    How have you been leveraging the platform to grow your user base? Any tips for fellow makers looking to make the most of their launch?

    Customer's feedback on the usability of the previous version of the product inspired me to come out with a disruptive community-led conversational apps building platform

    I wasn't happy with the invoicing tool I was using as there was still a lot of manual intervention needed that is why I decided to develop my own tool and thought others could also benefit from it along with any other ways I could make it better.

    Honestly, I've been launching and responding to comments. This year I'm going to try to be part of the discussion to see if it has a stronger impact on future launches

    I wanted to spread the word of open source and Product Hunt seems like the place. My landing page for my latest product is a github link!

    Great question. In the last few years, I see a lot of opportunities and products launch, but in the same time, a lot of products don't "make it" to the market. I wanted to build a long-term solution for a long-term problem. Being a spreadsheets guru myself (for the last 10 years), I see the same challenges users face while working with Excel and Google sheets. That's why I build Ajelix AI Assistant - to help users find correct formulas and solve 90% of daily challenges in an easy and fun way.

    My passion pushes me to post my apps because most of my apps are public, and ProductHunt is one of the best communities to share these types of products. So I was excited to bring my latest creation to the community and receive valuable feedback.

    We love getting constructive feedback. Our first launch on Product Hunt helped us shape our product to better meet our users' needs.

    We want brutally honest feedback.
    Our journey started when our cofounder struggled a lot with finding his files and other important notes. He tried to fix it by creating bots, that automatically forward any files or information he wants to his telegram saved-messages. This is how Klu - your internal Google- was born! And we are launching Klu soon. If you’re interested, sign up for our waiting list ☺️🎊 https://klu.so

    I developed CowTransfer to address the challenges I faced while transferring files and sharing information with clients globally. Traditional tools were not effective as they were unfamiliar to many clients and lacked the simplicity of tools like WeTransfer. I started using CowTransfer for my own projects and soon discovered that it was not just me who was benefiting from it. By mid-2017, the tool had gained popularity, attracting over 3,000 monthly users, mostly in China. This inspired me to pursue CowTransfer full-time and leave my job. Today, CowTransfer is a leading file transfer and management solution, serving over 3 million users worldwide.

    Our friends at different startups had huge success for brand recognition after launching their products on PH. I've been leveraging the platform to meet wonderful likeminded people here.

    Flamme AI - The Couples App
    This is our founders story: Our Founder and CEO, Ankit Nayal, lived in five different countries, ranging from the far east, in China, to the far west, in the USA. While living in these countries, he noticed that there were plenty of apps to help him find a partner, but nothing substantial to help him improve his relationship. Very few apps existed that added value once the relationship actually began. He realized the lack of value creation and accompanying struggles in his own relationship too. A lot of the struggles could have been avoided if they knew the right questions to ask to discover their relationship better, and found fun things to do together around each others busy schedule. Noticing this, in 2021, he began conceptualizing an app that would be central to easing all "experience decisions" in a relationship - movies, recipes, games, restaurants, bars, events, vacations, etc, and got a team together in 2022. We recently pivoted to also cover communication in relationships, by including a daily discovery question along with other relationship strengthening tools, which include advice articles from relationship experts and a generative AI powered “Ask Me Anything” tool. ​ Our end goal is to make it easier to be in a relationship, rather than make it easier to be out of a relationship (as the current dating apps do, where another relationship is just a swipe away).

    Although there are a lot of SAAS in the market, a lot of issues still cannot be solved by the existing saas! We started to build ILLA to solve that part. Everyone can build out a tool to make life easier without writing complex code!

    I wanted to help as many UX Designers, marketers and researchers as possible, and the community on Product Hunt is fantastic. If my product helps one person, I would be delighted.

    After doing a network packet analysis of my home network, I saw how my family's privacy was being violated by things like my smart TV, smart speakers, various apps, etc as well as how many security threats my home was exposed to. There isn't a simple, trustworthy, affordable solution to protect against privacy and cyber threats that addresses cybersecurity and privacy across every device in the home. So, we decided to build Kavalan to make it easy for even someone who is not tech savvy to be able to enjoy enterprise grade protection across every device.

    I had heard ton of good things about it, but honestly as I am using it more and more, all I see is spam! I have a question for you too, I see you recently launched Decktopus, I am about to launch on PH and wanted to ask people who have already done a launch: How did of these launch numbers actually reflected in customers? I know it depends heavily on the product but did those 207 upvotes for you actually bought 20 signups to your product?
