Hey, Product Hunt community! You know that feeling of excitement and overwhelm that comes after launching on Product Hunt? We've been there too, and we're eager to open up a conversation and hear from you. What have been your post-launch experiences? What tips and insights can you share with the community?
At Arhist, we launched on Product Hunt recently and received incredible support from the community. But, we also made some mistakes that we want to share with you, so you can learn from them.
Here's what went wrong:
No Product Hunt hunter. We underestimated the importance of having someone who knows the platform and can help promote our launch.
Late to Twitter. We started our account just 3 weeks before launch. A rookie mistake, we should have started building our social media presence earlier.
No video. We missed the opportunity to showcase our product and engage with the Product Hunt community.
Despite these mistakes, we've been working hard to improve Arhist and deliver more value to our users.
Here's what's new and improved:
Customizable materials, textures, and objects that bring your designs to life.
Improved 3D rendering capabilities for even more realistic and immersive designs.
A user-friendly interface that makes it easy to create ergonomic floorplans and detailed 3D models.
We've also learned a lot about how to navigate the post-launch journey, and we want to share some tips with you:
Engage with the community. Respond to feedback and comments.
Use feedback to improve your product and address any issues.
Focus on delivering value to your users by consistently improving your product and adding new features.
Take care of yourself and your team. Launches can be stressful, so prioritize self-care.
We hope these tips and insights are helpful for anyone navigating the post-launch journey. Learn from our mistakes and keep moving forward!

@anton19 Arhist is an all-in-one solution specifically designed for interior designers. Our user-friendly software makes it easy to create floorplans, 3D renders, and models without spending months learning a new program. While 3D Max and Blender are great options, Arhist is a more efficient choice for interior designers who want to achieve their design goals quickly and easily.
It's great to see a company prioritize user feedback and value. Keep up the good work!

@new_user__2202022a697df1c9c78ce0e Thank you for the compliment! We do have plans for future updates to Arhist. Our team is constantly working to improve our software and add new features to make the design process even easier and more efficient. Some of the features we have in the pipeline include:
Expanded material and texture libraries: We're working on adding even more materials and textures to our library, so you can create even more detailed and realistic designs.
Enhanced collaboration tools: We're developing new tools and features to make it easier to collaborate with others on design projects, whether you're working with colleagues, contractors, or clients.
Augmented reality capabilities: We're exploring ways to integrate augmented reality into our software, so you can visualize your designs in real-world settings and get a better sense of how they'll look in a real space.
These are just a few of the updates and features we have in the works. We're always looking for ways to improve our software and add new functionality, so stay tuned for more exciting updates in the future!
Arhist's features and updates sound incredible! Can you share more details about your rendering capabilities?

@oleg_kelnik Absolutely! At Arhist, we take great pride in our 3D rendering capabilities. Our software is designed to help interior designers create photorealistic 3D renders that accurately depict their design visions. Some of the features that make our rendering capabilities stand out include:
Accurate lighting: Our software takes into account the position and type of light sources in your design to create accurate lighting that makes your renderings look realistic and natural.
Realistic shadows: Our software can generate shadows that accurately reflect the position and intensity of light sources in your design, adding depth and dimensionality to your renderings.
High-quality textures: We offer a wide range of high-quality textures that you can use to add realism and detail to your renderings, including wood, stone, and fabric textures.
User-friendly interface: Our software is designed to be intuitive and user-friendly, so even if you're new to 3D modeling and rendering, you can easily create beautiful, photorealistic renderings.
We're constantly working to improve our rendering capabilities and add new features, so stay tuned for even more exciting updates in the future!
I'd advise you to not stop asking for support even after the launch. The community that you may have built before & during the launch has to be maintained & you have to keep posting updates regularly. Collaborate with influencers to market your product, and keep the community engaged on different platforms. It seems like your product thrives on user feedback & that is your plus point! Keep going at it!
I checked your website & I have a few questions -
1. How is Arhist any different from software like Revit or Sketchup?
2. After creating the 3D model, can I render my designs on Lumion or Sketchup?
3. Is Arhist able to handle large files? I've faced this issue with Lumion & Sketchup a lot while rendering my projects - the software often gets slow.
4. Can I create my own 2D/3D blocks or templates & keep them for future use?

@jagrati_gupta Thank you for your advice! We couldn't agree more about the importance of maintaining our community and staying engaged with our users. We're committed to continuing to improve our product and delivering value to our users. Your support and feedback are greatly appreciated!

@jagrati_gupta
1. Arhist is specifically designed for interior design, so all of its visualization tools are integrated into the software, making it very user-friendly for designers. You won't have to use different software to achieve your desired result.
2. Absolutely! You can render your designs within Arhist and get a predicted final result without having to purchase additional plugins or have any professional knowledge of lighting setup. The local rendering is limitless in the free version, so you can experiment with different styles and options.
3. Arhist's cloud rendering means that all of the rendering processing is done on the cloud and not on your device. This takes the load off of your device and ensures that you can work with large files without slowing down the software. With AI optimization of polygon 3D objects, you can create projects up to 10,000 square meters without any issues.
4. Yes, you can easily save objects and object groups and move them between projects with drag-and-drop functionality. You can also upload your own 3D models and customize their size and texture to fit your project's needs.
And don't forget, with our 14-day free trial, you can test out all of these amazing features for yourself and see how Arhist can take your interior design projects to the next level!
