Borrow distribution, not Capital

Hey Product Hunt 👋

When I started building ProductClank, I ran into the same wall every bootstrapped founder hits: I couldn't afford to pay creators upfront. Not because the product wasn't ready - but because the model was broken. You know what you pay, you don't know what you get.

I wanted to build something where creators only win when the product actually wins.

But the more I looked at it, the bigger the problem got. There's no shortage of great products, loyal audiences, or operators who know how to drive growth. What's missing is the coordination layer — a structure that aligns incentives so distribution flows toward products people actually believe in, not just products with the biggest ad budget.

That's what ProductClank is. A platform where builders don't borrow capital to grow — they borrow distribution.

We ran Season 0 to stress-test the model — $100K distributed to creators, real campaigns, real results. It worked.

Now we're opening it up.

Season takes it one step further- founders apply, creators and growth scouts vote on who makes the cohort — then run campaigns for the products they backed. Skin in the game before day one. Zero upfront. Everyone earns when it works.

🏗️ Builders — Apply, get voted in, and grow. Bonus: offer fellow cohort members credits or a coupon to try your product — and get access to every other tool in the cohort.

🎙️ Creators — Browse the cohort, vote for what you believe in, promote what you backed — and earn when it grows.

🧭 Growth Scouts — Match your playbook to the right product. Earn when growth lands.
