How many top products survive?

by
I'm curious to know if there's some statistic on this: how many of the top of the day launches of - let's say - one year ago, are still active startups compared to the ones down the list? Does PH succeed in pinpoint the strongest?

This is a great question. I wonder what the statistics would look like. In the startup world, 90% of them fail, which applies to all these new top products as well.

@florinmtsc exactly! but maybe the percentage is lower here, who knows

I don't know if there is any data to support this. Also hard to determine what success looks like as there are many small scale solo makers and large scale SaaS products. Success is more of an individualistic metric. I presume many of them are still live but how would we get that activity data? I'd love to see it either way!

@dzaitzow well, not necessarily success but at least having some active users and traffic on their website. I guess you could do it with publicly available data, but I'm too lazy

@fok96 fair enough!
Great question - but I don't think the data is there to give a clear answer!
