The Genesis: Turn your special date into "living" generative art

Hi Product Hunt! I’m Nitin, the solo maker behind The Genesis. This product is the unexpected result of a personal challenge to become self-sufficient. The Backstory: A few years ago, my first startup (a complex health-tech platform) failed. The hard lesson? I was a non-technical founder entirely dependent on others to build my vision. When it collapsed, I made a promise to myself: I would learn to build my own software so I never had to rely on anyone else again. The Inspiration: The Genesis wasn't originally meant to be a business. It started while watching my 5-year-old daughter paint "nebula" strokes on her birthday. I realized I wanted a way to capture the identity of that specific moment in time, something more permanent, irreplaceable and forever than just a photo. I wrote an algorithm to map the unique math of a date (like a birthday or anniversary) into deterministic, immutable art. Why Launch Now? I built this primarily to test my new product development skills. But when I showed the prototype to close friends, they didn't ask about the stack, they asked if they could buy it for their partners for Valentine's Day. That was the "Aha!" moment: Generative art shouldn't just be for NFT traders or crypto wallets. It should be for human memories. So, just 30 days ago, we decided to turn this into a product. What you’re seeing today: - Deterministic Art: Your date + time stamp creates a unique visual signature that will never change. - Cinematic Unboxing: We focused heavily on the "Reveal Experience" to make it feel like a premium gift, even though it's digital. - Instant Delivery: Solving the "I forgot to buy a gift" panic. The Bigger Picture: This is the first product I’ve built entirely with my own hands since deciding to learn to code. Success here means more than revenue. It’s about proving that with enough resilience, you can build your vision from scratch. I want this launch to be a story my kids can look back. I’d love your feedback: Does the "Digital Unboxing" video feel special enough to replace a physical gift? Let me know what you think! 👇
