p/generalIf you ever marketed a desktop plugin, which activities helped you with visibility and purchases?
Jinji Huang:I would start narrower than “marketing a Chrome extension.” The most useful thing is usually to pick one painful workflow and make all the early content about that workflow, not about the tool. For example: “I review 50 LinkedIn profiles a week and need a faster way to save good examples.” - “I comment on prospects’ posts and need a way to keep context.” - “I collect screenshots/posts/leads and lose them after a few days.” Then the marketing becomes much easier: one workflow page, one short demo, one comparison article, a few real before/after examples, and comments in places where people already complain about that exact problem. I would not spend too much time on broad directories early. They give a backlink, but usually not much learning. Real examples from early users are more useful because they become landing page copy, SEO pages, demos, and social posts at the same time.

p/generalHow do you prefer to consume content, and how has your focus changed over time?
Jinji Huang:@busmark_w_nika Exactly. For me, the issue is less “ebook vs paper” and more “what kind of device is holding the content.” If it is on a phone or tablet, my brain still treats it like a work/notification machine. That is why paper works better for deep reading. It creates a clear boundary: no tabs, no messages, no quick checking. Boring in the best way.

Sangwon Lee:@gabriel_brooks1 Exactly, those little details really matter when you're creating something to share. Sounds like you know your stuff 👍

Sangwon Lee:@evan_sterling Thanks! I actually debated adding a full cat body with moving legs… but yeah, that might’ve been a bit too much 😄

Sangwon Lee:@elliot_grant1 Exactly, we can’t stop human hands from being a bit jittery, but the tool can definitely help smooth things out 🙂

p/generalHow do you distinguish AI content from real, human-made content?
Samir Asadov:In highly technical domains the tell isn't stylistic — it's whether the content demonstrates live knowledge that can't be reconstructed from training data. I write about project finance and M&A modeling. An AI answer in my domain gets the framework right — DSCR, debt sculpting, cash waterfall — because that's in the training data. What it can't do is tell you that a specific lender will require 18 months of DSRA for a merchant wind project but accept 6 months for a fully contracted solar plant, or why the P90 exceedance ratio that matters for debt sizing is the 10-year figure, not the 1-year. Those calibrations come from sitting in credit committee rooms, not from reading about them. So my practical test for technical content: does the author commit to a specific number, a named counterparty, or a decision that would be wrong in the wrong context? Generic advice is always safe and always AI-compatible. The thing that can get you fired if you apply it to the wrong deal — that's the signal. On images and video: agree with Saad that effort is the better frame than AI vs. not-AI. The tells are more about whether the visual is doing real work — showing something specific, dated, and contextually accurate — or just looking the part.

Brandon Estrella:I’ll be around all day responding here 👋 If anyone wants to try it, I’m happy to: extend your trial or set things up with you live Also curious - would you trust AI to actually create production deep links, or would you want approval steps?

p/introduce-yourselfHey Product Hunters 👋
Casey Gaskins:@rianbrob Thank you so much! I’m Casey, the daughter half of the mother-daughter duo building Traction. 😊 We really appreciate you checking it out. We’re building it because we kept seeing local businesses struggle with scattered content, missed follow-ups, and no clear path from visibility to actual booked revenue. The Sponge sounds really useful too... flashcards from webpages is a smart angle, especially with the browser extension. I’ll take a look and follow you as well. Good luck with your launch!
