From the makers at Bad Unicorn, we bring you Slow! Everyone in the world is optimizing for Fast but when it comes to impulse buys, it’s best to optimize for Slow. Ask “Do I really need this?“ with the Chrome Extension that adds a little friction to your checkout process.

@whit_anderson @modernafflatus @alexlpethick Thank you for the continued support and brilliant feedback Alex! What Whit said - the Bad Unicorn community has (surprisingly?) a LOT of bad ideas to work with. It keeps us both on our toes, but never fully knowing what to launch next 😀

@pierre_tillement1 Thanks Pierre! We've been building like mad men but it's all been a fun process. There is a Chrome Extension 👀 super light weight as of now but will definitely make some improvements!

@pierre_tillement1 Thank you! Was looking all over NoCodeClub for some Chrome Extension tips 😂 No-Code definitely needs this kind of a builder as this is just an early beta but we learned a lot working with Danny in the process 🙂

Hey Product Hunt! Excited to be back again, this time to add a bit of fun to your Monday. Whit and I are big fans of the team at Fast but their product had us thinking - what if we *didn't* want to buy stuff so fast? Could there be a way to slow down impulse buys and purchases we don't end up using - before they happen? Over at Bad Unicorn every other week Whit and I launch bad ideas as products and wanted to introduce Slow - the world's slowest checkout! It had a great response from our readers which is why we are sharing with you on Product Hunt today. We took some of that feedback and created the beta version of the Chrome Extension (the first step of your Slow journey). Just choose the sites you want to go Slow on and you'll get a pop-up on the basket page causing you to pause the checkout process, potentially saving you hundreds, maybe thousands, of dollars each year! Shout out to Sharath for hunting us, Mirela for the website template, Cyrus for the Slow.com domain and Danny for developing our first Chrome Extension! Thank you for stopping by the site and testing the beta of the (very lightweight) Chrome Extension today! Would love to hear your feedback and the features you'd like to see in the future.

Hi Product Hunters 👋, I'm Whit, an indie maker, a product lover and a huge Product Hunt fan ❤️. Thank you for checking out Slow. The idea 💡 for Slow came from scrolling Twitter and my entire feed was all Fast.co - First off, badass company. Second, @modernafflatus knew we had to parody this product. It started as a funny bad idea product but morphed into something that might have some value to certain uses. See for yourself. The Chrome Extension we built is super light weight and we look forward to adding to the product! We'd love feedback or feature requests if you have them below. @modernafflatus & I build this for BadUnicorn.vc which is a product newsletter that drops funny(sometimes bad) products every other week! Subscibe at BadUnicorn.vc for more! I have to thank @5harath the most! He is an incredible maker and we are so grateful that he is hunting us today. I can't thank you enough Sharath. 🙏 Thank you for checking out Slow and I hope I can add value to the community in a positive way. I'd love to know your thoughts and feedback on Slow. I am so grateful you all took the time the check out our project. ❤️🙏
