🚀 Road to 1,000,000 Votap users — Day 30 | Current: 372
by•
Yesterday we launched on Product Hunt and finished #13.
Out of ~500 launches, that puts us in roughly the top 2–3%, which I’m genuinely proud of — especially with heavy hitters (even GitHub!) launching the same day and not taking the top spots.
One thing that surprised me (and honestly disappointed me a bit):
Product Hunt filters comments heavily. We had 60–100 people from our community — friends, family, LinkedIn followers — upvote and comment, but none of those comments showed up. Some even disappeared after I replied.
Not seeing that early feedback sucked, to be honest.
That said — huge thank you to everyone who supported Votap yesterday. Your votes, messages, and DMs meant a lot 🙏
More tomorrow.

I'd say #13 is pretty solid, congratulations! And thanks for confirming that leveraging new PH accounts (family & friends) is not a viable strategy, that's really helpful to know.

@matt_rewo Thanks Mat. Yes it seems to work that way.
