Hey Product Hunters

We're back. And this time, with a much sharper focus.

When we first launched @Curatora , it was a content discovery and publishing tool. Over time, one thing became very clear from user conversations.

Publishing was not the hard part.
Finding strong, timely content ideas was.

I posted a random thread on X about the cost of living in the Netherlands. Nothing about what we're building. Just genuine thoughts about life in the Netherlands.

It hit 1M+ impressions. And here's the weird part we got a ton of signups and paid users for Starnus from it. Without ever mentioning the product.

Meanwhile, my "here's what Starnus does" posts? Way less engagement.

This genuinely messed with my head. I'm sharing the actual X post below

Hey everyone!

I wanted to take a moment to thank each and every one of you for the incredible support during our launch week. Seeing VolumeHub climb the rankings and reading all your thoughtful comments has been absolutely amazing. The fact that 200+ people upvoted and believed in this project means the world to me!

If you use AI dev tools daily, you ve probably felt this:

You start a new session and immediately have to re-explain:

• what the project is

• what you already tried

• why certain decisions exist

• what not to repeat

Not because the AI is bad.
Because the workflow forgets.

First of all, I want to thank you for voting for us in yesterday's launch - you still can, the week is not over. HERE

Second thing, I summarised some things that I realised, reflected on, and maybe should have known sooner:

New AI models pop up every week. Some developer tools like @Cursor, @Zed, and @Kilo Code let you choose between different models, while more opinionated products like @Amp and @Tonkotsu default to 1 model.

Curious what the community recommends for coding tasks? Any preferences?

We re officially in nominees season for the Orbit Awards: AI Workflow Automation.

Since I haven't been able to meet my work goals very well in the last few quarters, I now plan to approach them more systematically and not push myself too hard on work goals, as that ultimately led to problems that made my plan less sustainable.

So here is my structure and list:
