Shady guy- claims to be a top hunter but is here only for scamming genuine makers. He takes money to hunt a product with some silly claim of refunding the amount if the product doesn't make it to top 10 on the day of launch, and then will ghost you, keep shifting launch deadlines at his whim, and take no accountability after launch. And of course the money would never come back. Just wanted to beware the community before anyone considers him as a hunter.
This is also a feedback on the product hunt platform, as to how some good communities that start with good intentions, end up being gamed because of their own rules and users become victims.
Most products are designed to win when you can't put them down. We're building Wyser to win when you need it less, which makes "engagement" a genuinely dangerous North Star for us.
For the founders/experts here: how do you measure success when the goal is for the user to outgrow you?
We've quantified everything about ourselves- steps, sleep, screen time, calories. But the one thing people keep trying to squash into a 1 5 mood score is the one thing a number quietly destroys. You can't average a feeling. Wyser started from that failure of the quantified-self era.
What's something you think is fundamentally un-trackable?
