I used to think the hardest part of building a product was building the product.

Turns out, creating superfans is harder.

The real challenge is getting people to love your product:

It s funny how we re all obsessed with building the next big feature.

But tools don t make things special.

Stories do.

This community helped turn a scrappy weekend project into something used by 25,000+ people from all around the world. So it felt right to share this here first:

On Jan 31, we are launching Pretty Prompt 1.0 right here on Product Hunt.

Most products obsess over user acquisition.

More traffic. Better conversion rates.

Turns out, growth often comes from something much simpler.

Moments. Retention. Care.

I am so excited about this one!

You can now use Pretty Prompt right inside @Lovable (in beta)

We ve been working super hard to take Pretty Prompt beyond the generic ChatGPT world, and stepping into Vibe Coding.

First day back with my co-founder Charlie, and we showed up ready to build!
Feels a bit like the first day back at school: excited, a little nervous, ready to dive in .

Still feels unreal. Last week, we crossed 10,000 people using Pretty Prompt!

Just 3 months after launch .

What started as a weekend hack to solve our own problem, is now loved by so many users around the world!

I was doubting myself about whether I should post this. It's hard to share your real story in front of thousands of people and not be critical about it. But it s out !

Feels a bit cringe. But you do what you have to do to grow your company, and maybe these learnings help other builders scale their products as we did.

Charlie (@cerwindcharlie)and I have been thinking a lot about what really matters when building a startup. And honestly, it all comes down to one thing:

Making something people want.

It s a bit cringe but it s true.
