As leaders, we spend most of our time pouring into others. Our families, our friends, our teams. We invest our time, energy, and presence in being there for others. But somewhere along the way, it becomes easy to overlook an important question
We often see launch posts, milestones, and success stories. What we don t see as much are honest breakdowns of products that quietly stalled or failed.
I feel there s a lot of learning hidden there about timing, assumptions, and trade-offs.
Hi everyone! I m Hansi, founder of You2Mentor. I started this platform to bridge the gap in mentoring. Most people either don t have access to mentors, or the mentoring they get is limited to the organisation or the department they work in.
We re building a platform that helps individuals find mentors and supports organisations in running structured mentoring programs. Users can set goals, track progress, and grow skills in a meaningful way.
I m about to launch my product, ViralSort 2.0, and I m exploring whether to launch with a Product Hunt hunter or do it on my own. I ve launched a few products both with hunters and independently, but I m still not convinced which approach truly drives more visibility, engagement, or traction. Has anyone tried launching with a hunter? Did it make a noticeable difference, or would you recommend submitting independently? I d love to hear your experiences, insights, or even lessons learned from both approaches!
Yesterday, @zaczuo shared an idea about delivering packages from space. To me, that seems quite sci-fi and financially demanding to actually pull off. Today, I m reading that Bezos predicts millions of people could be living in space by 2050.
How realistic is this scenario, given that the last time we set foot on the Moon was more than 50 years ago? (And above all, I feel like we still can t solve basic problems on Earth, let alone expand into space.)
This came to my mind when I read about how the creation of Sora has raised concerns that it could be an AI equivalent of TikTok (critics warning it could fall into the same addictive patterns as other social platforms).
And after several messages with some people, I also noticed how I wasted a lot of time on my desktop instead of doing something productive or learning.
I'll say it bluntly that running a business is not as easy as it is presented on the Internet. You have to come up with a good and useful idea, and even then, you don't win.
You can only see the results after a long time. Not everyone can do it for a long time. To do it, you need to have a strong motive. For some people, it may be a family tradition, for some, money.
We're halfway through the week! I'm sharing 3 new features this week, all about making Prompting better, faster and specific.
Something I heard quite a lot is: "I want my improved prompt to respect specific information or guidance content I add to it". Say that you are applying for a job, or using a post as a template, or adding a URL... You don't just want a better prompt, you want a better prompt that contains this KEY INFO, so that it is accurate for your task.
