    I agree with all the comments above, but one is missing. I recommend that you disable the scheduled automatic launch. Publish your product manually after the first hour (minimum) of product hunt day. Look at other people's launches. Nobody wants to launch their product on the same day as "openAI GPT 5" or "GTA 6" or "new Mac M4" and so on. Let the big fish play themselves.

    Firstly, get excited! You are finally sharing your handwork with the world. Congratulations 😊 Secondly, if you are launching on PH, here are some things that can help you: 1. Focus on the users who comment/upvote for you on PH or land on your platform/social/website. Talk to them, they are invaluable. 2. Prepare launch assets before reaching out to hunters. 3. Find hunters who have launched similar products like yours. 4. Stay super active through the launch day and make sure to respond to all those interacting with you! 5. Build lots of buzz within existing community and social media 6. Keep the teaser page funny and interesting Lastly, enjoy every bit of the launch. It’s indeed an adrenaline rush!

    @geri_mate How would you support someone in the case of a first launch? Does that mean just checking out their app or commenting words to encourage them?

    I'd say focus on user feedback. It's gold.
