We finished #3 on Product Hunt. What should we improve next?
Hey Product Hunt, Parsons here, founder of PodcastorAI.
A few days ago, we launched PodcastorAI and finished as the #3 Product of the Day. We’ve received more than 300 upvotes and 100 comments so far, and I’m incredibly grateful to everyone who tried the product, asked questions, or shared feedback.
PodcastorAI helps creators turn scripts, links, PDFs, ideas, or existing audio into solo or two-host video podcasts with AI hosts, digital twins, natural voices, captions, and editing tools.
The launch gave us strong validation, but it also showed us where we still need to improve. We’re currently reviewing the onboarding experience, first-episode workflow, host realism, voice quality, and editing controls.
I’d especially love to hear from anyone who tried PodcastorAI:
What part of the workflow felt unclear?
What stopped you from finishing your first episode?
What feature or improvement would make you use it again?
Honest criticism is very welcome. We want to build the next version based on what creators actually need, not just what we assume they need.
Thank you again for helping us reach #3. We’re only getting started.

@parsons_wu_real Congrats on the launch , One thing I'd'prioritise is making the first episode feel almost effortless. If users can create something they're proud of in the first few minutes, they're much more likely to stick around.
Finishing #3 is a solid result, but I like that you're focusing on what comes next instead of stopping at the launch. That's usually where the real progress happens.
Have you listed you product on any review plat form yet?
Congrats on #3 Out of all the feedback you received, what was the one issue that surprised you the most but now sits at the top of your roadmap?
One thing I'd love to see is an even faster first episode flow. Getting from an idea to a finished draft in just a few clicks would make it much easier to try.
After reading 100+ comments, did any feature request completely change your original product vision? Those moments are usually the most interesting.
If a creator had only five minutes to evaluate PodcastorAI, what single feature would you want them to try first? curious what you consider your strongest "wow" moment.
Do you think the product is closer to solving content creation or reducing creator anxiety? Feels like both are important, but I'm curious which problem you think you're actually winning.
