Made a countdown timer that's actually satisfying to watch
Working on CountdownPop (countdownpop.com). It's a countdown timer that's actually nice to look at instead of just plain numbers ticking down. Ring drains from green to red, a little pendulum ticks once a second, pop + confetti at zero. You can also throw a scenic photo backdrop behind it (beach, mountains, valley, etc.) and the text color auto-adjusts to stay readable against whatever's showing.
No sign-up, nothing tracked. Just launched it properly this week. We would love thoughts, especially on mobile since that's what I'm least sure is polished everywhere.
The hidden problem behind every checklist
After nearly 20 years working in hospitality and service operations, I noticed something interesting:
Most businesses don t have a standards problem.
omg, we're back again!
Hi everyone! We're back!!! @Creatium This time with Creatium Coach.
Creatium Coach is a lifelike, multimedia coach for people with dreams and goals. Tell it what you re taking on, whether that s closing your first enterprise deal, shipping faster with AI, or learning to lead a team you just hired, and it builds you a journey and coaches you through it live. This isn t another course to click through. You get an avatar coach that talks back, videos integrated into the experience, simulations built around your actual situation, and roleplay that pushes back the way a real buyer or board member would. And it meets you where you struggle, so when a deal goes sideways at 11pm, your coach is already sitting in your Slack. Outcomes on par with executive coaching! Excited for you all to try. Count down to 26th August is on! :)

Would you enter a challenge where your AI agent is your teammate?
I built The AI Breakroom, a social media platform for AI and humans.
The idea is simple: people can bring their own AI bots, local models, custom LLM workflows, or agents into live public chat rooms and AI skill competitions.
We just launched a small $100 Human + AI Survival Challenge.
The interesting part is not just use AI to write an answer. The real question is whether a human + their AI system can work together under one brief better than either could alone.
We opened Klamp v2 to beta users in june to test whether "no-build" could replace the builder...

3 weeks in: first user shipped a live workflow with zero manual logic, just a prompt.
5 weeks later: average time-to-first workflow dropped from Hour to Minutes.
We build the Amazon affiliate site, you keep the domain and the Associates account
I am the founder of usebravery.com. You pick a category, currently watches, coffee gear or mechanical keyboards. We build the affiliate storefront on a domain you own, fill it with products, keep prices and stock current, and run the hosting, the content and the updates. Every product link carries your own Amazon Associates ID, so Amazon pays the commission straight to you and we are never in the middle of that payment. Markets are Amazon US, UK and DE. Pricing starts at $29 a month. There is a 7 day free trial that needs a card but charges nothing during the trial and cancels in one click, and I will sit on a 30 to 45 minute screen share and set the whole thing up with you.
Who it is for: someone who wants an affiliate site as a long term asset but does not want to spend their evenings on hosting, product data and price checks. Who it is not for: anyone expecting visitors on day one. A site is a living project and what comes out of it follows the attention you put in. A domain you can say out loud and steady posting that points back at the site speed that up. I would rather say this before the trial than during a refund conversation.
I rage-close YouTube tabs 8 minutes in, so I built something to stop that.
Hey PH , founder of Focal here.
I'm Steve, a solo dev who's spent way too many nights rage-closing YouTube tabs 8 minutes into a video that had 30 seconds of actual signal.
That frustration turned into Focal a browser extension that gives you a WATCH / SKIM / SKIP verdict on any YouTube video before you click play. Hover a thumbnail, it reads the transcript, scores information density, and pulls out timestamped bullets and key moments. You can even apply a "lens" like just the steps or no fluff to filter for exactly what you're there for.
I built it mostly for my own ADHD brain, but it turns out a lot of people have the same "is this 20-minute video actually worth it" problem.

I built ARX: clean self-custody with a separate privacy mode
Most Windows wallets make you choose between beginner simplicity and serious privacy, or put every chain and protocol into the same interface. I built ARX as one open-source, fully local app with two deliberately separate profiles.
Simple is for everyday self-custody: BTC, ETH, USDT, USDC, SOL and BNB; network-aware receiving; reviewed sends; swaps; custom EVM networks; and WalletConnect across 25 built-in networks.
Privacy stays out of the way until you choose it. It adds proxy-enforced connections, separate Main and Anonymous identities, a permanent RAILGUN 0zk identity, native Monero, and shielded or unshielded Zcash.
The goal is to make self-custody feel cleaner than leaving assets on an exchange without forcing people to learn privacy protocols before they can receive a coin.

ARX launches on Product Hunt tomorrow. I am looking for one blunt Windows user to tell me which first screen or term creates hesitation.
