Hunters on PH: Their role, prices and some basics
More and more I see questions about Product Hunt Hunters so I would cover this topic like a small FAQ. 1. Who is PH Hunter? Someone active or well-known on the platform, popular, recognized, and has a high follower count or a significant number of launched products. But even a maker can hunt the product if decides or someone else. 2. What is the Hunter responsible for?
How do you keep track of Competitors without losing focus?
I'm working on Draftly (dot) so, a tool to help people and businesses grow on LinkedIn. Recently, I had an experience that made me think. I wan on a call with a potential customer, and during the call they asked how we compared to another tool. I had never heard of it. Turns out, this competitor launched a few months ago and was getting attention in the same space. I tried to learn about them on the spot while on the call, but it didn't go well. The customer didn't sign up, and I realized I need to do a better job of staying updated on new tools in my space. As a small team, it's hard to keep up. We're busy building and improving Draftly, so tracking every new competitor feels impossible. Just curious:
- How do you find out about new competitors early?
- Do you track their features and updates regularly? If yes, how?
- Are there tools, platforms, communities that help you stay on top of things? Would love to hear how others manage this.
What’s your biggest challenge in managing data and workflows?
I ve been searching for a smarter way to manage and interact with my data across tools, and automate a few workflows. I have used Zapier, Make, BoostSpace, etc. in the past and they are great! However, I recently also discovered Needle when their founder reached out to me seeking feedback for their product. What I was impressed with was their API and ability to build context-aware agents. I also hunted Needle on PH today! I would love to understand what solutions you use to currently manage data and workflows across your tools? Please share in the comments as I am learning more about this space.
Instagram has announced a new app called Edits following the ban of CapCut in the US.
After TikTok and CapCut was banned in the US over the weekend, Meta announced it's new video editing app as an alternative to CapCut. The TikTok is now partially restored crediting Trump with restoring service. As a result of President Trump s efforts, TikTok is back in the U.S.! the message reads on the app. It's still missing from the app store. What do you think will happen next? Share your thoughts in the comments. :)
