Hey Product Hunt šŸ‘‹ The problem I kept running into: AI optimized for the average gives you average answers. That's fine for generic tasks. It's actively bad when you're trying to think through something that actually matters — a positioning decision, a creative direction, a strategic bet. The underlying issue is architectural. Every major LLM is trained on the internet, which means they're trained on the consensus of human opinion weighted by traffic and visibility. They synthesize the middle. They return what most people would say. That's the opposite of what you need when the right answer is probably the one that sounds weird at first. Dante Peppermint is built on a different premise. Instead of expanding the corpus, I curated it — original minds chosen for how they think, not how often they appear online. The result is something with a genuine point of view. Something that pushes back, takes positions, and makes you think rather than just completing your prompt. Who it's for: founders working through positioning, creatives who need friction not validation, strategists who are tired of five-option hedged answers, writers who want a collaborator that actually disagrees. What it's not: a task-completer, a writing assistant, a search engine with a personality. It's for the hard questions you can't just Google your way through. Free, no account required — would love honest feedback on whether the experience actually delivers on that promise. → dantepeppermint.com
