What new features would you like to see in ProductHunt in 2025?

For me:

  1. TikTok-like launch party / AMA livestream

  2. "Where Are They Now?" Tracker of products 3-6-12 months post-launch

  3. Feed of launch stories sharing successes, failures and tips like a substack community/feed

  4. Pre-launch AI scoring + domain-specific expert advisory

  5. Generative launch creatives for social media distribution

  6. "This vs. That" Showdowns head-to-head product debate & polls

  7. Dedicated boards for more content diversity: hardware, non-AI tools, pre-orders, alpha user invitations etc.

  8. Launch-in-public real-time analytics (visitor heatmaps, referrals, engagement - inspired by hunted.space)

  9. Different display views of daily product launches (inspired by PHDeck)

  10. More fun gamification in points system (interactive badges, referral, waitlist pre-launch)

  11. Better search filters (category, reviews, personalized recommendations)

  12. Founder matching hub for advisory and mentorship

What has Product Hunt brought you?

For me, Product Hunt is where I discover the latest, most interesting products and stay on top of what s happening. Beyond that, it s an amazing place to get inspired, and see innovation unfold in real time. Did PH help you get your first users? Did you stumble upon a product that changed your workflow? Have you met someone here who inspired you? Would love to hear your story drop it in the comments!

How Many Subscriptions Do You Have? 😵

Hey, Product Hunt friends! I just realized I have no idea how many subscriptions I ve signed up for! Every month, I see random charges on my card for services I completely forgot about or don t even use anymore. Does anyone else struggle with this?

Leadership and the Power of Communication

I've been following John C. Maxwell for a while, and he's always said that he believes that Everything rises and falls on leadership . But recently, in one of his books, he revealed a new layer to this idea: Leadership rises and falls on Communication. This really made me reflect. And I decided to bring up this discussion here on PH. Most team challenges we blame on bad leadership are often rooted in poor communication leaders not being clear, consistent and courteous in communicating, and or teams failing to speak up as well. What are your thoughts on this? How do you think communication shapes successful teams and projects? I'd love to hear how you approach this in your own leadership journey.

Hunters on PH: Their role, prices and some basics

More and more I see questions about Product Hunt Hunters so I would cover this topic like a small FAQ. 1. Who is PH Hunter? Someone active or well-known on the platform, popular, recognized, and has a high follower count or a significant number of launched products. But even a maker can hunt the product if decides or someone else. 2. What is the Hunter responsible for?

🔥How to tell a good product story?

Do you pay attention to storytelling when promoting products? What kind of stories do you usually tell? Is it about the value of the product? Or about the origin of the product?

Why are there so many people trying to sell me into "Organic Upvotes"?

I have launched three products here on product hunt and each time I launch a product, the number of people reaching out to me selling me upvotes grows. I don't understand existence of such services. Is there no filter of sorts to prevent people from buying their way here? Also I have always seen this as platform to showcase the cool stuff you are building, nowadays its turning more into a rat race for a badge. Let a man get his honest upvotes, Thanks.

TikTok Refugees - Where to next?

With the recent TikTok ban, many US users (#TikTokRefugees) are now flocking to Xiaohongshu (RedNote), a Chinese social media app with no English UI. It has now become the #1 downloaded app in the US. What are your thoughts on this unexpected shift? Is the surge organic, or do you think there's a strategic play behind? And more importantly, where are you and your brand influencers moving to next?
