Hey Product Hunt fam

Would love to hear your take on this,

Hi Everyone!

I m Rajesh, founder of Energos.ai a modern, mobile-first CMMS & EAM asset reliability platform designed to bring clarity and control to maintenance and operations.

We built Energos because so many teams still rely on paper checklists, spreadsheets, and scattered tools. It leads to reactive maintenance, higher downtime, and frustrated frontline teams.

Energos.ai simplifies the chaos.

I'm Rajesh the founder of Energos.ai. It is an AI-powered unified data platform designed to revolutionize asset management, predictive maintenance, and sustainability operations. And we're going live on Product Hunt this Thursday - https://www.producthunt.com/prod...

We started off in the EV charging industry (which had its own quirks), but quickly realized that the real opportunity was bigger:

Most businesses running physical infrastructure factories, retail chains, logistics hubs, facilities still manage maintenance using spreadsheets, WhatsApp groups, or clunky legacy tools.

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.

Let's get to know each other, but in a more challenging way Only 3 words to describe yourself.

No more, no less.

I ll go first

Hey Product Hunt! I'm Waseem Daher, co-founder of Pilot, the largest startup-focused accounting company in the US. I'm a 3x founder (my previous ventures were acquired by Oracle and Dropbox) who's raised over $120M from Sequoia, Stripe, Jeff Bezos, and more.

Today we're releasing our 2025 Founder Salary Report with data from 1,800+ founders, and the findings might surprise you:

• Founder salaries dropped 43% in the past year

• AI founders are bucking the trend (paying themselves more)

• Bootstrapped companies jumped 57%

• Only 5.4% of founders pay themselves nothing (down from 9% last year)

We founders talk endlessly about burn rates, runway, and valuations but no one talks about what they pay themselves. It's time to change that.
