Re:Capybara themed free file converter on Thursday January 29, 2026 @04:51PM (#46817184)
I made an OGG -> WAV converter and realized it is basically almost free to run most conversions, so I decided to build and host a free (and cute) file converter called CapyConvert!

Try it out, tell me what you think - it is free and we don't store files. If you want to leave a tip feel free, if not, may many capybaras be in your future :)

Re:My first product launch – BuyerIQ on Sunday October 19, 2025 @06:27PM (#45638605)
I saw a retweet by garry tan last friday.

It was about a peer reviewed research paper that could predict buyer sentiment using synthetic buying decisions with a 90% accuracy!

I knew what I had to do...

So in 24 hrs I built v1 of BuyerIQ to help startups and indiehackers actually get a better sense of their ICP before they waste time and money on the people that probably won't buy your thing!

This is my first product so please go easy on me haha

Product Hunt Astroturfed?

On numerous occasions I get copy pasted DMs asking for "my support" on Product Hunt.And it seems like PH is dominated by mostly astroturfed products.Does anyone have any stories of their own launches on there or any advice on how to make a good impression on there without being super connected?
