Rants - Anonymous voice threads. Start a topic, let the world speak.

Hey Product Hunt! I built Rants because I noticed something broken about how we communicate online. Every text post feels performative. We edit, delete, rewrite. We optimize for likes. Somewhere along the way, we stopped saying what we actually think. But voice is different. You can hear when someone means it. The hesitation before a hard truth. The laugh that slips out. The passion when they care. Text strips all of that away. The problem I'm trying to solve: Anonymity gets a bad rap, but it's actually what enables honesty. The best feedback I've ever received came from people who didn't have to worry about offending me. The most interesting conversations happen when people aren't managing their personal brand. I wanted to create a space for that — where the focus is on what's being said, not who's saying it. How Rants works: You create a topic, share the link, and anyone can drop an anonymous voice note. No sign-up required to participate. We have voice filters (chipmunk, deep voice, robot) for people who want an extra layer of anonymity or just want to have fun with it. You can reply to voice notes to create threaded conversations. And you can export any note as a shareable video clip. How my approach evolved: Honestly, I over-engineered the first version. Profiles, followers, likes, the whole social network playbook. It felt cluttered and missed the point. So I stripped it down to the core: voice, anonymity, conversation. Nothing else. The constraint forced clarity, and I think the product is better for it. I'm excited to see what people use this for. Anonymous Q&As, honest product feedback, community venting sessions, voice-based AMAs, I've already seen some creative uses in early testing. Would love to hear your thoughts. What would you start a Rant about?
