What current activities in your business are not replaced by AI yet.

I think that the most affected by AI were:

creating content (text, photos, now video)

creating the code
simplifying the process via AI agents (e.g. agenda)

🏆 And the winner is… Unicorns Club! We won the Golden Kitty Award! AMA!

I still can t believe this is real. 6 people No venture capital A crazy idea we refused to give up on And now Product Hunt just put us in the same league as billion-dollar startups. This is surreal. A dream. That moment of HOLY SH*T, did we actually do this? Unicorns Club a tiny team of just six people, backed by a single angel investor, no VC money just won a Golden Kitty Award. And not just any award, but the one that placed us alongside OpenAI, Google, Figma, Mercury, Notion, and other giants. A year ago, this was just an idea. No big budgets, no seasoned startup team. Just a handful of people who believed the startup world needed a better way to connect founders and investors. To everyone who voted, supported, signed up, and believed in Unicorns YOU are the reason we made it. Ask me anything!

Early traction, but blocked by payments and funding. What would you do?

Hey PH fam I launched Lumoar (B2B SaaS startup) three weeks ago and we have already seen over 100 users sign up and lots of positive feedback. It s clear there is a demand and I feel there s potential in this. But now I have hit a wall. Because of my country, international payment platforms like Stripe or PayPal don t provide API access so I can t monetize or implement a paid plan right now. I ve talked to some investors, but they expect initial capital or revenue before they d consider funding. Bootstrapping got me this far, but moving forward without monetization or investment is getting really difficult. If you ve dealt with something like this (or just have thoughts), I d love to hear: What would you do in this situation? Any creative approaches, funding workarounds, or even alternative payment methods I should look into? Appreciate any advice

the tools i actually understand are the ones i used, not the ones i read about

ive been thinking about the gap between knowing a tool exists and actually being able to use it, and how differently those two things happen for me.

reading about a tool gives me the pitch. the feature list, the happy path, the demo where everything works on the first try. i can describe the tool after that. i still cant use it.

I built a tool that shows you a house's hidden permit history before you buy : PermitPeek

A month ago I launched PermitPeek here, and the reaction taught me something I didn't expect, so I wanted to share it with this community.

What it does: PermitPeek pulls the full building-permit history for any home across 34 US cities, straight from official city records. Every renovation, addition, and the important part: every permit that expired or got left open. It flags what a buyer should pause over, in plain English, instead of a raw government portal.

The thing that surprised me: I built it for buyers vetting a house. But after launch, people kept running it on the home they already own and finding real problems. One person found a roof permit that was never closed out, which finally explained an insurance headache from the year before. Another found open permits their contractor left hanging after a kitchen reno. Stuff sitting on their record that they had no idea about.

Why it matters: home inspectors check the condition of a house, not its paperwork. So unpermitted or unfinished work stays invisible until it bites a failed sale, a forced tear-out, a five-figure bill to legalize after the fact.

How do you approach demos for your product?

As users, we all want to try a product before committing. As builders, we want to show real value without over-engineering and investing time 'just for show'. Finding that balance is harder than it looks.

I just shipped my demo for Rewo (https://rewo.app), and intentionally went with a live, real demo:

  • Fully functional product (same codebase as prod)

  • Uses demo data instead of real integrations

  • Some interfacing + sync pieces are disabled

  • Auto-resets on a schedule so anyone can jump in fresh
