About

I'm Sohail, the one person behind beates, launching November 5 in the US, Canada and Pakistan. beates has three originals: themed duets, Halves, and LIVE duets (coming soon). Alongside them: chats and Status+. I can't write a single line of code, so I build with Claude Code and make every decision myself, testing each build on my own phones. beates is not affiliated with or endorsed by Anthropic.

Would you send half a photo and wait for theirs?

Hey Product Hunt I'm Sohail. beates launches here on November 5: chats, Status+ and themed duets, with LIVE duets coming soon.

One part I'd love your honest take on is Halves. In any chat, you send half a photo. Your side stays sealed, and you only see theirs when they add their own half. Then the two close into one picture.

Two questions:

1. Would you answer a Halves, or does waiting for the other side feel like too much?

beates - Duets with anyone, chats, Status+. LIVE duets coming soon

Record your half of a duet, post it open to everyone, and anyone who sees it can record theirs against it. beates puts the two halves together in the duet feed, so you can make a duet with someone in Toronto, Lahore or Texas you have never met. beates is chats with your contacts, Status+ for the whole world, and introducing 3 beates originals: themed duets, Halves, and LIVE duets coming soon. Out today in the US, Canada and Pakistan.
