Hey everyone, I m Caleb. I m an indie developer, and lately I ve been spending most of my time on the awkward part of building: getting people to notice the thing after it ships.
I like making products. I m much less excited about stopping halfway through a good coding session because I should probably post something. That frustration turned into Groniz: https://groniz.com
The idea is pretty simple. Let an autonomous agent handle the repeatable X work, while the founder keeps control of the voice and focuses on the product.
Would love to meet other solo builders here. What are you working on, and what part of doing everything yourself gets old the fastest?
I ve been terminally online for as long as I can remember.
It started with games. Late-night lobbies, MMOs instead of homework, friendships formed over voice chat rather than irl. The internet wasn t a hobby; it was where my social life happened.
Then came forums. Long threads, pointless arguments, deep dives into obscure topics. Hours spent reading, replying, and watching ideas evolve in public. That era shaped how I think more than any classroom ever did.
Eventually, I drifted into crypto. Not because I was particularly insightful- just online enough to encounter it early. I held things I shouldn t have sold and sold things I shouldn t have held. The usual...
Most kids my age are busy playing video games or hanging out, but for the past few months, I ve had a different obsession. I wanted to build something that actually matters.
Because I couldn t afford a big team, I had to become everything for my startup: the CEO, the Founder, the CTO, and the CMO all rolled into one. It s been a crazy journey of sleepless nights, endless debugging, and learning things I never thought I could handle at 15.
Today, I m incredibly proud (and a bit terrified!) to introduce Skill Loop.
I took 2 years off after giving birth and coming back to joining a startup has been exciting, but also pretty intimidating. Things move fast. Tools, trends, expectations, everything feels like it kept running while I was away. Has anyone here started (or joined) a startup after a career break? What was that transition like for you? And if you re comfortable sharing: What would you tell your past self who was just coming back?
I know Product Hunt is very maker-driven and growth-focused, but I also feel like a lot of us are navigating life changes alongside building products, and we don t really talk about that part as much.
Hey everyone, I'm Matteo. solo developer, currently all-in on Apex Trace: a privacy-first dashboard that turns your Fitbit data (via the Google Health API) into dark, animated charts. No backend, everything stays on your phone, pay once and that's it.
Building it taught me some humility: writing the app was the easy half. Google's security assessment for health data scopes, store listings, screenshots, privacy policy wording... the "everything else" turned out to be its own full-time job.
My name is Robin Aletras. Professionally I go by Sartela. I have shipped 16 apps since the start of 2026. My latest app is a guide for Claude. Its the only product that I have on Product Hunt.
My name is Clive Young and for the past 30 years I've worked all over the world as a songwriter and music producer. I'm now developing a number of apps for Public use.
I'm extremely close to launch on the two major ones. The first is a Weather/Travel App with a lot of (hopefully) seamless add-ons to make travel better and easier. One of the issues I'm juggling with is feature-creep. It feels like every time I think the app is ready, another feature/refinement steps up to the font of my mind. Are others having similar issues.
Also, as I'm "vibe-coding", I've found it useful to use the AI Agents for construction and ChastGPT as almost an overseer of the project, and bounce ideas and screenshots between the two. Is that a system any other founders have had success with, and if not, are there solid reasons why?
