@Wispr Flow launched on Product Hunt back in 2024. Since then it has become one of those tools that quietly sticks. It's the AI dictation tool a bunch of us here use day to day (yes, there are still a few people committed to typing everything out). It works anywhere on your Mac or PC, so you can just talk and have clean text land wherever your cursor is.

For the next three days, it is showing up on the leaderboard in a different way. From April 14 to 16, you can upvote and comment on Product Hunt using Wispr Flow directly. If you use dictation, those upvotes and comments will carry a bit more weight. Try it out by clicking the Wispr Flow unit on the Leaderboard and telling it to upvote a product name

There's never been a better time to build. AI tools, smaller teams, faster product cycles.

Last year, @Supabase surveyed over 2,000 startup founders and builders to uncover what's powering modern startups: tech stacks, GTM, and approach to AI. [1]

Many things have changed since then, and they want to know what building at startups looks like in 2026.

I was watching an interview with one of Airbnb s founders recently, and one specific detail really stuck with me.

In the beginning, they didn't try to conquer the travel industry; they barely even tried to conquer a city. They started with about 50 core users in the New York area. They catered to a hyper-specific, tiny niche and built their empire outward from that one small epicenter.

Right now, at NiceJourney, we are working with a client taking the exact opposite approach.

Hey everyone - quick update on DeployHermes (managed hosting for Hermes agents on Fly.io).

Since our last public release (right after we moved the stack to Vercel), we ve been heads-down on reliability and on features people actually asked for. Here s what s new:

We thought we were ready.

Bigger deals. Fewer customers. Better margins. That was the dream.

So we built enterprise features. SSO. Advanced permissions. Audit logs. A whole new pricing tier starting at $2,000/month.

We spent 6 months. Three engineers. One dedicated product manager. Endless meetings about "enterprise readiness."

Today, this graphic caught my attention:

It featured individuals who managed to build significant profit while running their businesses solo, without employees. Until now, I ve seen these more as exceptions rather than the norm.

Formally, I studied marketing, but honestly, that stuff from textbooks didn't help me at all. :D (sounds like wasting 5 years of my life, nwm)

The best marketing things I have learned weren't from courses, but through:
own projects

calls with someone better than me

I'll start.

I believed that "keyword density" mattered. I spent hours making sure our target keyword appeared exactly 3-4 times per 500 words. I used tools that highlighted which words were "under-optimized." I even re-wrote paragraphs to squeeze in one more mention.

Turns out that hasn't been a real ranking factor for over a decade. Google's RankBrain (2015) and BERT (2019) made keyword density obsolete. These models understand context, synonyms, and user intent. They don't need you to say "best CRM for small business" five times. They know that "top CRM for startups" means the same thing.

What actually matters is topic coverage. Does your page answer the question completely? Do you cover related subtopics that a user would expect to see? Do you use natural language that matches how people actually ask questions?

10,000+ people named their @KiloClaw bot and fun fact looking at the data: 4 people named theirs HAL 9000.

TBPN is a daily live show focused on technology, business/startups, and AI.

It has been generating around $30 million annually, so that's why the acquisition is estimated to be ~$100 300M.

The show has already hosted major names like Mark Zuckerberg, Satya Nadella, and Sam Altman.
