Ever had one post get 500 views and another get 5,000, without really knowing why?

I built X Intelligence to help answer that.

Enter any public X account and it analyzes its content to uncover which topics, hooks and formats perform better than usual, the patterns behind its strongest posts, and what could be worth testing next.

After speaking with founders over the past few weeks, I've noticed a common pattern.

Most failed launches weren't caused by poor engineering.

They were caused by building features customers never actually needed.

That's the problem I'm trying to solve with Launch Pilot.

A year or two ago I spent around 6000 euros as a student building my app, ChallengeUp, the normal way. Developers, iteration, a lot of trial and error, a lot of money I did not really have.

Now with AI tools, people are shipping apps like this in days for basically nothing. Sometimes I look at that and wonder if I just paid a very expensive tax for doing it the old way.

I finally launched it and right now I have 0 downloads. Honestly I think a big part of the reason is that AI made building so easy that there are just a hundred similar apps now, and it is hard to stand out when everyone can ship the same idea in a weekend.

But I also wonder if the slow way gave me something those fast builds do not have. More care in the details, more time actually thinking about the problem instead of just shipping fast, a product that feels less generic maybe.

WorkflowOS - turn invoices and contracts into structured data you review and approve.

Why I built it: every tool I tried asked me to set up a template per vendor, or feed it dozens of labelled samples, before it produced anything useful. That trade works if you have 200 recurring suppliers. It does not work if your documents are messy and varied, which is most small teams.

Day 4 of sharing Crowned https://crowned.wtf

Liked the dynamics of outbid.lol, so I built Crowned with utility for founders and creators.

We built Protocall five years ago, used it internally every day since. But when we decided to launch, we knew there were still plenty of things to fix and add. So we had two options:

1. Don't launch and spend another year making it great on our own, going only off internal team and client feedback.

2. Find people who'd actually share their feedback and help us get there much, much faster.

One decision I went back and forth on for a long time: whether to add rewards for testing and feedback, or just ask people nicely.

Since testing a product properly, reporting a bug that's actually reproducible, or writing up an idea that's usable looks like real work. It's literally someone's job internally, our product owner and QA engineers get paid to do exactly this.
Asking strangers to do the same thing for free felt like asking a favor we wouldn't ask of our own team without paying them. So we set up a small pool: $10 to $200 per contribution.

Hi all, we have created a FREE Retro Pong Game and are looking for improvements. Can you suggest features we are missing that should definitely be part of our game?

Someone told me this week they could not understand my project from the page. So instead of guessing I want to test it properly.

Open the link, count five seconds, close the tab. Then tell me two things. What does it do, and who is it for.

"No idea" is a real answer and honestly it is the one I need most. Please do not be polite about it.

It is free, there is nothing to sign up for, I am not pitching you anything. I just want to know if the page explains itself or not.

I built rankedin because too many professionals have years of experience, a large network, and a polished LinkedIn profile, yet still cannot answer a basic question:

What is my next move?

rankedin uses your LinkedIn data to help you understand your professional strengths, gaps, network, peer position, and the practical next step to take.

It is live on Product Hunt today. I would appreciate honest feedback from this community.
