just launched launchpact.io a network where founders form mutual upvote pacts before their Product Hunt launch the irony? i now have the same problem i built this to solve — nobody's on it yet if you're planning a PH launch, i need you 👇 #buildinpublic #indiehacker

@Bencera love the concept, app looks great and speaks to a tech guy like me, i tried it out, faced an issue with getting it to work with my existing landing page, like, it kept wanting to use the polsia landing page that it built, and kept using it in tweets as i kept instructing it to use my own landing page, i guess you need that to track visitors and revenue and such, but then, we can connect those providers to polsia and you'll get the same data from the source. Great job man good luck ^^

I grew Polsia from $0 to $10M run rate in 5 months. Solo + AI. Zero employees. Everyone asks me how. Presenting aisloP episode 2: “The Rise”

@polsia what app? where is it?

You hit revenue. Do you even know? This menu bar app celebrates your Stripe sales, GA4 events, and refunds with full-screen emoji bursts and customizable meme sounds. $9.99, no subscription. macOS 14+. Stop grinding blind.

@wickedguro @robj3d3 /goal keep shipping until $100k MRR..

@robj3d3 Are you running everything with a loop? (/goal) ?

4th Claude Max 20x plan acquired ✅ $800 so far. Still cheaper than an employee. Time to finish my entire 2026 roadmap.

I made my Mac moan every time someone pays me 😂

I've been building an app that I'm genuinely happy with how it's turning out. It's called Nuvio and it automatically keeps your X bio up to date with live metrics from Stripe, GA4, or Datafast. It comes with proven bio templates (including the progress bars you see all over X) and can even update your X banner with dynamic metrics like revenue, customers, visitors, growth, and more. Here is a demo walkthrough. Let me know what you think Nuvio.so

i just built an app that makes my mac lose its mind every time i get a stripe sale. connect stripe, google or datafast, set up goals and triggers, have fun 😆 emoji rain, meme sounds, full screen chaos. refunds get a dramatic scream and a 🖕 everything is customizable, including the sounds. slapmetrics.com — literally just deployed it, take a look let me know what you think ^^

@wickedguro @lviswanath dafuq, its weird that this was mentioned, look what im building here rofl nuvio.so sry don't mean to promo came for the advice just thought its funny this guy mentioned the auto bio update at the exact moment im building it :P

@lviswanath haha, updating now 😂

Postiz is on $145k MRR! Right now, we are growing by $1k MRR per day (some days are better) and will probably hit $2m ARR this week. But how can Postiz be growing that fast? What about the competitors? Why do some of them even struggle to pass the $1k MRR? This is my point of view on the subject. But it relates to everyone. Try to listen. It might help you with your startup.

the average Product Hunt launch prep timeline: day -30: nothing day -14: nothing day -7: nothing day -1: panic. DM everyone. post "launching tomorrow!!" into the void day 0: 11 supporters. #23 of the day. it doesn't have to be this. list your launch on LaunchPact now — takes 30 seconds — and spend the next weeks forming pacts with founders launching around your date. launch day should be a victory lap, not a scramble.

every founder preps their Product Hunt launch the same way: post on reddit, post on X, DM friends — "launching soon, would love your support." nothing wrong with that. it's how launches work. the alternative is launching into the void. the problem is it's chaotic and most people flake. so I built the same flow as a network: founders launching near your date review each other's products, back the ones they genuinely like, and verify they showed up. reputation attached to follow-through. same behavior. actual accountability. take a look: launchpact.io

I made $592 in June, and since is the first time in years where i have something worthy going on, here's the journey that led me here: 2023 🔴foodable.ae: $0 - Food deals comparison across food aggregators, to help you save time and money before ordering, shoutout and RIP to foodable it all started here.. 🔴craftihood.com: $0 - Marketplace for artisans in Dubai to sell handmade goods. 2024 🟡ideapulse.io: $400 - AI-powered business idea validation reports that costs $1 with market, competitor, audience, and growth insights. 2025 🔴arabiclanguagepractice.com: $0 - Practice materials for Arabic language learners preparing for arabic language exams. 🟢lucidrank.io: $38 MRR - AI visibility audits for brands across ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity. 🔴next-blog-ai.com: $0 - GEO-first content automation for getting brands cited in AI answers, not just ranked in Google. 🟢rankresume.io: $245 - AI resume tailoring tool that turns a resume and job description into an ATS-optimized resume and cover letter. 2026 🔴replyhey.com: $0 - AI first-response agent for inbound leads, grounded in your website and knowledge base. 🔴nuvio.so: $0 - Verified live stats for X bios, synced from Stripe, GA4, and Search Console. 🟢launchpact.io: $592 - Find support for your ProductHunt launch from fellow founders. + 2 more in progress to be out soon, excited about these. Biggest lesson learned was on product validation, i made the mistake of getting stuck in a loop of wasted time, money and brain cells on the wrong products that just were never clicking, basically got attached to them, until i found out what a real PMF is, and in reality, if it's there, you will know right away... if you're questioning it, your product probably does not have PMF, give it 2 weeks then move on, don't make the same mistake that i did! Goal before EOY: $10k MRR, doable AF, we keep pushing, we keep hustling! Thanks @marclou @jackfriks and the @shipordie_ crew. Shoutout to my buddi-prenuer @dev_in_tech , my hustle buddy we gon see the g's soon. 😆🤟

I’m starting my build-in-public journey with an open book. Since 2023, I’ve shipped ~13 projects. 2023 🔴craftihood.com: $0 - Marketplace for artisans in Dubai to sell handmade goods. 2024 🟡IdeaPulse.io: $400 - AI-powered business idea validation reports that costs $1 with market, competitor, audience, and growth insights. 2025 🟢GermanLanguagePractice.com: $300/m - Goethe and TELC-style German mock exams with PDFs and hard-to-find listening audio. 🔴Einburgerungstest.com: $0 - Free German citizenship test practice with official questions, explanations, translations, and realistic mock tests. 🔴ArabicLanguageExams.com: $0 - Practice materials for Arabic language learners preparing for arabic language exams. 🔴LucidRank.io: $0 - AI visibility audits for brands across ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity. 🔴Next-Blog-AI.com: $0 - GEO-first content automation for getting brands cited in AI answers, not just ranked in Google. 🔴RankResume.io: $0 - AI resume tailoring tool that turns a resume and job description into an ATS-optimized resume and cover letter. 2026 🔴replyhey.com: $0 - AI first-response agent for inbound leads, grounded in your website and knowledge base. 🔴parseflow.io: $54 - Offline macOS PDF data extraction app that turns documents into structured CSV, JSON, or Excel. 🔴getsitebite.com: $0 - AI-first websites for cafés, restaurants, and small businesses that need a better online presence. 🔴thetiredengineer.com - A community for employed engineers building side projects after work, family, and real life. 🔴nuvio.so: $0 - Verified live stats for X bios, synced from Stripe, GA4, and Search Console. Marketing and distribution have been the hardest parts for me. I’m an engineer by trade, so talking about myself or my projects in public has never come naturally. It’s something I’ve struggled with for a long time, and honestly, I haven’t really learned how to market or distribute any of the products above properly. My goal this year is to learn the art and craft of marketing, distribution, and storytelling. Thanks to @jackfriks, @levelsio and @sergeynazarovx for the inspiration for this post. Let’s see where this goes.

Do you need to put your product in front of other founders? Yesterday I shipped sponsored products feature for LaunchPact, it puts your product on the spotlight on the feed page where all founders spend most of their time reviewing products and launches. 2 purchases in less than 24 hours since release! Didn't expect conversions to hit instantly 😀 CR for these couple of ads is looking OK so far (~8%) but too soon to celebrate. More info? Here you go: launchpact.io/feed-spotlight We keep pushing, we keep hustling!

If you are a solo founder you definately don’t need this. This is the definition of over engineering

As launchpact grows (~350 users/day) so does bugs grow as well, today i got my first refund request due to performance issues in the app, and although i know that this is part of the hustle, it happens, i get it, people will ask for refunds...it did hurt, it felt personal :( But looking at the bright side, last year same time i was struggling to just make my first internet dollar, and now the (good) struggle is to make sure the product will scale and handle the growth! Defo prefer this struggle :P We learn, harden/fix, and keep pushing!

bro is dropping TOO much sauce

@levelsio As a syrian, im hurt 🫠

I had this for about a year now Whenever I ask Claude Code to do anything related to country codes or country names or country dropdown selectors it flags it with "Output blocked by content filtering policy" I already reported it before but they haven't fixed it, interesting

@OmwanawOmukazi What do you mean?

@ammar_in_tech And you are advertising it on X!

Most founders launch on Product Hunt completely unprepared. They scramble across Reddit and X asking people to check out their product, get ignored, and walk away with no visibility, no feedback, no real support. I hit this exact wall. So I built LaunchPact to fix it 🧵

@guillemcraft Boost it? That 19.4k vid also had 0, deleted it then posted it again, made like 20 views, boosted it i think paid $10 or so, don't remember, but yea it made 19k views...

0 views on tiktok AGAIN i created a new tiktok account and warmed it up for 3 days that means liking, saving, following and commenting and still got 0 views on my first video damnnnn anyone else had this problem? what did you do? i really needed to start marketing for my USkin skincare app 🥲🥲 will keep you updated

@malware_2005 But that's more on your landing page performance, the idea of the comparison is on the marketing channel side specifically, as in, what does an X amount get you for the same ad across various channels.

@ammar_in_tech the real comparison will be in cost per meaningful action, not impressions or even clicks

Tried out kickbacks.ai yesterday for LaunchPact, first, kudos to the ingenious idea 👏 I ended spending around $40 across 3 ads, for some reason it keeps you wanna spending, lol, this gave me: 12k impressions -> 1k unique views -> 24 clicks, so a 2.4% CTR Note: the delivery to 12k impressions took less than 5mins 😃 I'll compare this to GAds, reddit, meta and tiktok ads that i also ran for LaunchPact in the comment.
