Sadie Perry's profile on Product Hunt

About

I design and build applications that solve real problems for users. My day usually starts with reviewing tasks, writing code, and testing new features. I collaborate closely with designers and product teams to understand requirements clearly before implementing anything. When something breaks, I debug patiently and improve the system so it performs better over time.

What's something you're embarrassed to admit you still do manually even though AI could do it?

I'll go first.

I still reply to every comment manually. Reddit, LinkedIn, Product Hunt, forums, Twitter, Discord. Every single one.

AI could do this. There are tools that generate replies, post on schedule, analyze sentiment, even mimic your brand voice. But I don't use them. Here's why.

A 2024 study on community engagement across 500 brands found that personalized responses drive 3.2x higher retention and 4.7x more repeat interactions than automated replies. People can tell when a response is copy-pasted. They can feel when no one actually read their comment. The average user only needs 2-3 automated interactions before they disengage entirely.

How many calls do you do per day?

As founders, calls are part of our daily life. Brainstorming, quick updates, random discussions with the team and there s always value in those moments. But most of the time, all that value just disappears after the call.
By connecting Prodshort to your calendar, it automatically joins your calls and turns them into ready-to-post content.

If you're a founder and want to create content, I'm doing short discussion calls. Let's connect !!

Had to kill my favorite feature to survive Apple Review 🍎✂️ (Referral System)

Hey Product Hunt family!

Just wanted to share a little "behind the scenes" pain from the OptiClear launch. We all know the Apple App Store review process can be a rollercoaster, and I definitely hit a loop.

I had built this sweet "Invite a Friend" feature. The logic was simple: generate a code, share it with a friend, and both of you earn free premium days. A classic, organic growth loop, right?

Well, Apple hit me with a rejection. Apparently, unlocking premium features outside of their standard In-App Purchase flow (even as a reward) is a big no-no.
