Great idea ! Does your system recognize exactly the URL the user entered in the "product URL" field ? Or any URL of the same domain ? Imagine someone posted : yoursite.com/en and you entered yoursite.com, will it be detected ? :)

@neuling2k I think the main difference is that theirs is powered by Twilio and we're just use a mailer.

@neuling2k additionally, we watch both the front page and /upcoming. Their homepage says they watch the front page for your product.

About two weeks ago I posted my course on how to build a viral prelaunch campaign http://www.viralrails.com/. The course focuses on customizing open source code built by Harry’s Shave Club to prelaunch their brand and go from 0 to 100k subscribers in one week. I’d worked for a few weeks to get the course ready for Product Hunt and was excited for the release. I shared the course with a friend and, thinking they were helping me out, they posted the course to Product Hunt before it was ready… I was able to get it down but if I hadn’t been paying attention I would have completely blown my Product Hunt launch. So, a couple of friends and I built Product Hunt Watch so that you never miss your product’s one-time release on ProductHunt. Just enter your email and the url of your product and we’ll send you a notification if/when it gets featured.

What need is an in-built feature to take down a post about a startup that doesn't want to be featured on producthunt yet .. Alot of people just go ahead posting stuff on PH like people asked them and its getting annoying. One investor posted our product on PH even though we had the "PLEASE DON'T HUNT ME YET" logo in the center of the website. I just don't get the whole posting. @rrhover should do something about this . Alot of people are getting pissed off about this including me! Peace out @maker, thanks for this !!

Signed up for this. A really enthusiastic fan posted our site to ProductHunt at 5PM a few days ago. It was a special kind of frustrating because it's cool someone liked it enough to post it, but it kind of clipped our wings in terms of launch strategy. Thankfully PH support was cool and worked with the poster and I to take it down.

@scorinth yeah I experienced this exactly. Your URL might have still been burned from the first post (happened to me). PM alex@kehaya.com and I'll share with you a work around ;) for resubmission.

Now all we need is a ProdHuntReserve app. That can reserve your products to not launch on prodhunt pre-maturly

@eonpilot I agree! I don't know if that's possible though.. We'll take a look and see if we can do that:)..

@rrhover I like it and I believe that this function is quite useful. Reading some comments, nevertheless I feel that we would change radically the DNA of @producthunt if we had a reservation function. So every maker or startupper would reserve its product and nothing could be hunted by third parties. So PH becomes a Launch platform such as Betalist... I would be very disappointed! If a startup does not want to be hunted it can remain stealth. If it becomes public, everybody can hunt it in every moment.
