Product Hunt

The problem it solves

Keeping track of new product launches takes constant checking, and by the time you look, the interesting ones have already scrolled past. Staying on top of it manually just isn't realistic if you have other things to do.

Who it fits

Product people, founders, or marketers who want a quick pulse on new launches without checking manually.

How it works

  1. Every hour, the system checks for the newest product launches
  2. It pulls the top 5 by votes along with name, description, and vote count
  3. The list is formatted into a clean, short message
  4. The message is sent to your team channel
What you get

Launches you spot before anyone else

Stay ahead of the newest product launches the moment they start climbing the charts.

What you get

An hourly message listing the top 5 newest product launches.

What you need

A Product Hunt API token and a team messaging account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
