Hunters who are visible and active on Product Hunt – Short List

I usually get a few messages from makers during the week asking if I could hunt them.

Short answer: I don't currently hunt πŸ˜€ (but maybe in the future)

However, I do have a few recommendations for people who are active on the platform and have extensive hunting experience.

Here is a list of active hunters:

Of course, there are more hunters with a solid quota of hunted products, I just listed those whom I have seen frequently over the last couple of days.

If you know more, feel free to add their names in the comments. :-)

Do these hunters typically want payment for their work?

I'm kinda on the lookout for someone to help w/ the launch but not entirely sure what the best way to go about this is...

Nika

@cranqnow To be honest, I do not know whether they have some payments. I know that some offer consultations for payment.

Sam @CRANQ

@busmark_w_nika Ok thanks for that Nika - Really appreciate the advice!!

Nika

@cranqnow You are welcome :)

fmerian
Launching soon!

@cranqnow fyi you can read this in Product Hunt's official launch guide:

There is no rule against using a hunter outside of your team, but paying people to hunt your product goes against our guidelines.

Sam @CRANQ

@fmerian Ahhh very good thanks for this :)

I had a feeling this would be the case, I wouldn't want a paid hunter anyways :)

Nika

@cranqnow  @fmerian I didn't know about these articles :D Is it something new? :D

Ankit Sharma

@cranqnow  @fmerian Exactly, people are selling plan for hunting and taking guarantees of #1 , #2, or #3 places, shame.

Nika

@cranqnow  @fmerian  @saaswarrior Reality: "Hi, Nika... we had some hunter who guaranteed us the first place, but we are not featured at all, can you help us? What can we do? Do something about it." :DDD

nice :D

Sam @CRANQ

@fmerian  @saaswarrior  @busmark_w_nika Ahhahahha lol definitely happened a fair few times

Yan Bingbing

Thx and noted. This is really helpful for our launch :D

Ankit Sharma

Thanks @busmark_w_nika for mentioning me; I really appreciate it 😍. I just want to let everyone know that I don't charge money to hunt any tool. So simply reach out to me; if I like the product, I am ready to become Hunter. Best wishes to all. 🀩

Launching soon!

@saaswarrior πŸ

Nika

@saaswarrior Happy to see that many good active hunters are so excited to get in touch with newbie makers :)

Nika

@chrismessina  @benln  @eljo_prifti Obligatory items in the list :)

Eljo Prifti

@busmark_w_nika have you ever considered being a hunter?

Nika

@eljo_prifti A few years ago, but then I chose a little but different way of using this platform :)

Joseph Burutu

If only we could get@chrismessina to hunt us tomorrow. 😞

Edward Michaelson

just spoke to @rohanrecommends . Incredibly good use of time. Super pertinent and up-to-date knowledge of the platform. Highly recommend.

Nika

@rohanrecommends  @emikes919 Happy to know that there was an outcome from that :)

Claudia Jiang

@busmark_w_nika This is awesome - thanks! We're currently looking for hunters to help with our launch (https://www.producthunt.com/products/umu), so this was really an amazing post at the right time!

Nika

@claudia_jiang Wish you good luck – maybe this post will help you to match with someone :)

Adithya Shreshti
πŸ‘‹πŸ‘‹ Still focus on organic hunts only like the early days of PH.
Nika

@adithya Good to know. Do you still hunt? Because I noticed the last launch a few months ago.

Alula Kibrom
@busmark_w_nika great list. Noted for my upcoming launch.
Nika

@altsyset When is the date? πŸ‘€

Alula Kibrom
@busmark_w_nika tbh few weeks ago lol. But I am looking at end of June now.
Nika

@altsyset Looking forward to that. I couldn't see the "Launching soon" badge next to your profile. Maybe it could increase your visibility and spark curiosity. πŸ‘€

Ju Chuang Ark

Nika

@fmerian You are welcome! :) This is a great speed hunter-dating! :D

Michael

Sorry, I’m still new to all this, is it okay to reach out to them through their social media, or is there a better way to connect?

Nika

@michaellambryl I think that if you mail them (email), it will be more formal. But it depends, some are active more on LI :)

Tristan Pollock

hihi! always happy to help and have one of the best upvotes to hunts ratios <3

Nika

@pollock Wait, I'll add you on the list :)

Joseph Burutu

Hi Nika!
Thank you so much for sharing this awesome list. How do I reach out to these guys? I am launching my product on the 27th of June and need some serious "hunting"

Nika

@joseph_burutu Have you tried LinkedIn?

Nika

@joseph_burutu I would also have a look whether they have any website and email in the Contact (footer)

Joseph Burutu

@busmark_w_nika Thanks a lot, Nika. I've actually reached out to them already. Fingers crossed that they respond. P.s; Our PMM also sent you a DM on X.

Nika

@joseph_burutu Really? What is her name? :D Because some messages are filtered. P.S. I sent your comment to Flo :)

Joseph Burutu

@busmark_w_nika Thank you so much, Nika! You've been super helpful! Her handle is @Oghenekom

Thank you for your input. The hunter who agreed to help us earlier vanished at the last minute, and we are now in desperate need of an experienced person to help, your list is very useful!
