AWS cost savings - What's the difference between Vantage and Pump?

Everyone uses AWS! It's a huge % of our monthly SaaS spend here at PH. @Pump reached out to us and we know folks over at @Vantage . Have you used Vantage, Pump or similar? What's the difference between them? They offer significant savings - up to 60%. What are the risks and other considerations we should think about?

For Charthop SUPER fans - what are your best tips and hacks?

Last month, I posted about the best Payroll / PEO / EOR / HRIS for distributed teams and couldn't NOT include a shoutout to my favorite HRIS tool right now, @charthop . I love the google sheets sync that helps me provide data views / dashboards to the exec and finance teams without them needing to log in to Charthop.Outside of being an awesome HRIS database, I know there is so much more and...

Do you use an AI Email assistant? Which do you recommend?

We've seen so many AI email assistants pop up recently. The one I'm most intrigued by is Cora. I just got off the Cora waitlist and am taking it for a spin this weekend. I still get shiny penny syndrome when I see new productivity tools but I am starting to double down on the simple approach of doing less is more impactful. Cora sends you email summaries only 2x a day, and crafts different...

What is a tool you use everyday but hate? For me, Excel and Adobe PDF. Replacement recs?

What is a tool you use everyday but cringe when you have to open them? For me, Excel and Adobe PDF. Replacement recs?Since I moved to Google workspace, I've adopted google sheets. It's not perfect, but for the most part, I can do everything I need in there with ease. But I still work with organizations that use Excel. And yes, I always try to import it into google sheets first, but sometimes,...

Startups using Linear - is it a company wide project mgmt system, or do you use other tools too?

We made a move to @Linear at Product Hunt within the past 6 months. Curious if other startups using @Linear have adopted it company wide. Or is it primarily used by the EPD team and the rest of the company uses different PM tools? And if so, how is it working?We were previously on @Asana . I like to say I am tool-agnostic, and can adapt our company processes to whatever tool the team will use,...

What do you prefer for brainstorming - Miro, Figjam or other?

Here at Product Hunt, we found that we were slowly shifting away from @Miro and defaulting to @Notion for typing up brainstorming notes during meetings (we use @Tandem so already have built-in breakout rooms, ambient music options and timers). So we decided to cancel our Miro account and continue to use Notion or switch to a Figjam board if we really needed a sticky notes format (we're already...

Startup Banking - Which do you use: SVB, Mercury, Brex, Rho, other?

We’re happy @Mercury customers here at Product Hunt. We previously used SVB (I’ve used them at other startups as well), but the interface was clunky, and the bureaucratic process was frustrating—so we switched to Mercury and couldn’t be happier!Mercury recently introduced expense and reimbursement features. While it may not have all the bells and whistles and detailed permissioning of...

What is the best AI notetaking tool that doesn’t actually “join” the call? 

I’ve been curious to try an AI notetaking tool that doesn’t loudly announce itself when joining a call and only shares the notes afterwards with me.I guess this is starting to become more commonplace but it still feels (to me) like an intruder in the call, and like I should ask permission (just as when someone records the call - I’m honestly not sure there is really any difference).Ideally one...

Would You Choose an AI Voice Over a Human? I Just Might…

I thought I'd get used to it, but I still hate talking to chatbots, esp ones I know that just spit up information they can find from a database of help articles. And even more so, when they don't actually help me answer the specific question I have after reframing my Q several times.So when all these AI voice assistant products launched, claiming to take over sales and customer service, I had...
