Hey everyone — building my first product 👋
by•
Hey everyone,
I’m currently studying Advanced Computing & Commerce at the University of Sydney, and recently started building my first real product.
It’s a browser extension that helps write email replies directly inside Gmail and Outlook — mainly because I used to spend way too long overthinking emails.
Still very early, but I’ve been learning a lot (especially that building is the easy part… getting users is not 😅).
Excited to learn from others here and share the journey.
If you’ve launched before — would love to hear what surprised you the most.

Love seeing your first product take shape...especially a browser extension for emails!
Biggest surprise from my launches: outreach is everything. Building's the fun part...distribution's the grind 😅.
If you're up for it, I'm launching The Sponge on PH soon...an AI-powered flashcard app with a browser extension that turns webpages into study material. Would appreciate a follow (PRODUCT HUNT LAUNCH link in my profile).

Totally agree — distribution is definitely the hard part 😅
I’ve been trying Reddit + short-form content so far.
Curious what worked best for you early on?
Just followed you — will check out your PH launch !!
