Hey Product Hunt 👋
It started as a joke: I gave out “Touched Grass” badges to random people on X when they actually went outside 🌱
People loved it, so I turned it into a tiny tool!
You can create and share badges for things like:
- touching grass 🌿
- shipping 🚀
- marketing 📣
- hiking 🥾
or basically any activity you want
Each badge comes with a shareable link with a nice social preview, so it looks great on X, Slack, Discord, or anywhere else.
Have fun!
and go touch some grass 😉

Love it! This makes internet alive and not just one huge AI or corp slop.
@wherelambo It does as long as you generate a badge!

I’m I right in thinking that there’s actually a fair bit of deliberate positivity to put into it?! It’s very mental health positive rather than just a bit of a giggle. It’s smart
@luke_glover you are right! I believe touching grass is something everyone should do as much as possible! So this is my little part of being net positive for the world :)

@builditn0w only because I’m looking to launch an app with a potential mental health benefit to it; did you deliberately undersell that side of your app? You’ve obviously done very well and I’m guessing the tone of the marketing has something to do with that, so did you think that putting too much emphasis on it would do less well? Or is it that you thought playful and less serious was a better route to success? You’ve done a great job whatever thought went into it
@luke_glover Being too serious about it was actually never in my thinking, it all started as a joke when I gave out badges to people on X so I just continued the playful style :)
Depending on how big your app impacts mental health I think it is better to be serious, but maybe you can market some aspects of it in a playful way. Good luck with the launch! :)
Lol, this is so simple but I love it. I feel like there's a lot more that can be done here. Like a "feed of grass" etc. Simple concept but awesome job brining it to life @builditn0w!

P.S. I really wish I could embed my badge (https://www.touched-grass.com/u/ALtiGwc91h)

@gabe Thank you Gabe, appreciate the words :)
There is definitely a lot more I want to add. Embedding is noted and I am working on it!
Today I touched the "Upvote" button at 255 points 😉
