Newbie to ProductHunt

Martyn Johnson:@calvin_lim_1 Great to meet you too! Tell me about it, some times I miss those good old days, 3 days trying diffent solutions to a problem... endless hours on Stack Overflow and studying docs, apis, waking up in the middle of the night with that eurika moment. I don't think I'd go back though.

I asked AI to Build a Competitor to My Own Product. It Did. Here’s What I Learned.

Kevin:This is a brilliant experiment and I love the honesty in the findings. As someone who's been building products for 10 years (both Mac utilities and now an AI-powered financial podcast app), I've seen this from the other side. I actually use AI heavily in my own product pipeline. What struck me most is your point about the gap between a polished plan and real-world execution. AI is incredibly good at synthesizing existing patterns and producing confident-sounding strategies. But it fundamentally lacks two things: taste from real user feedback loops, and the willingness to make ugly tradeoffs that only come from shipping and iterating. When I built my Mac utility apps, the features that actually drove retention were never the ones that looked impressive on paper. They came from watching real users struggle with specific workflows. AI can generate a perfect feature matrix, but it can't sit in a support thread and feel the frustration behind a bug report. Your moat isn't the features you have today. It's the compounding knowledge you build from every user interaction. That's something no AI-generated competitor can replicate from a prompt.

How do you decide what features should be free and what should be paid?

Michael Beckett:@busmark_w_nika with a human in the loop it shouldn't be the case, but as we can see from AI generated LinkedIn content these days laziness might become an issue

How do you like the new face of Kitty Coin?

Aleksandar Blazhev:I’m on board with the change, but I’m still a bit confused. What’s actually being prioritized - forum activity, being a maker, or being a hunter? How many points does each one get? Is there any kind of monthly or yearly competition? Are there going to be sub-awards like most active forum member, top hunter, top maker? Honestly, the most active people seem to be the ones launching the most, plus those who comment a lot or hunt regularly. There’s not a huge difference. @busmark_w_nika @chrismessina @fmerian All of them - really active. But in the monthly rankings, I keep seeing people I barely notice otherwise. It kinda feels like being a maker earns the most points. Would be great to hear something official from the team though. Maybe @aaronoleary can share a bit more info on this.

Clay is now Mesh

Clay Creighton:Makes sense with Clay CRM blowing up. Sounds like the right move, kudos. Name changes are never easy but probably necessary.

Thank You for Launch Day + What's Coming Next

Halil Han BADEM:Thank you so much @mitchobrian I truly appreciate you taking the time to check out MCPCore and share such thoughtful feedback. Words like these really fuel the motivation, especially right after launch day. And you're absolutely right about the direction. The goal has always been to give developers a single place where they can build, deploy, and manage MCP servers without juggling multiple tools or setups. Once Prompts, Resources, and Apps support land, that picture will be complete. Plenty more to come, and feedback from folks like you truly helps shape what gets built next. Thank you again for the encouragement.

Thank You for Launch Day + What's Coming Next

Michael Palmer:Congrats on the successful launch! 🚀 Really exciting to see the direction MCPCore is heading in. I especially like your approach of keeping this space community-first without turning it into a marketing channel — that builds a lot of trust. The upcoming features sound super promising, particularly Prompts and Resources support. Having everything (Tools, Prompts, Resources, and Apps) in one place could make MCPCore a really powerful platform for developers. Wishing you lots of success and momentum for what’s ahead — good luck with the next steps! Looking forward to seeing how it evolves.

Clay is now Mesh

Harry Zhang:Interesting. Love Clay and believe Clay is one of the most recognized & recognizable brands. UI looks cool but I can name 10 more ai / crypto products with similar design system.
