... Adam, an AI engineer, builder, and lifelong tinkerer. For the past several years, I ve been building AI, machine learning, and automation systems across real business workflows, including RAG systems, AI-assisted operations, document processing, workflow automation, and full-stack AI products. There s also a product idea I ve been thinking about for years. For a long time, the technology simply wasn t good enough to make it work the way I imagined. With the recent progress in LLMs ... ... operations copilot that connects to the tools a company already uses and handles repetitive workflows across them , while keeping humans involved when decisions matter. I joined Product Hunt because I d love to meet other engineers, founders, and AI tinkerers

Now it stops; --force if you mean it. tinker shows its errors instead of printing nothing, and never runs an exception message as code again.

... setups and dropped the idea of finding the perfect app. Now I just use two core tools, a lightweight scratchpad for instant thoughts and a standard project board for serious tasks. Keeping the stack small stopped me from constantly tinkering with system preferences every weekend. Reducing expectations rom a single tool made my daily routine much easier to maintain. What low-maintenance setup have you actually stuck with for more than six months without tweaking ...

... real path for a genuinely consumer friendly self-hosting product, something as easy to own as a router, to actually go mainstream? Or does the setup and maintenance overhead mean this stays a niche for people who enjoy tinkering, no matter how good the software gets? Comment from Noah Anderson(@noahanderson): Have you considered recommending a managed local that auto updates and repairs itself. That compromise might bring normal users onboard faster really soon ...

... love learning and discussing everything tech whether it's the latest LLM developments, practical tips for cracking coding interviews, startup stories that inspire, or just geeking out over interesting product recommendations. When I'm not studying, I'm usually tinkering with model training pipelines or exploring new libraries. Happy to connect with fellow students, professionals, or anyone who shares the curiosity. Let's learn and grow together ...

... Nicolas from France Old lurker new maker here. SWE with 13 years of professional experience, and many more tinkering with electronics and computers before that. Happy to meet and learn from y'all folks. I am sure I'll have some questions / roasts asking / questions about rules for my product :) Actually first question. I will do two apps: one free on the app store and a paid companion app. Is it acceptable to do two PH launches? Happy making ...

... everyone! I m Harisha P C, founder at Rish AI Labs. I ve been tinkering in the software and AI space for a while, particularly focused on solving real-world supply chain and inventory forecasting challenges. Currently, I'm working on predictive demand modeling to help local businesses manage micro-trend inventory spikes. When I m not diving into data architectures, I m usually exploring new dev tools and automated workflows. I joined Product Hunt to connect with other builders ...

... everyone I am a SWE who love to tinker with hardware (I destroy half the things I touch, that's a separate topic). I've been browsing Product Hunt recently, and one thing I noticed is that a huge chunk of the products I come across are AI related. Don't get me wrong. AI is cool, and there s obviously a ton of interesting engineering happening around it. But personally, I d love to see more real engineering here ...

... lose anyone with a short attention span (myself included). So I decided to build a site for my own lessons on embedded C, Python, microcontrollers, etc. I threw together a barebones website (with a lot of AI help), tinkered for a month, got bored, and scrapped the whole thing. Then one evening playing a board game, it clicked: reuse the template, but gamify the courses into a storyline. I found others doing this as well, that was reassuring ...

... everyone! I am a Software Engineer by profession and curiosity! I like to tinker things over weekends and while travelling across countries! I have built products in the personal finance space and screen productivity space looking to launch soon on PH. I am new to the community and PH and would love to start by contributing! Hit me up with what you are building, I would to try it out, give feedback and buy it if works ...

A bell that fires on every pause becomes noise fast; one that only fires on real blocks needs to actually understand what the agent is doing. That's basically why I ended ... ... context back before you even switch to the pane.

If you're a solo founder, an AI builder or you just enjoy tinkering with early-stage products. I'd love to connect. Thanks for having me here ...

... getting real productivity out of AI agents today still basically requires you to love building and maintaining them, and most people don't have the time. Toyo is our attempt to make those gains accessible without having to love tinkering with computers. To celebrate launching, we're offering everyone a month free with code  PRODUCTHUNT at checkout. https://www.producthunt.com/prod... We're around all day and would genuinely love your feedback, questions, and feature/integration requests. Comment from Johnson Gill ...

... scroll through it like a feed. Same muscle memory as scrolling Reels, except every card is helping you retain something real. Why it's more than "just flashcards with extra steps": The app quietly tracks what you actually know vs. what you're shaky on (via a simple swipe "I know this" / "still learning"), and resurfaces the weaker stuff back into your scroll at the right intervals so revision happens passively, blended into the same scrolling habit you already have ... ... entire roadmap.

... everyone, I'm so glad I found this site, seeing everyone else's ideas, and courage to launch is inspiring. I have been a web developer for over 30 years, and throughout the years I have kept tinkering with various projects throughout the years. Mostly I develop websites I need that aren't out there; the few I have kept around have been about board games (one of them even has a handful of monthly users, but I never actually ...

... switch is actually less painful than it sounds. No team governance headache, no justifying a flat seat cost when you're shipping slowly. You only pay when you're productive. The harder question is whether to stay in the VS Code + Copilot orbit at all. I've been spending more time in Claude Code directly, and the context-window approach it takes feels more useful than inline autocomplete for the kind of feature-building work that actually moves a project ... ... forward. Curious how others are weighting the "inline suggestion" tools vs

... experiment for my startup, @Pretty Prompt : Remove the monthly tier; offer only Free or Yearly (basically no monthly plan available). We decided to do this after doing some simple maths and seeing that 42% of users today choose annual vs our monthly plan. So what if I can take out the monthly option entirely? Has anyone here done something similar or has experience with this? I think a big part of PMF is also a different type ... ... Pricing Market Fit). Does removing monthly pricing hurt conversion or actually make pricing clearer and push more users toward longer commitment?

Outside software, I m usually tinkering with SciFi, computing, electronics, 3D printing, or the occasional poorly soldered project. Looking forward to meeting other builders and discovering interesting things here ...

... cheaper than using, for instance, EC2. Speaking specifically of SSL certs updates, I don't think that this is a real issue in 2026 with letsencrypt and its toolkit. I'm probably old-school, but I love tinkering and having fun with servers. Comment from Wasil Abdal(@wasil_abdal): @francis_osih  Fair points. But AI tools still assume you know what you're doing. For most makers? Managed hosting = ship faster. Self-hosting = ship a server. Different goals. Both ... ... control is the product requirement.
