Hey Product Hunt 👋 I’m Brian, one half of the two-person team behind FRiNGE. When you search “What’s Los Angeles like today?” every platform gives you something different. Google Maps shows you where things are. Instagram shows you the best-looking version. Reddit shows you what someone said months or years ago. AI gives you a summary, but you still don’t know if it’s accurate. None of them show you what’s actually happening right now. That’s why we built FRiNGE. Every vibe is a one-take video recorded at the location and uploaded directly. No editing. No filters. No AI-generated content. Our only feature is delete. If it’s windy, you see the wind. If the beach is empty, you see that. If the surf is firing, you see it. Real vibes only. As AI-generated video gets cheaper and easier to make, we believe real content from real people will become even more valuable. FRiNGE is now live on iOS and the web. We have 283 signed-up users, more than 6,400 vibes captured, and paying subscribers. We’re a two-person team using AI to move quickly and build something that normally would have required a much larger team. Try it here → https://fringe.travel/ I’d love your honest feedback. I’ll be here answering questions throughout the day.

Checked out a beach spot before heading out and the one-take clip actually showed the wind picking up and a small crowd, which saved me a wasted trip. Really like that there's no filter nonsense.

the no-AI, one-take rule is such a smart constraint for travel content. you actually trust what you're seeing instead of wondering which filter warped the colors.

Launching FRiNGE today. Real creators. Real moments you can trust.

A year ago I was on a trip I had planned twice because the reality did not match the marketing the first time. That afternoon I sketched what became FRiNGE on a napkin. Today we launch on Product Hunt.

FRiNGE is a two sided platform. Real creators get paid directly by fans who subscribe to them. Every vibe is one take, uploaded raw. No editing, no filters, no AI, ever. Fans get pure authentic content. Creators get paid to just show up.

Would love the room's honest first impressions. Live in the launch thread all day.

AI video costs dropped 87 percent in the last year.

Serious question for anyone building or using content platforms.

Google Veo has pushed the cost of AI-generated video down to around $4 per minute. That makes fake travel footage, restaurant walkthroughs, and event previews incredibly cheap to produce.

Platforms like Instagram, Google Maps, Reddit, and TripAdvisor will likely see more synthetic content that looks real. Some of it will be harmless. Some of it will be intentionally misleading.

Do you think platforms can solve this with moderation and labels, or does authenticity need to be built into how content is captured?
