We're live on PH today — AMA about building CodeWords, the BTS, and what got us here

Hey Product Hunt 👋

Rebecca from CodeWords here, and today we're back with our biggest feature launch yet.

We officially launched last September, and the past few months have been a wild ride of building in public, figuring out what users actually want, and launching our brand new website yesterday... whoo!

So, AMA! (Seriously, anything.)

Some things we're happy to get into:

  • The BTS of today's launch — what went into it, what we prepped, what we're winging in real time

  • How we're approaching marketing — what channels worked, what flopped, and the stuff we'd do differently from day one

  • The September launch story — what we learned from our first PH launch and how we applied it today

  • Building the product — the decisions, the trade-offs, the features that almost didn't make it

  • The team side — how we actually coordinate across product, marketing, and everything in between (as a team of 9)

We're a small team that cares a lot about what we're building. We don't have all the answers, but we'll give you honest ones.

Ask us anything!
