Today is a big day for everyone here at Peerlist! We are finally getting out-of-beta after working on Peerlist for more than 2 years. You must be wondering why weโ€™re building a Professional Network while there is already a big player in the market since decades. Well here are few things: 1. We want to redefine Professional Networking This used to sound absurd initially when we just started. But now we are much more confident that we can do it. Weโ€™re focused on this ultimate goal! โ€œItโ€™s just as hard to build a mediocre company as a transformative one. Both will take 100% of your time. So you might as well work on a bigger idea.โ€ - James Currier The way we network has changed significantly in recent times. Credibility and proof-of-work are the most critical recruitment factors and became even more significant since remote work become a norm. Companies donโ€™t hire just by your past work experience or academics. We enable you to showcase your work more effectively and expose you to new opportunities. 2. We are building something people want! We started receiving overwhelming responses just after launching the invite-only beta. Our early adopters started adding their Peerlist profile to their Twitter bio, in their resumes, sharing it with recruiters, and recommending it to their friends. We grew to 40,000+ users just by word-of-mouth! Peerlist is growing significantly month-on-month, and all our new users are joining us by word-of-mouth. We havenโ€™t spent a single penny on marketing till today. All the growth is organic. We are taking this as a signal that we are solving the right problem. 3. We are enjoying it! We launched our public beta on 24th May 2022 here on Product Hunt. What a day it was and what a response we got! We still canโ€™t forget that day. We were nervous like hell. The adrenaline rush of shipping your side project is something else. The response we received from our community was just excellent. @heyyogini and I embarked on this incredible journey after considerable contemplation. Though the days come with ups and downs, we enjoy this journey. And now we are an incredible team of 6. We are confident we will keep growing from here - getting better at what we are doing, helping more and more people, and solving more and more problems. Our journey has just started, and we are grateful for the continued support of Product Hunt community! ๐Ÿ’š Please do share your feedback, questions or anything you would love to know about Peerlist.

Great job on the Peerlist launch! I appreciate the platform's emphasis on skill and work showcase, it's a fresh take on tech networking. Joined recently and looking forward to what's ahead. I noticed there are plans for a mobile app - could you share any insights on when it might be available? Looking forward to it!
Akash Bhadange
@korzonek Hey Thomas... the app is under private testing. If you like, I can get you a TestFlight access. Just DM me on Peerlist your email id and platform (iOS or Android). Happy to onboard you and get a pair of new eyes to find bugs ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

This is super cool: https://peerlist.io/github-recap (is it possible to add the user-name in the url? would be awesome to share to other people etc)
Akash Bhadange
@sentry_co Not yetโ€ฆ but thatโ€™s a really good idea! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ
Andrรฉ J
๐Ÿ’ก Bright idea
@designerdada Yes. I tried entering my username in the url. but got 404. I think that could go viral etc. Maybe make a nice SoMe badge etc. # bragging rights ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

Iโ€™ve been an early adopter of Peerlist and have seen the team work hard through thick and thin over the couple of years. Iโ€™ve been so in awe of the product from the start that I didnโ€™t realise they were not out of Beta yet! Congratulations on the milestone which is one in a thousand others to come soon! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿพ

Pretty interesting, itโ€™s always nice to find communities of common minded people! Itโ€™s probably asking a bit too many questions at the beginning, and the case sensitive confirmation code was a bit annoying ๐Ÿ˜‚ That said, site looks great and I was happy to secure my user

Congrats on the launch, this looks amazing! Where is it pulling my country/city from during registration? I've linked my Linkedin and GitHub profiles and in both I have it set to UK but it still somehow got it wrong. No biggie, just wondering what I forgot to update! Congrats again and good luck!

I'm really interested in the concept of a professional network specifically for people in tech. Can you tell me more about the unique features Peerlist offers that set it apart from other professional networking platforms? Also, have you considered integrating any AI or machine learning capabilities to enhance the user experience? Keep up the great work!
