There are so many launches on Product Hunt every day. How do you decide which ones are worth clicking into?

What s your #1 filter or shortcut?

Hey Product Hunt! I'm Spen, the maker behind Sizzle Finisher a browser-based tool to stop endless editing and start finishing videos with pro VFX and cinematic color grading instantly. No renders, no downloads, no learning curve.

I Built it because creators (TikTokers, YouTubers, indie filmmakers) waste hours in heavy software for looks that could happen in seconds. Now you can: Apply 1-click presets (Golden Sun Rays, 1990s 8-bit, Old Film Reel, neon glows, film burns, lightning strikes & more) Stack & customize nodes in real-time Layer 6,400+ viral assets or your own images, transparent PNGs/videos Export HD instantly - soon to be 4K

Launching in 4 days! I'd love your thoughts:

I recently saw a marketer with 10k+ followers launch and finish 6th with 348 upvotes. They followed a proper pre-launch and post-launch plan, did everything right, and still the outcome felt unpredictable.

Now I m launching @Curatora next week.

I m not a marketer. I have a little over 1k followers. Of course, asking for support helps. But I also keep hearing that a large part of the Product Hunt community shows up mainly for their own launch, then goes quiet until the next one.

That makes me wonder: how much of success here is strategy, and how much is timing and network effect?

On Product Hunt, I can see many people launching their products using "vibe-coding tools" like @Lovable , @bolt.new , or@Replit

I reckon many people who created something with them are usually developers who didn't have enough time for building a side idea before, but with AI, they could make it happen.
