shahista Tazeen

My name is Shahista, I have been a dedicated homemaker and a proud mom of two wonderful kids. For years, my focus was on nurturing and supporting my family, which kept me fully engaged and away from pursuing my own career goals. Now that my children are growing up and gaining more independence, I feel it s the perfect time for me to explore my own path. I am excited to start a new chapter focused on building and creating something meaningful.

With some help from high-school going son (who is proving to be better coder than me ), and guidance from my husband, I now have an MVP ready for Windows. The app runs fully offline and comes bundled with AI models to transcribe and generate note from meetings, podcasts, talks, etc.

My name is Bathilde (pronounced Batild or Batilda) and I'm an iOS developer working on my personal app called BreathInU.

After a few years working for different companies, from early-stage startup to scale-up, this is my time to experiment. Until this project, my skills were only related to development and project management, and it is very exciting to discover the business, marketing and design side of apps.

As a new product in closed beta, we did surprisingly well in our debut on Product Hunt. I ve already written about our full launch-day tactics (see previous forum post), but some founders reached out asking:

What specifically worked for Product Hunt?

Here are the 5 biggest things I will repeat as we plan a future open beta launch. I hope it helps you too!
