Starting my Product Hunt hunter journey
I decided to become a hunter to give visibility to builders who can't pay for it.
If you think about it, Product Hunt is a platform where you trade time and feedback for visibility and feedback. And that's huuuuge for people who can't buy visibility but can invest their time.
I was in this case when I built Mailwarm (YC S20). Product Hunt helped us validate and find new customers. We went from $3K MRR to $8K MRR during launch week. That's when I understood how big PH can be for founders with no marketing budget.
Recently I started a builder community focused on Moroccans. I understood that building is not a problem anymore. The bottleneck is go-to-market.
Here is something I built after watching too many founders lose deals to buried emails
Here is something I built after watching too many founders lose deals to buried emails:
www.dailytaskproai.com
It reads your Gmail and Outlook every morning and scores every email 0 to 100 by revenue impact. The most important one is already ranked number 1 before you open anything. Emails above 80 get flagged as Revenue Risk automatically. Your top 5 actions land in a briefing at 7 AM.
The core insight that drove this: your inbox sorts by time received. A 18 lakh client email looks identical to a Swiggy receipt. Same font. Same size. Same position. Your inbox has no idea what matters. It never did.
Hi PH! I'm Andreea, founder of 2 Minutes Responder
Hi Product Hunt. I am Andreea, founder of 2 Minutes Responder. We launched today.
I built this after watching people make offers on UK properties without knowing the flood zone would make it uninsurable, or that the net yield was negative from month one after real costs. The data has always been public. Nobody had put it together before the offer.
2MR does it in 90 seconds. Flood zone, net yield, crime trend, school rating, 5-year growth. Any UK postcode. Free.
Would love to hear from anyone in property or investing. Happy to run any UK postcode publicly right here in the comments if you want to see it in action.
From translator to AI product engineer
My name is Eva and I'm from Czechia. I studied Russian translation at university, that was supposed to be my path. For a few years it was: I worked as a project coordinator at a power engineering company. Then things shifted, my field got affected by what was happening in the world, and I had to rethink my career.
I had been curious about programming for a long time, partly because my boyfriend is a software engineer and watching him work made it feel less abstract. There was a boom of programming courses in Czechia at the time, so I took the chance and started from zero, spending evenings building little card games and trying to make sense of JavaScript.
A few months later, I found a job as a frontend engineer at a digital agency. That first year was hard. I was learning fast, building real products for real clients, and constantly feeling behind. Impostor syndrome was a daily companion. But I kept going. My partner became my mentor, and I owe him a lot of who I am as a developer today.
A year later, I joined Native, an American startup building a B2B AI conversation platform. For a language enthusiast like me, it was a dream. Over three years I grew from frontend engineer to senior product engineer, architecting real-time WebSocket systems, driving activation growth, working closely with design and product. That place taught me how much of engineering is actually about people, trade-offs, and listening.
I'm good at building. Marketing is a different story.
Hey I'm James, a software developer from Australia with 20+ years building things professionally.
Most of my career I've been the person behind the scenes solving hard technical problems, shipping reliable software, making other people's ideas work. Unravl is the first thing I've built entirely for myself, and now I'm figuring out the part they don't teach developers: how to actually get it in front of people who might find it useful.
No funding. No growth team. No playbook. Just me, the product, and a lot of learning in public.
If you've been down this road builder trying to find an audience I'd genuinely love to hear what worked for you. And if Unravl sounds like something you'd use, even better.
