Downloaded and tested. Love it, with feedback below. But first, some context…. I use PH for two primary reasons: As a consumer: I use PH to find the latest awesome products that might make my life more productive/fun/profitable/whatever. It’s the best place on the web to discover new tools. As a VC: I use PH to find apps and startups that might meet our investment thesis. The PH community is great and the feedback is unlike anywhere else. Onto the feedback: As a consumer, Hunt X is useful because if I missed a cool product from yesterday, last week or month, etc., I can simply organize by upvotes or comments and see what I’ve missed. There is no easy way to do this natively on PH (that I know of). As a VC, Hunt X is much more powerful for me. I like how I can sort by upvotes/comments to see what is receiving a lot of positive (or negative) feedback. What I would like to see from Hunt X is the following: Faster: Dudes, it loads way too slow right now. Almost to the point of unusable. More Tabs: Can you add tabs for custom dates, like All Time. Keyword Search: This is where you can shine. Let me search by product name, description, username, and/or comments. Weighted Search: Not all comments/upvotes are created equal. Would be cool to filter search by which products get the most feedback from people that are active on the website often. UI/UX: I don’t need Hunt X to look like PH for it to be effective. If reformatting the data made the app run faster, I would embrace that change. ps - if you tapped into the AngelList and Crunchbase APIs, this could be an extremely powerful tool. Happy to chat more if you continue development.

@benhoffman_ Thanks for the great feedback :) Your primary concern that Hunt X is slow, because to get last 30 days Hunts, we are making 30 service calls. @andreasklinger can help us on this :( @andreasklinger can you suggest how we can make the experience better, by getting hunts between time range?
