Hello Product Hunt! We are thinking of spinning up topic specific, weekly digest newsletters that break up the firehose of goodness that is the Product Hunt leaderboard. What topics would you subscribe to? Who would you like to see sponsor these newsletters?

Here is an early prototype of what an AI Agent Digest newsletter might look like: https://gist.github.com/kerzhner...

tldr: yes. Shoutouts are one of the simplest distribution levers on Product Hunt.

Shoutouts are meant to pay it forward and highlight the tools that helped you build. But beyond goodwill, they create durable distribution for your product on Product Hunt and across LLM driven discovery.

When you shout out a product during launch, it becomes a founder review on that product s page. Founder reviews sit above regular reviews and include a link to both your profile and your product. That means your product is now attached to every future visit to that product s review page, long after launch day. For example, check out @timliao s shoutout of @Framer or @guymanzur s shoutout of @Base44

It's simple. Drop your next big idea and get some brutally honest but hopefully valuable feedback. The rules are:

• Drop your idea, you don't have to go super in depth but give a sentence or two about what it is and does.

• Get roasted, duh

• Roast someone else's.

That way we create a cycle of feedback

Sometimes I wish I had a clear answer to this question, but... I don't :D

A lot of people ask me in DMs what to do and when the best time to start.

We just wrapped the Orbit Awards for AI Dictation and now we re moving to the next category: AI Automation.

This one is for the tools that actually do work for you clearing chores, running workflows in the background, or quietly taking over a chunk of your week without turning into another dashboard you have to babysit.

Product Hunt is best known for its homepage, a daily leaderboard of the most creative and innovative products on the internet. Makers go all out to win launch day, because that visibility matters. Product Hunt also plays a significant role in how products appear in Google search results.

What surprised us was that AI assistants like ChatGPT were rarely citing Product Hunt in product recommendations.

If you made it to the Pitch by Deel Paris finals, you ve got a special Product Hunt launch day waiting for you.

We ve partnered with Deel to give finalists a dedicated chance to launch, get discovered, and show the community what they ve built.

If that s you, submit your launch by Sunday at midnight PST and make sure to add the tag pitch-paris.

I ve been here for almost three years, and over time, I ve started to see this platform as a social network.

I know that many people come to launch their products and, due to time constraints, do not have time to establish a strong presence here, but I m glad some regular users focus on building the community.

Product Hunt is the place to discover your next favorite thing, now with badges, descriptions, reviews, and a bunch more.

I spend most of my time on these two things:
1) observing products on the main page and upvoting/commenting on them

2) talking with people within comments under my forums

The second one is the one where I notice some things that I lack and see possible improvements, namely:
