Hey @luka_brzin, I'm looking forward to it! Keep up the hard work :)
Is anyone launching the first week of July?

How do you come up with the first idea?
After validating a few ideas and realising they wont work, I came to wonder how y'all come up with these fantastic SaaS product ideas?
The main thing I hear is "take something someone else may already do, but focus on ONE feature and do it better". But sometimes this just doesn't feel right, and often these big companies have such budgets and developer power that you can't build that feature...

Do you like this new trend of AI products?
Today I had the wonder of whether this new AI trend, where nearly every product hunt launch is some way focused on AI, is a good thing or not.
In my opinion, it has taken over too much. Maybe this is a good thing though, as there’s less development (as more of the work is handed over to AI) rather than using own logic and more complex backend infrastructure.
What’s your opinion? Do you...

Should you drink coffee?
Should you drink coffee to feel energized in the mornings/before tasks? I've never tried coffee so I'm not yet addicted, should I? Am I missing out?

Where to find SaaS bug testers?
1. Where can I find bug testers for a project that hasn't launched yet
2. What kind of pay/reward do testers generally get lured by? Money? Future credit/paid sub for free?
3. Am I thinking about this wrong? Should it be potential customers that "beta/bug test" this rather than externals?
Thanks, I appreciate any response!

When to get started as a founder?
When is best to get SaaS'ing?
I'm a teen, haven't yet had a job. When would be a suggested time to start my own startup? After a few years, or right away but just on the side?
Does anyone work part time; so have half of the time on your projects, and half of the time as a developer for a company/professional work?
Thanks, any help would be much appreciated to help me start my journey

What are your opinions on people that just hunt others products?
Do you find it annoying if someone hunts your product if they have had nothing to do with it? Or if the product isn't fully ready yet and they've just gone and posted it! uggghhh!

My main source has been from being open source, where other developers come in. That gets a few hundred visits a day without anything.
But from a customer point of view, I'd say word of mouth. Speak to lots and lots of people in the area, on linked in, product hunt comments, and make discussions like this but about your topic.
It might be a slow start though, so I'd be interested if others...
If you had no money for marketing your Saas product, how would you get your first cusomer?

Personally I'm a kind of an AWS Fanboy, and kind of trust them only. I tend to find myself trusting small SaaS apps very little, as often the developers are either inexperienced or just don't have a big enough budget to stay secure.
It depends on the product though, Thinker being note taking and planning, seems like a fair use case for Cloud. I'd feel like my "data" is secure enough with...

I use AWS SES, they have a ton of auth, great recommendations every now and then and so far I’ve had no junk mail, but I’ve not checked with anyone else yet. AWS require a fair amount of “reasoning” when applying, so I’d assume they don’t get blocked much.
I’d love to hear others opinions though, such an important topic for businesses

Not at all really, a few questions with ChatGPT every few days. But then I don’t work full time, just a hobby

Crossed 2400 followers on Product Hunt. Is follower count a vanity metric?

Incredible landing page @yeahiasarker! Wow! I had to smack that CTA, it was going to jump through the screen if I didn't 😂 Great job man, looking forward to the launch, though hopefully I get early access and see the masterpiece early :)
⏰ Would you hit the "early access" button even if you don't need the product?

Yeah I guess that's true and could work, would anyone actually join together though, that's the problem
The quantity of AI "wrappers" on SaaS market is quite disturbing
