Weโre reimagining the Professional Network. Join Peerlist for the most beautiful professional profile, community of people with ability, and credibility, and much more!
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 weโre 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. Weโre focused on this ultimate goal!
โItโs 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 donโt 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 havenโt 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 canโt 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! ๐
Please do share your feedback, questions or anything you would love to know about Peerlist.
@heyyogini@designerdada congrats on the launch fellow launchers! what a great story and really like your approach to re-think a professional network. I just signed up and have my profile https://peerlist.io/guille I can't help to think there is a collaboration opportunity with our AI resume screening product Brainner.ai
All the best!
Big fan big fan big fan, this is creating a new era of how professional network should look like at this age and time, lesss gooooo ๐๐ peerlist team ๐
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!
@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 ๐
@heyyogini@designerdada
๐ Congratulations on the phenomenal product launch! ๐ Your innovative software is a game-changer, and I'm excited to see it soar to new heights. Kudos to the entire team for this remarkable achievement! ๐
@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 ๐ฌ
Iโve been an early adopter of Peerlist and have seen the team work hard through thick and thin over the couple of years.
Iโve been so in awe of the product from the start that I didnโt realise they were not out of Beta yet!
Congratulations on the milestone which is one in a thousand others to come soon! ๐๐พ
Pretty interesting, itโs always nice to find communities of common minded people!
Itโs probably asking a bit too many questions at the beginning, and the case sensitive confirmation code was a bit annoying ๐
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!
Proud to see Peerlist coming out of beta. They have got exceptional standout features and created a right balance between a portfolio and professional networking.
