I m a commercial videographer who s been geeking out over SaaS and new tech for a while now. I m starting to explore how my background in video might fit into the SaaS world, and I d love to learn from people here who ve actually been through launches.
From what I ve seen so far, two common struggles seem to pop up:
Explaining the product clearly: A lot of SaaS landing pages or demos end up heavy on text but don t actually show how the product works in a way a new user gets it.
I'm looking for tools to help me brief clients and get their answers in voice format. Recently, I found @Yapz It really impressed me. Simple to use, the delightful format of briefing people, only a positive experience. The only downside is that I cannot see the whole call transcript, which is crucial for me. Are there any free/cheap AI alternatives that makes summaries of answers and saves transcripts at the same time?
This evening we have our Demo Night in San Francisco, and our team is stoked to see some amazing products in action later on! If you're in SF - come out and say hi! Here's the event: https://lu.ma/demos
Hi everyone We had some good momentum and amazing customer support during our PH launch. Now I m exploring how to keep that momentum going and actually build a community here (instead of defaulting to Slack or Discord). How do you move beyond just initial discovery and engagement?
Has anyone tried using Product Hunt itself as the community hub for your product? Any tips on how to approach this?
I ve found this community very vibrant and helpful, especially if your ICP is early stage founders and builders. I d love to learn how others have deepened that connection and grown their community right here.
There's a pattern I keep noticing: the AI tools that actually get traction on PH aren't the swiss-army-knife platforms. They're the ones that nail one specific workflow end-to-end.
Been working on a few launches recently and this keeps proving true. What's the most focused AI tool you've come across lately?
I have been in the blockchain/crypto industry for 5 years now. Both as an investor and as a developer. I have launched many products on ETH, Polygon & Cardano network.
This thread though is more about the investor side of things. How are you folks dealing with the volatility of this particular cycle? The uncertainty from the politics and regulations that are coming from US side? Feels like the business market cycle will never play out right?
