Remote retreat 🏖
We had to cancel our regular team offsite for Product Hunt this year, so we’ve been looking for fun ideas for a remote retreat. Since the social part of our retreats are the best bit, boring apps have no place here. 🙅
Here’s a preview of some quirky remote apps and games we're exploring:
• Brightful Meeting Games introduces icebreaking games to “super serious” business meetings
• Buzzfeed Quiz Party to test the team's knowledge on important things like, “Which Nicholas Cage character are you?’” and “What’s your British name?”
• MerryMint brings IRL activities online. Hire a magician for a magic lesson, invite a chef to teach how to make the perfect pancake, or get a mixologist to spice up your Friday happy hours
• Goat 2 Meeting sends an invite to a real goat or llama to join your video call (photo above)
• Moonshot is a virtual escape room. Join your team on an important space mission where you must escape. You can play this one with up to 100 people
We’re looking forward to a highly productive year following this retreat. 😆

Are you really still typing?
Full disclosure: Wispr Flow is the AI dictation tool most of us at Product Hunt (use we still have a few holdout typers, what romantics). Hold a key, talk, and clean text drops straight into whatever app you're already in — Slack, email, Notion, your IDE, wherever your cursor lives. No switching windows. No copy-paste ritual. Just say the thing – yes, you can whisper it – and even your most run-on sentences will be turned into polished writing at 4x the speed of typing.
