Hi Product Hunt community! My name s Tikue, co-founder of Kudos, and I m so excited to announce that we re LIVE on Product Hunt! After spending several years helping build Google Pay and Affirm, my co-founder and I came to the realization that card issuers make credit cards unnecessarily complicated. So over the past year, we brought on a team many from Google Pay and PayPal Honey, and built Kudos. Our mission is to make every purchase as delightful as possible by streamlining the checkout process and taking the guesswork out of credit card rewards and benefits. Kudos is a free shopping extension that helps you pick the best card at checkout on over 2 million sites and doubles your credit card rewards across 15,000 partners. As this is our first time launching on the platform, your support means the world to us! Let us know what you think and drop us a comment below. Link: https://www.producthunt.com/post...
I'll start with one I've often debated: "urgency". As in, fake countdown timers, or saying "you have 1 spot left" when there are infinite spots available.
The annoying part is that they work. Conversion rates go up by a few percentage points. So saying no isn't some clever long-game arbitrage where I secretly win in the end. It's just leaving money on the table because it makes me feel gross.
A bit about my experience: Apart from a few pivots, I have worked with food for around 7 years, I have left the food industry to work at Product Hunt but it still has a massive place in my heart. Within my experience, I trained as a cook (Italian), a bread baker and during my Italian training I also was a pizzaiolo Currently I'm teaching myself Indian cuisine, which is probably the most exciting thing for me right now. I also cook at the Product Hunt off sites for the team Ask me anything you want about cooking, the industry, technique, the culture within a kitchen, anything really!
I am Tara Reed: CEO of Apps Without Code // Forbes 30 Under 30 // TEDx Speaker // NoCode Queen Being a pioneer in No Code app development inspired me to launch Apps Without Code; the very first No Code University where I teach others how to use technology to bring their app ideas to life without the need of expensive developers or coding knowledge. To date, Apps Without Code has helped over 85,000 entrepreneurs, in 14 different countries, make money from apps that they built without code. I'll be answering questions this Wednesday
Been thinking a lot about how fast original content disappears. It seems news footage, eyewitness video, documentary clips and other original video gets buried under noise within a week. Something goes viral on Monday and by Friday the original is gone, replaced by reposts, edited versions, and debates on what actually happened until it's just... not findable anymore.
Curious if anyone has tackled this problem, what approach you took, and what you think about the tension between platform distribution (reach) and platform dependency (your content disappearing under noise). Specifically interested in eyewitness footage, journalism, and documentary work but any category where permanence matters.
