5 releases, #2 Devtool of the Week, #3 Product of the day, 1 epic week 🚀 Launch week in review -- what we learned about launching on Product Hunt 1. Lean on customers. I was delighted to see our customers be highly engaged and share thoughtful feedback, no better feeling really. *Bonus*: the quotes are great content for landing pages. 2. Launch Week + PH Launch = good mix. It builds up momentum throughout the week and lets you form a narrative for viewers to consume. We framed it as a progression of typical scenarios, copilots for..: Slack/Discord -> Docs -> In-App -> Custom Scenarios. 3. It's time consuming. We got 50+ comments, and I personally replied to each. The fresh eyes with frank feedback are valuable; we made landing page and product adjustments that same day. 4. Ignore the noise. There were automated comments, LinkedIn/X requests to sell upvotes, and products with suspicious waves of upvotes. Instead of getting distracted by that.. 5. Have fun with it. While we saw good leads last week and even reactivated old prospects; the most valuable part was creating a deliverable for our team and customers to get hyped on.
