other early stage founders and builders here.

As small teams, we usually do a mix of things for growth. We ship features, post on communities, test small ad budgets, publish few pages, and so on.

A tagline is the first piece of content a user will see about your product on the leaderboard. It's so important that you get it right. You should be able to get a really solid idea of what your product is just by reading a handful of words.

In the spirit of forever optimising our taglines, I wanted to do a little experiment:

Some of you set resolutions for this year, and soon you ll be looking back to see how well you did.

Before that moment comes, what do you want to finish or achieve in this final month?

This started as a simple idea.

I realized most of us have at least one person who made our work easier this year - a teammate, mentor, manager, collaborator, or someone who quietly showed up at the right moment.

So I built a small tool where you type the person s name and a short note, and it generates a clean thank-you banner you can share on LinkedIn or X. There s no login, no signup - it just creates the image.

We're into the last week of November, which is a little nuts to me. It feels like last week we rang in the 2025 new year celebrations. There's been a ton of new products launch this year, unsurprisingly a lot of them with "AI" in their name. What product or products stood out to you the most?

For me it has to be @Wispr Flow, it's completely changed the game on how I interact with my devices, I rarely find myself typing anymore. Even this post was dictated through Wispr Flow.

Everyone's complaining Meta Ads are getting expensive. CPMs are sky high.

But when you dig deeper in data, there could be multiple reasons for cost spike. Maybe a creative fatigued a couple of days back & you're still running with it.

Founders and CMOs, we know you're busy. Between product, customers, team, and 100 other things, digging through Ads Manager often ends up last on the list.

So what s the one thing you know you should be doing, but never have time for?

Hello everyone!
I'm currently focused on SEO and keyword targeting to drive initial traffic for my AI product. It's a slow burn, as anyone who has wrestled with Google knows.
I'm hitting a cold start wall and would love to hear from the community:
What were your most successful and non-obvious cold start strategies for your AI product?
Any advice, especially about communities, early adopter channels, or unique marketing hacks, would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance for sharing your wisdom!

ChatGPT now has 800M+ weekly active users and processes 2.5 billion prompts per day. It's the 6th most visited website globally.

Perplexity, Claude, Gemini - they're all growing fast too.

What I'm curious about: Are any of you actually seeing customers/signups coming from these platforms?

Like, are people asking ChatGPT "what's the best [your category]" and then actually finding their way to your product?

I have been thinking a lot about how AI is quietly transforming the way we work, not replacing jobs entirely, but definitely reshaping them.

At a recent Fortune summit, the CEO of Indeed said AI can now handle over half the tasks in most roles. But no single job can be fully automated. OpenAI s Chief People Officer even called it a reimagination of work.
