We hit #1 Product of the Day — sharing our full 2-week launch journey

Hey everyone!

Yesterday was a wild ride for us. Swytchcode ended up winning #1 Product of the Day on 16th Nov 2025, finishing with exactly 400 votes, something we genuinely didn t expect.
We went in thinking the top product would land around 250 300 votes (on a Sunday) but three products crossed 300, and somehow we climbed all the way to the top.

My hypotheses for FoundersAround failed. What would you do next?

Hey PH

I spent last month testing some assumptions like: founders want to meet others in-person. These assumptions failed as it's not as simple as that. There are some intricacies.

Well, I think will come back to the original asusmption that sort of worked. People liked being on the map, sharing their profile, and getting discovered.

Founders: What’s the biggest headache when applying to investors?

I work at an angel syndicate and see how clunky the fundraising process really is, founders spending hours on intake forms, re-typing bios, hunting down metrics, only to get ghosted.

I d love to hear your experience:

  • What s your current submission process?

  • What s the single most frustrating part?

If you ve got 5 mins, here s a super-short survey too:

How do you think work will change (in the next 2-5 years) due to technological advances?

I don't like using "new normal" after the pandemic But I think asynchronous work will be the new normal very soon!

Currently on a 26-day streak. Share your streak count. 👇

As a community manager, I'll love to create a discord server for active Product Hunt community members to network. Is this something you'd love to be a part of? Comment let me know.
