I’m a first-time student founder and just launched today — would love your advice

Hey everyone 👋

I’m a student developer and today is my first Product Hunt launch.

I built ReplyMate, a tool that generates email replies directly inside Gmail and Outlook — mainly because I kept spending way too long rewriting simple messages just to get the tone right.

It started as something I built for myself, but I’m now trying to see if it’s actually useful for others too.

Honestly, I’m realizing that building the product was the easier part — getting people to discover and use it is much harder than I expected 😅

🚀 I launched today on Product Hunt:https://www.producthunt.com/products/replymate-ai-email-replies?launch=replymate and would really appreciate honest feedback and advice from people who’ve been through this.

A couple of things I’d love to learn from you:
👉 What helped you get your first real users?
👉 What makes you decide to upvote or try a product on launch day?

Really appreciate any insights — thanks for reading 🙏
