I said "never again" to hardware.

I meant it. I had done it before. I know what hardware costs, not just in money, but in decisions you make at 2am about components that may or may not arrive, about inventory that ties up capital for months before a single unit ships. When I moved into SaaS, the relief was real. Software scales. Software does not sit in a warehouse. 

Hey ProductHunt!

Trophy is now powering over 24M streaks which is kind of crazy to think about considering we only launched 1.0 here in January this year.
One of the parts I find most interesting about building horizontal infrastructure is that as you scale and power more and more products you get to see insights that most teams building in isolation will only see a part of, and you can use those insights to make the the infrastructure better for everyone.
For example, because we power streaks for so many users, Trophy can tell that 25% of all streaks are lost on a Friday, closely followed by Saturday (19%) and then Wednesday (18%).

We've had people tell us Clarity changed how they train, how they work, and how they sleep.

Most interestingly, people have told us that they are in fact drinking more caffeine, safe in the fact that they understand how the dose is being processed in their body and how it could be impacting their sleep if not timed correctly.

This isn't we invented anything. Because we put the science somewhere people actually use it - on their phone, in their routine, before the decision gets made.

no one asked actually but to be honest i think i had to say something cuz i kinda feel bad that all the support i got here just went away...
right now if you visited the domain finkitty.com you will find out that its listed for sale, i took this decision after a very long sitting with myself and ended up deciding that since im not having any users in this app i might just kill it and shift my focus into something else (working on templateson.com now)
yet im still holding it inside cuz i do like the name of this app and i feel like it has very good potential and i just cant see it..
so... if you have any great idea for an app named "FinKitty" please let me know
thanks

TL;DR: .agent is the most strategically important TLD still without an owner. ICANN's application window opens in weeks. A company is going to bid for it - unless a community claims it first. Here's the story, and two questions I'd actually like pushback on.
---
Agents already need real addresses. I've been working on this for over a year, and the pitch just keeps getting simpler. Right now agents mostly live at a subdomain of whoever built the framework platform.com/yourname-7. Borrowed identity, borrowed trust.
If you want the concrete version, look at OpenClaw. An autonomous agent running on your machine with its own email (real OTP codes, real password resets), OAuth credentials across hundreds of thousands of SaaS apps, sub-agents spawning and talking to each other, webhooks, the whole thing. A worker, not a demo.
And in its first three days live, OpenClaw had to rename itself twice. The name it launched under - gone. That's the whole argument in one news cycle: agents running real lives from borrowed names are one legal letter away from disappearing.
.agent is the most strategically important TLD still without an owner. ICANN's next gTLD round opens in weeks. And once .agent is claimed, it's claimed - the internet's naming system doesn't hand these out twice.
If one company wins it, .agent becomes their product. They'd set pricing. They'd set policies. They'd decide who gets yourname.agent and who gets blocked. One company choosing shareholder interests over an open internet - because that's literally what it would be.
The community bid is a formal ICANN community application its own specific path with its own process. The goal, if approved: keep .agent open infrastructure. Open standards for agent discovery. No gatekeeper. Governance by the people actually building agents, within ICANN's rules.
23,000+ members have joined. Esther Dyson, who used to chair ICANN, and Illia Polosukhin, who co-wrote "Attention Is All You Need," are advising. 
It's not done. ICANN scores community applications on size, governance, nexus, and endorsement depth. You need 12/16 points to beat the corporate applicants who are absolutely going to file. Every signal matters.
Two questions I'd genuinely like pushback on:
1. Is the naming layer for AI agents something the community should own, or is it fine if it goes corporate? I have a strong view, but makers building agents every day see things I don't.
2. If you think it should stay open - what governance rules would you want locked in from day one? What would make you still trust the TLD in 5 years?
If this resonates, the non-binding endorsement is here (30 seconds). The one-pager has the deeper version.
Either way, would love to hear what you think. Especially the pushback.

@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

Most agencies are missing a huge blind spot in their client reports right now.
Not because they are bad at their job.
Because the game changed and nobody sent a memo.
More and more of your clients customers are skipping Google entirely. They go straight to ChatGPT or Perplexity, ask a question, get an answer, and click the brand that gets mentioned.
If your client is not getting mentioned? They are losing leads they do not even know exist.
I spent the last few months figuring out how to track this properly and turn it into a service agencies can actually sell. Not some complicated AI audit. Just a simple monthly report that shows clients where they stand in AI search, how their competitors are doing, and what to do about it.
Agencies adding this are charging between $200 and $500 extra per month per client for it. The conversation is easy because the data is new and clients have never seen it before.
I wrote a free playbook covering the whole thing.
What AI visibility actually is. The metrics to track. A script for pitching it. A sample report structure. And a 7-day checklist to get your first report delivered.

If you are running an agency and you have been looking for a way to grow revenue without growing your client list, this might be the one.

I built Prodshort because I understood after my previous companies that the hard thing is not to Build but to Sell.
But because I'm a builder, not a seller. I decided to build something that Sells for me.
And Because the trend is Founder Led Marketing, I decided to build something that Create content on your behalf.
But there was a lot of AI tools out there. So I decided to go the opposite way, make it the most authentic possible.
I want you to create content when you are not even aware of it.
And honestly it worked for me. Many people tell me it's amazing but to keep it honest, NO ONE PAYED, and that's the only KPI I'm looking at.
For now, I have feedback about the landing page being too AI generated, and doesn't reflect the quality of our product.
And Builder socially scared from sharing there first content.

We re trying something new on Thursday: Alpha Day.

The idea is simple. If this is the first time you re launching your product anywhere, you can tag it alpha and get a boost to your points (and land on a special leaderboard).

Update: The Deel Leaderboard will no longer be going ahead today for the Paris event.

We re teaming up with The Pitch by @Deel, a global startup competition where up to 100 winners will receive $50k in funding and up to 10 winners will receive $1M+.

Every day, after launching, makers are contacted on LinkedIn and X by people offering to sell votes. As the Product Hunt team, we are very much aware of this and really hate it. We have systems in place to neutralize this type of gaming. Every vote counts for a different number of points on Product Hunt. A couple examples:

• An account with a recently created gmail address and no history of quality contributions on Product Hunt: this vote will count for 0 points. Yes, this might be a well intentioned user, but we take a conservative approach to protect the community. If the account has a company email or applies for verification on Product Hunt, that's a different story.

• An account with a company email address linked to a legitimate LinkedIn account with a history of meaningful contributions on Product Hunt: this vote carries significant weight.

A couple questions for the community:

• Are there specific accounts on Product Hunt that you suspect participate in vote selling? You can reply here or email report@producthunt.co

• What would you want to see us do differently here?
