    The tool actually hit Product Hunt #1 back in February. Since then I’ve added a bunch more on top of the original version. Now you just describe the intent or goal for the leads you want, and it searches based on keywords and a bunch of other signals to surface the best ones for you. I also added a Reddit-powered content writer. Basically, you pick a topic or category, and it pulls the top posts from Reddit, analyzes what made them go viral, and helps you write content using the same patterns. Reddit is super underrated for content. If something blows up there, it almost always spreads to…

    Here's the problem: I launched two products. I wrote blog posts. I posted on X, built in public. I tried running ads. And you know what actually got me customers? Replying to someone on Reddit who asked, "What's the best tool for this?" One reply. Three signups. I felt like an idiot for not doing it sooner. But here's the issue: I don't have time to refresh Reddit all day looking for these posts. I have products to build. Bugs to fix. Emails to answer. Life to live. So I built Overlead to do the searching for me. Overlead scans Reddit, Quora, and Hacker News (and many more to come) for…

    Hey, I am Victor, a french student. I was tired of getting really bad recommandations from the algorithm, always the same videos, same topics. So I created a community-driven recommandation tool, with upvotes like Product Hunt or Hacker News. Looking for something to watch or want to share something you liked? Feel free to check the site, it's free, no account needed (unless you want to share or upvote a video).

    Excited to share something I've been building recently called CandySearch. I made it to solve a personal pain with a SaaS product I built, which was that we were always monitoring Reddit and Twitter to see if anyone had mentioned keywords indicating they were looking for us. Before, we had to go manually respond to posts, often missing good mention opportunities. Would love for HN folks to try it and let me know what you think!

    Hi HN, I built Virlo originally to go after the clipper/clipping market. We had so many customer approach us looking for more (essentially programmatic GTM tool for short-form) that we decided to “answer the mkt”. The pattern was the same on calls we had with early users, that weren't in our OG ICP: Head of Social is pulling inspo manually, creative director is copying trends that peaked three weeks ago, media buyer has no visibility into what competitors are actually spending behind on Meta. Everyone's working hard. Etc, etc… Virlo fixes the signal layer. You set up custom niches by…

    Hey HN! My name's Josh and I'm the sole founder of ForumScout. I had the idea for this project about 3 months ago, and I've been building it ever since. ForumScout notifies you whenever your chosen keyword(s) are mentioned on ANY forum or Twitter thread. For example, let's say you own a SaaS that generates AI headshots. You could get notified when someone mentions "AI headshot", and offer them a free trial of your service. There are many ways I believe a tool like this can be useful, but a few of the obvious ones are: - Respond to mentions of your brand/website in real time. - Find…

    I built a simple tool to help founders figure out who their actual competitors are! You know... the ones your potential customers already know and compare you to. Just paste your domain, and we generate a focused list of 10 competitors with names, sites, and a quick positioning note for each. Why I built it: I run a competitor monitoring tool (https://champsignal.com), and I realized that before people can monitor competitors… they first need to find them. This is harder than you think for people that have not been around for years aha (It's free and doesn't require signup) Would…
