Product Hunt is home to amazing products across every category.

Today, we wanted to look at AI creative tools from a slightly different angle not just features, but the real-world marketing activity behind them.

Product Hunt is best known for its homepage, a daily leaderboard of the most creative and innovative products on the internet. Makers go all out to win launch day, because that visibility matters. Product Hunt also plays a significant role in how products appear in Google search results.

What surprised us was that AI assistants like ChatGPT were rarely citing Product Hunt in product recommendations.

Things in AI move so fast, it s almost absurd. Blink, and there s a new wave of tools redefining everything.

And somehow, since the start of 2025, we ve already seen:

Gaze into your crystal ball and share what you think is going to happen with AI in 2025! Will this be the year of the vibecoder? Is there an industry that you think will be transformed by AI? Whether you're predicting revolutionary breakthroughs or subtle shifts, drop your predictions in the comments!

On their livestream today, OpenAI just released a bunch of new tools for reliably building and using AI agents. From what I can tell, this is what's new-

New APIs:

• Responses API - a new multi-modal API that builds on chat completions to allow for the next-generation of tool calling, starting with the new tools announced today.

Hi all! I m working on an idea that came out of my own frustration:

There are SO many AI tools right now for writing, meetings, code, design, finance but it s getting overwhelming.

Even though I m deep in the AI world, I still find myself Googling things like: Best AI tools for solo founders ; Free AI video editing apps ; Is this tool even legit?

So here s the vision:

Hey, I've been building Doppler, the search console for AI platforms like ChatGPT and Perplexity.

As the title says if you post your product I'll run it through my tool and give you an analysis of how it performs on both ChatGPT & Perplexity as well as some tips to improve your visibility from AI engines so you can get more traffic from it!

AI search is particularly efficient for B2B SMBs / B2C as AI apps will give tailored product recommendations based on the user's context, that's why it's worth optimizing for.

Me First

ChatGPT & Cursor

I am attempting to observe what you use for coding. I have come across many tools on Product Hunt + Web, but I am fairly certain I have missed quite a bit.
I divided them into "traditional" and "specialised".

Traditional AI models:

DeepSeek

With so many AI tools popping up every week, I m curious:

Which ones have actually stuck around in your workflow?

• Are you using anything for image/video generation?

• Got an underrated writing or code assistant?

• Something that helps automate tedious stuff?

Would love to hear what s been useful (or surprising)!
