Hi all, Really have only discovered Product Hunt recently. I kept hearing it be mentioned, and now I get what it is for. I think I assumed it was something to do with special offers on groceries! Clearly not. Love to talk with others working on e-com growth products as I've worked in SEO for over a decade and trying to ship my own app this month. I love Tottenham Hotspur, offbeat travel taking the hard route (did the mongol rally last year) and love a Guiness.
I specialise in early-stage consumer brands founders who've built something genuinely good but whose brand doesn't reflect it yet. That gap between product quality and brand perception is what I live in.
Most companies have a solid product. They just suck at communicating it. The truth is, 63% of SaaS users who sign up never reach the point where your product becomes worth keeping. That's not a product problem. It's a communication problem.
I first started by founding a motion design agency from scratch back in 2019, no clients, no network, just figured it out as I went. Built the sales process, ran production, and managed the team. Did that for years. And the thing that kept showing up, no matter the client, was the same problem: the video would get made, get delivered, and then just... sit there. Nothing moved. Churn was the same. That's what Icarus is built around. We work with SaaS teams on onboarding and activation, coordinating launches, feature updates, and customer education content through video.
Marketing is often treated like a support function. Something nice to have. Easy to cut when things get tight.
That thinking is exactly why most businesses struggle to grow.
Marketing is what makes people remember you. It s what builds recall, shapes perception, and quietly plants your brand in a prospect s mind long before they re ready to buy. When that moment comes, they don t discover you they remember you.
About 6 month ago I started MRVL Technologies with one goal: build a portfolio of genuinely useful apps without a team, without VC, and without burning out.
6 months later I have 20+ live apps across iOS and Android everything from a teleprompter for creators (Promptr) to a church management platform (Ekklesia) to an NFC-powered review tool (TapTrust).
Hey, I'm Tahmid Khan, and tomorrow I'm launching a WordPress plugin for my open source form builder: https://www.producthunt.com/prod... My last launch (which was for the underlying open source library) didn't really go so well, so I'm wondering what I can do to improve my chances this time around.
That said, the underlying library has grown to almost 6k registered users now, and the plugin I'm launching tomorrow is also pretty great (in my humble opinion), so any pointers that would help my campaign/launch is greatly appreciated.
I m Weslley Harakawa, a software engineer and founder focused on building AI-driven products that solve real business problems not just demos.
Lately, I ve been working on AI agents that automate sales and customer communication across channels like WhatsApp, helping businesses respond faster, capture leads, and scale without increasing workload.
I m passionate about turning complex tech into simple, usable tools the kind you can set up in minutes and actually rely on.
