Hey there, Gurkaran Singh! From my experience delving into various tech realms, including edtech, supply chain, accounting, and government sectors, I've found that the choice between a free launch and a paid featured launch on Product Hunt can be a tough one. Opting for a free launch can help you gauge initial interest in your product without any upfront costs. It allows you to test the waters and gather feedback from the community. On the flip side, a paid featured launch provides greater visibility, potentially reaching a larger audience and increasing your chances of garnering more upvotes and engagement. Ultimately, the decision boils down to your goals, budget, and confidence in your product. If you're looking to validate your idea and build early traction, a free launch might be the way to go. However, if you're ready to make a splash and accelerate your growth, a paid featured launch could be worth considering. Remember, both paths have their merits, so choose wisely and don't forget to enjoy the ride!
