I m part of the marketing team at @Lumi.new, and three months ago, my teammate and I total Reddit newbies decided to experiment with Reddit as a growth channel.
What a ride! Yesterday we launched Lumi.new on Product Hunt and just 1 hour later, we were featured.
After 24 hours, Lumi reached:
219 points
304 new followers
Day Rank #5
In the last 10 minutes, we almost thought we d stay at #6 but we pushed forward and made it one step higher. That small win felt huge for us, especially since it was our very first launch on Product Hunt.
What a rollercoaster! As one of the team members behind Lumi.new, I ll admit during the first hour after launch, the upvotes were few and I felt pretty anxious. But to our surprise, Lumi was selected as Product Hunt s Daily Featured right after.
It was such an encouraging reminder that persistence pays off where there s a will, there s a way.
Lumi is an all-in-one no-code platform where you can build and launch websites or lightweight apps simply by chatting.
I m always curious about the projects people here are working on, so I thought I d kick things off by sharing mine.
I m building Lumi.new an AI builder that lets you create custom apps or websites just by chatting. No rigid steps, no templates. You describe what you want, and Lumi spins up the whole thing from UI to database to auth all in one flow.
Curious to see what other young makers, students, and indie hackers are building right now! Always love seeing side projects and early-stage apps come to life
I m Shirley, a marketing manager currently building Lumi.new with some friends. It s a natural-language-to-code playground think AI coding, but with stronger handling of more complex scenarios (though it s not always easy to show that in a quick demo).
A new user came across our project lumi.new our AI-powered vibe coding playground and after trying it out, He topped up $200 almost instantly. He told us they were impressed by how smooth the generation felt and the quality of the first output.
I m a new founder and marketer, building Lumi.new a magic little platform where you just describe what you want, and it generates websites or mini-apps for you. No code, no pain, just clean React + Tailwind + shadcn/ui components.
Here s my dilemma: I ve tried sharing Lumi.new in Reddit subreddits for startups and no-code posting my build in public progress and a bit of self-promo but posts keep getting flagged as ads and deleted
On X and LinkedIn, I post updates too but views are always low.
I m Shirley, and I m excited to share Lumi.new an AI coding assistant that lets you build apps & websites just by chatting. We re launching on September 1st
Why we built it:
Coding should be creative, not repetitive. But too often, we waste hours setting up boilerplate, wiring auth, or tweaking styles. We wanted an assistant that turns your idea into production-ready code fast, simple, and magical.
My name is Elias, and I m the founder of @RankWiser the first SaaS platform built exclusively for WordPress users that lets you track keywords across multiple SEO projects from a single, easy-to-use dashboard. All of this at a much more competitive price compared to other services.
