Today we launched Zentrik Product Loops because as our own workflow got 10x faster, it became easy to lose the reason behind the work.
A sales call became a summary. The summary became a backlog item. The item became an agent prompt. By delivery, the customer reason was hard to inspect, and what would count as proof was even harder.
I did not expect this platform to do what it has done for me the last two weeks.
I have spent hours commenting on other people's launches here, mostly because I like thinking through other people's problems, not because I expected anything back. A few of you took the time to actually argue with me, update your product off something I said, or just answer honestly instead of leaving a one line thank you. That kind of attention from someone who owes you nothing is rare, and some days it has meant more to me than I expected a forum comment to mean.
For the last few months I've been building MarginFlow solo, no team, no funding.
The problem: every agency owner knows this pattern. A client emails "hey can you also just add X" sounds small, feels rude to push back on, so you just do it. One email. Then five. Then your 40-hour project quietly became 65 hours and nobody billed for the extra 25. By the time you notice, the project's wrapped and it's too late to invoice for it.
What MarginFlow does:
- Connects to Gmail (read-only it never sends anything on your behalf)
Retic is a goal and habit tracker built around one idea: your goals, habits and daily tasks live in a single tree, so completing a habit today rolls straight up into the goal it belongs to. No separate habit-streak app and separate goal-planning app that never talk to each other.
A while back I posted here about counting the sources behind a handful of AI answers. I kept going, and I now have 241 software categories measured.
For each category I asked ChatGPT and Gemini the six questions a buyer actually types (best X, best free X, most affordable X, best for small teams, what should I use, recommendations), gave each one a live web search, and logged every product named and every source behind the answer. That is 1,446 answers and 5,037 product mentions.
Three things stood out:
1. Reddit was a source behind the answers in 93% of categories. Capterra, the review directory a lot of us pay for, in 12%. The assistants lean on forums and independent roundups, not the review grid.
I ve developed a freemium AI Agent plugin for WordPress built for leads, booking, and WooCommerce automation. It uses powerful APIs like Groq, OpenAI, and Gemini "one of those" to chat with customers in natural language, collect contact info, book appointments, and seamlessly sync everything with WooCommerce stores.
We officially go live on Product Hunt in exactly 9 hours!
As we count down, I would love to get your expert advice: what are the most effective strategies to market a plugin like this to WordPress and e-commerce store owners?
Building desktop software today often seems synonymous with giving away all your RAM to Chromium. With PowerFolder, I refused to follow that trend from the get-go. I never even considered Electron. Instead, I bet entirely on Rust + Tauri v2 right from the start. The performance leap is massive, and the technical reason behind it is super simple:
1 No Chromium & Node bloat: Instead of bundling an entire browser per app, Tauri relies on the OS's native WebView (Windows/macOS/Linux). The final binary is tiny, and idle RAM consumption is ridiculously low.
2 Rust Backend: While the frontend remains web-based, all the heavy lifting, file system access, and core logic run on Rust. You get Rust's memory safety with C/C++ level speeds, without a bloated runtime sitting in the middle.
Hey all, I'm launching Opal Emu here on Saturday and wanted to open things up before that.
Short version: it's a retro game emulator that runs 100% client-side in your browser. Drag a ROM in, it auto-detects the console and starts playing. No install, no account, nothing uploaded anywhere. 18 systems supported (NES through PS1, Saturn, PSP, and more).
Having tried almost everything in the E commerce space, my friend and I realised that the biggest problem with the space is that almost everyone on Tiktok/Instagram is just trying to sell you a course or just show off their lifestyle. It's impossible to know who's actually helping you and who just wants to sell you something.
I got tired of constantly struggling with copy-paste and cramped text boxes when working with complex prompts, so I decided to build my own PromptEditor designed to make writing and editing prompts much easier. One of the most valuable features I added is placeholder detection. It saves a huge amount of time when working with reusable prompts by automatically identifying and organizing variables. The sidebar has become an essential part of my workflow. It s always open in my browser not just for editing prompts, but also as a flexible note-taking panel where I can capture ideas for future prompts and instantly send them to any AI chat with a single click. https://sites.google.com/view/pr...
