What Is Product Hunt?
Product Hunt is a community site where makers launch new products, mostly apps, SaaS tools and other tech, and members upvote, comment on and follow the ones they like. Each day's launches compete in a ranked feed, and the top products get extra exposure.
For a startup, a Product Hunt launch can bring:
- Early signups and beta testers
- Feedback from people who try a lot of new tools
- Traffic from an audience of early adopters
Many teams build an email list before launch day and tell those people when they're live. Product Hunt bans asking for upvotes and contests that reward or require them, so a giveaway around your launch should reward things like visits, signups and shares instead.
Gleam has Product Hunt Actions on the Business Plan & above. The Follow action gives entries to people who follow you on Product Hunt.
