For anyone that's looking to meet more people and get involved in the PH community, comment below!
Hopefully the folks in this thread can follow each other, interact, and learn more about what everyone's working on. 🤝
@adam_maceachern1 Yeah, you're the second person in the last five days to mention that. On my todo list for today. I just wish someone would have mentioned that 3 years ago when I first made it ;)
@crobertsbmw Ditto for the interactive demo, it does look great. I don't have any children yet but I have nieces and nephews. This could be something I'd show them.
Great initiative Adam!
I'm David, co-founder of Between.
Between: a hybrid spatial audio platform that uses laptops & phones to maps out the conversations onto a virtual spatial call so remote aren't left unheard on the TV. It helps everyone sound like they're in the same room even when working from home. We've currently launched on PH today, so would really appreciate feedback there!
What I'm interested in: Machine Learning (GANs, NLP), Metaverse/XR, Mental/Social Wellness, Drumming, and Tetris.
What I can help with: any software that is tailored to startups or productivity I can provide valuable feedback on. I've used dozens of productivity apps so I can tell you whether yours is truly different or not.

I am interested in marketing and digitalization, I also love data!
@trakti I keep telling my partner that legal is the next big industry to be disrupted by AI, but he won't believe me. :) I love that you're adding blockchain technology and smart contracts to really make the whole thing digital. 👏

Nice to meet you guys!!!
yo-yo! my name is Andres, and I'm a serial cereal eater.
jokes aside, I love building things and especially helping others build things, we are on the verge of launching our BIGGEST yet program for startup validation.
What's the plan?
We teach founders the skills to build and test their startup ideas, this process gets them closer to launching, and that's what we want to see, would love some feedback from you!
check us out at: buildupcamp.com
@adam_maceachern1 thanks for the feedback.
The most important element of the program is actually interacting with customers.
We help founders do that at two stages, 1) the beginning of the program to understand deeper the problem that customers are experiencing, 2) and towards the end of the program when a prototype has been built to get feedback on the potential solution.
If you are interested, I would love to jump on a call and see how we can help you, we are testing our improved messaging this week and launching on PH this coming week (hopefully Monday).
Our program will kick-off at the end of October, and last for 4-weeks, sessions are in the evenings (CET) and you will get the chance to work with awesome mentors and other founders. Our program it's focused on helping you test your idea, but the main objective is teaching the skills so you can replicate the process afterwards. This would be our 4th time running this program this year.
Lastly we have thousands of dollars worth of perks from our partners (Miro, Notion, Zendesk, Stripe, etc.) so we want to make sure we help you as much as we can to get started.
Nice idea Adam!
I am Ruben, and I'm working on corepo.org, a search engine for companies, free of advertisement, with helpful lists and providing information like funding, size and date of creation for each business. We are combining it with a business blog, on which you'll find ideas worth discussing; and a podcast where founders and CEOs are interviewed to talk about their entrepreneurial journeys.
The aim of this platform is to help new entrepreneurs and serial founders to find the next big thing to work on, and to provide tools to make their working life a bit easier.
Official launch date was postponed but I'm still very excited to release it soon, and people can already go have a look if they are interested :)
@adam_maceachern1 thanks for your comment, it really is exciting to see people being enthusiastic about this project. To answer to your question, making it as an extension was the original plan. But as we are combining it with our blog on business news, and now we're adding a podcast, we thought it would be better to design a whole platform (which is not ready yet haha) :)
Hi Adam, I really like your initiative and would like to meet more people on PH.
I am Misha, 10 years ago, I created Price2Spy 2.0 a price monitoring tool. A few months ago, I decided to try myself on the other side of this industry, creating a service that will test your website's bot protection. I am also looking for beta users at the moment, so feel free to check this out: https://botmenot.com/
Also, if anyone else is interested in e-commerce, machine learning, web scraping, bot protection, and bots in general, feel free to hit me up!
@adam_maceachern1 Thank you - Sleek definitely looks interesting. BotMeNot – a bit slower than expected mostly due to the holiday season. Our Webapp GUI is nearly done, but now comes the more difficult part: executing actual bot tests, and evaluating results. We’ll keep you posted on important milestones
Hi Adam, I really like your initiative!
I'm Julia, a Product Marketing Manager at LeaksID (https://www.producthunt.com/upco...). LeaksID enriches private docs with dynamic invisible anti-leak marks. You can't remove these marks and can't find them. So with LeaksID you can be sure that all your documents are secured and in case of a leak, the leaker will be found. We have a special investigation tool, where you upload compromised documents, and the system will read marks and determine the owner of the copy.
As for me I have wide experience in marketing, worked in different startups (travel-tech, mobile geo app, cybersecurity). And I will be happy to support your products!
@adam_maceachern1 Cool, thank you! I will really appreciate it if you can test our system LeaksID and share your feedback! I will send all info via Upcoming page to your email!
Amazing!
So, I am a 24-year-old kid who doesn't do drugs, thrives on pursuing uncomforting ventures, and likes to experiment with things like marketing, growth hacking, dancing, and whatnot. I am currently building https://wyloapp.com/ (Launch awaiting in the next month) as a marketing madman and it's been mentally and physically fattening :D
Wylo is our baby that is being nurtured for interest-based networking. We let users have full control of their news feed and they can also read articles and acquire tools/resources related to interests they specifically love.
Btw, I love creating content. You all can find me making videos, where I amalgamate the world of cinema with marketing concepts:)
I must say, this community is full of gorgeous and context-driven human beings. The essence of supporting each other just for the sake of shared growth is nothing but invaluable.
Hope some of us cross paths in the future if not here.
Let's keep sailing and scaling together, as a troop!
Great idea @adam_maceachern1. T
Let's see. I am head of product for a 2M+ funded African Tech marketplace startup.
One of the senior developers here and I are working on a chrome extension(that will eventually evolve into a mobile app/web) as a side project. We did an alpha of the project within our friends' circle and we got positive feedback. Now, we are finalizing the product along with the branding and landing page to launch here hopefully by the end of September. I am more active on PH this early to build a community that hopefully will help us during the launch.
What an awesome discussion post! Thanks @adam_maceachern1
I'm currently working for a startup company called Upflowy, we're a no code SaaS product that helps build out signup flows. I'm a junior marketer at the company.
I've been absolutely loving the task of community outreach, there are so many different slack channels, discord servers, facebook groups and subreddits filled with people who want to give advice and share insight! I've been able to accelerate my learnings and contribute too.
Thanks for helping me find another group! Keen to connect with moe experts!
@adam_maceachern1 Here's a few that I've found to be really helpful!

- Indie Worldwide
- Online Geniuses
- Product Led Growth
Discord:

What we're working on:
Tinyask (https://tinyask.co) - a knowledge community for people building and navigating nonlinear careers. Users find, learn and share knowledge through short audio Q&As and tiny cohorts 🌱
Why we built this:
We initially built this to solve our own problem of wanting to learn useful, actionable knowledge directly from ppl who are a few steps ahead of ourselves on journeys that don't have a playbook.
Who this is for:
People who are navigating career journeys that don't have a playbook e.g. founders, community builders, product people, creatives etc.
@adam_maceachern1 Thanks 🙂 This landing page was shipped 2 nights ago so I really appreciate the feedback.
Incentives-wise:
We know that people already want to pay it forward and share knowledge via coffee chats, mentoring calls, a Medium/Substack post etc. Sometimes it's purely altruistic, sometimes they are looking for more material rewards.
Taking that, we're really anchoring the community around sharing knowledge and helping others through short 1-minute audio answers whilst building your personal, shareable AMA page. On top of that, 'creators' can also host paid cohorts (3 - 4 days, async, audio-first).
Hey everyone, I am head of community at SigmaOS, we have a slack if you want to join (sigmaos.com/community). I deal with anything people/community related so ask me anything!
@adam_maceachern1 Best tip i can think of for a good slack community is to not try and over optimize your slack. Give your community freedom by not having too many rules and slack channels. The fewer slack channels you have the more active they are. This will increase interactions between users drastically. It has gotten to the point where we have users answering users questions before even we can. This goes without saying but you yourself obviously should be very active as well.
In terms of growing going forward, I think giveaways and little competitions are cute. Even some online events just for fun. An idea im was tweaking with recently is to have a comeptition for free SigmaOS credits by having them all post an image of their sigmaOS set up and vote for the coolest one. This will get them using the product and thinking about it. Plus it is loads of fun.
Sorry for the long message I just really enjoy this stuff! 😊
Hey Adam,
Big thanks for the question.
I'm Mia - Marketing Executive at https://sealcommerce.asia/ . We specialize in codeless web design solutions so that Shopify users can get their high-converting stores quickly.

We resolve our customer's pain points by rolling out products like https://ecomsolid.com/ (launch on PH soon!) fully decked with theme templates, page builders, add-ons, and integrations so our users can build their online business all-in-one-place. We have a free plan and paid plans with free trials to support the needs of business owners regardless of where they are in their journey.
Because we're in the growth stage, any feedback about our product or even marketing material is very much appreciated. Of course, I am excited to learn more about your product and support your needs! Let's connect!
Great idea, Adam.

Hi Adam,
Seems we have the same idea! :)
