Most Product Hunt launches finish on two upvotes and no comments. productcant reads the API every day and writes the quiet ones down: a growing Least Attention wall, a Deserved More list ranked by comments-per-upvote, and two weekly ballots. Every number is computed from the pull.

Hi Product Hunt - yes, the name is aimed at you. With love.
I pulled a week of launches through your API and sorted it by upvotes. The median got 2. 88% finished under five. The chart is one spike and a very long flat line.
Product Can't is a public record of the flat line - rebuilt every day, from the same API.
One honest bit: I started this as a mocking site. Then I checked my own "grandiose claims" filter and found it was mostly matching the bare word "AI" - I had been mocking a photo restorer and a baby-cry analyser. So the site gives attention instead of taking it. One weekly ballot still jokes, aimed at claims, never at people.
If your launch is on the wall and you want it off, say so. It comes down, no argument.
And tell me what to fix: what's missing, what reads wrong, what would make you come back next Tuesday? I'll act on every note - half of this site already exists because someone pointed at a flaw.
