Just tried this out, frickin love it. This gets way too little love. Please support this people! Some awesome GTM tooling here

Hi Product Hunt! 🤙 I'm Daniel, founder and CEO of DecodeBills. My team and I are thrilled to be making our 1st launch here today, and we're grateful to have this opportunity. DecodeBills is like an invoice filing assistant Forward/auto-forward your invoice/bill emails to your DecodeBills email address, and it will: (1) file the email's PDF attachment(s) neatly in your Google Drive (2) read...

That your users are always right. But finding your users may not be so simple as talking to the first person you meet. It's REALLY hard to put aside your ego and actually listen to your user's pain points.

This is a fantastic article on the idea of trying to disrupt spreadsheets, in case it's relevant! This is coming from someone who once tried to do it and failed https://www.notboring.co/p/excel...

Haha it would be my first next week - will keep an eye out to drop you an upvote! All the best!

Hey! I'm launching https://www.decodebills.com/ soon! 👉 Was inspired by how annoyed I was having to key PDF bills into Xero for my small business 👉 It solves manual data-entry, and giving you data in its most flexible form: spreadsheets (Google Sheets) 👉 Nothing out there in the market lets you OCR an invoice and then have that data put into Google Sheets, and the PDF filed away in Google...

Depends on what you're launching I guess? But you may be surprised how far reaching out to warm contacts / people you meet physically gets you.

Didn't seem to work really well for SaaS - but I saw very strong returns for ecommerce!

Anyone here has tips on how to manage a small business inbox? I could really use some help haha. Although I figure if it's important, people will try to WhatsApp me instead?

We're a distributor selling multiple brands on multiple online platforms, and this has been nothing short of mindblowing!

Hey am I doing something wrong, or is the "upload your own image" button not working on Chrome?
