Mastra (YC W25) is launching on Product Hunt today, releasing stable 1.0 for building AI apps and agents, and announcing 300,000+ weekly npm downloads, 19,400+ GitHub stars, and production use at companies like @Replit and @WorkOS.

I had a blast working on this launch with @calcsam @smthomas3 @bookercodes and team, and wanted to share with you some thoughts we put into the ops.

Hey everyone!
Just shipped a big update to Time (v1.1.0), and I wanted to share what's new.

You can get the latest version at https://menubartime.com.

Many products start as experiments built at night or on weekends.

At first, there s no pressure just curiosity and momentum.

But at some point, expectations creep in: users, revenue goals, support, roadmap decisions.

Everyone has their favourite routine to perform at their best.

Some are advocates for the Pomodoro technique (25 minutes of intensive work, with a 5-minute short break), others love time-blocking, a few plan the entire week on Sunday, and there are even people who say ice-cold showers la Wim Hof help them focus.

Still feels surreal. 5 years ago I didn't know what a startup was. Two weeks ago, we stood at @Stripe, sharing what we ve built... and the numbers are crazy:

• 10,000+ users in under 3 months (now nearly 18,000)

• 220M+ tokens processed in 90 days (that's ~93k tokens/hour)

• Built in a space most people call just a wrapper . we went all-in on a single problem.

• 179,000 views in 7 days (I guess it s not just us who are geeky about AI tokens )

Here s what we shared at Stripe: milestones, mistakes, learnings, and our honest journey. No here s how you do X , only here s what we ve learned and what worked for us.

Working from home has a ton of traps, like:

• Family members think that just because you re home, you re always available and need to drop everything for them.

• Your workday can stretch across the entire day, and sometimes you don t even know when to stop.

• You start missing real social contact.

• But it also has some huge upsides:

• You save time and money on commuting.

• You can sleep in a little longer.

• You get to schedule your day exactly how it suits you.

TwelveLabs is launching today Marengo 3.0, the most powerful embedding model for video understanding.

I had the opportunity to collaborate with @TwelveLabs on this launch and wanted to share with you some behind-the-scenes on how we prepped it.

We're blown away by the support, engagement, and thoughtful questions from this community. Hitting #1 and getting featured in the PH Daily newsletter to 1M+ subscribers - none of that happens without you.

We've read every comment and wanted to highlight some of the feedback that's shaping our roadmap:

Hey builders & founders! We are back for round 2!

Citable V2 helps founders and growth teams see how their brand actually appears in ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity and tells you exactly what to do next.
Why is AI SEO (GEO) relevant for product builders and entrepreneurs
AI search has shifted from ranking to reasoning. If your product isn t showing up in AI answers, you re invisible to high-intent buyers who are comparing solutions on ChatGPT and other AI agents.

Best for

• Niche, focused products

• Founder-led or lean growth teams with product-led growth strategies

• Teams betting on organic + AI-driven discovery

You can read 100 articles and still forget the words you looked up yesterday.

Why? Because passive exposure doesn't create retention. Active recall does.

Three days ago, I hit "Publish" on Product Hunt for ExtraBar, a menu bar customization tool I'd been building for months.

I honestly didn't know what to expect.

What happened next caught me completely off guard.

Hey builders!
It was amazing collaborating last year and exploring AI tools for work productivity through our launch of the Portals platform. Through that experience, we talked to power users and experimented with the latest technology for AI agents, tool calling, and RAG and vector databases.
Based on those learnings, we've been working hard to build the next rendition of a powerful agent. Many users are looking for solutions to build and manage their technical products and digital businesses, and no-code tools and vibe coding are the biggest trends in the AI scene right now.

Today we're launching Subterranean, an AI no-code platform for building complete apps focused on reliability, design, and a network of built-in systems to make every part of product development capable of being outsourced to agents.
Check out our launch here! https://www.producthunt.com/prod...

What's everyone's sentiment on that? I'd like to introduce a feature where creators can choose to receive payments in crypto.

Just wanted to say a quick thank you to everyone who checked out Cue today.

I launched this morning not expecting much. It's a tool I built over the holidays that turned from a side project into the main project I'm working on. Seeing it hit #3 (so far) is honestly surreal.

This is a recurring topic here and I recently had many related discussions. So, I wanted to share with you three different stories, three different perspectives and approaches for inspiration.

TL,DR: IMHO There's no perfect day to launch. Just launch it.

Dear All,

I am a solo developer behind NotiSprite, and I have been working on it for about 3 months.

Hey Product Hunt

Over the last few hours, a lot more people signed up than I initially expected thank you for the incredible response

Because of that growth, I pushed a quick but important update:

What s New in v0.6.0

• Native macOS Support: A fully optimized, high-performance Mac version that matches our Windows experience.

• Selection Context (Experimental): Move beyond just words. When you select text, Everywhere now captures the surrounding context, drastically improving the accuracy of translations and explanations.

• Integrated Settings: No more digging through menus. Open and tweak your settings directly from the chat window.

• Smarter Tools: Enhanced file encoding detection and optimized web search prompts for more precise answers.

My question is as follows, and I'll ask it right at the beginning:

Do you ask for help with upvoting from the people you're competing with on that day?

The real founder coding vibe:

• You ship a small fix break 3 things

• You deploy confidently production crashes

• Local works perfectly Vercel says nah

• You spend 1 hour coding 4 hours debugging

• Slack notifications hit instant anxiety

Founders know the pain:
You re coding, marketing, fixing bugs, writing docs, and answering customer emails all at the same time.

What s your funniest or most painful founder-coding moment recently?
Let s vibe in the chaos

Big news! DevSecOps, EU-based company @Aikido Security just announced a $60M Series B at a $1B valuation.

@madelinelawren wrote in their blog announcement:

Today, Aikido is used by 100,000+ teams globally, including customers like the Premier League, SoundCloud, Niantic, and Revolut. Over the past year, we grew revenue 5x and more than tripled our customer base. (...)

The next chapter is about self-securing software. Not security as a reactive activity with dashboards and manual weeks long testing. Rather, software that can secure itself on demand.

The day before yesterday, I was looking at the profiles of founders and team members of Lovable, as well as other companies, e.g. Hubspot, and they all look pretty good.

Lately, I ve been getting offers to help grow LinkedIn profiles from several founders, and I m starting to feel like at least LinkedIn is hype.

Over the past month, I've been scrolling through several LinkedIn profiles and noticed how some people have long portfolios of businesses that say:
