What tools did you find on Product Hunt long ago that you now can't imagine a life without them?

I've been on this platform for over 2 years, and we have to admit that the number of tools that appear here every day is truly unimaginable.

Sometimes it's hard to select the best ones, but I have to say that some that I found a few months or years ago, I still use every day because they are useful to me in some way.

Here is my pick:

  • @Streak Hunter – A reminder to log in to Product Hunt every day

  • @SurfPal – a time tracker for my internet browsing

  • @TabsMagic – one tab in a browser that gathers my other tabs (something like Trello for my tabs)

  • @Tidyread – Chrome extension that reads RSS feed (summarises news)

Do you have any long-term experience with the tools you've discovered on Product Hunt?

Feel free to share. 🙂

Thanks for sharing these tools

Nika

@kaydan You are welcome! :) If you have your own preferred pick, please, share it! :)

Kaydan

@busmark_w_nika Thanks! I’m still exploring the products available and following key figures like you to learn and benefit more. Looking forward to discovering great things!

Ramin

Definitely @Readwise
Use it almost every day.

Nika

@ramin I noticed this tool in the past because I used to read a lot. Unfortunately, my reading hobbies are more in the background. 🙈 But love the idea!

Great picks @busmark_w_nika! If you liked these, you might enjoy Note in Tabs — not on Product Hunt yet, but it’s been a huge boost to my focus. It opens a notepad in every new tab — perfect for quick thoughts, daily tasks jot down and staying on track.

Nika

@satya5614 It could be a good restriction tool – until you are not done (and ticked) all the tasks, you cannot enjoy the internet! :D

Rania ZYANE

@SurfPal is the best one. Thank you @busmark_w_nika for sharing.

Nika

@raniazyane You are welcome! :) I can see where I should spend less time! :)

André Rangel

@Tryp.com - launched 4 years ago :)

Nika

@andre_rangel Do you use your own tool too? :)

André Rangel

@busmark_w_nika ofc :) it's a bit adictive as well xD

Nika

@andre_rangel It is nothing better than supporting your own project by using it! :)

@Screen Studio For a startup that doesn't have that kind of budget to hire professional editors, this product is very useful to show the process of using it! We use it in almost every tutorial we do, even answering user questions in general!

Nika

@onbing This one is extremely popular and useful. Because I can see this tool as the screen recording answer in almost every reply :D

Nika

@canva  @aryansharma17, Did you find it on Product Hunt or only see that tool featured? They have been on the market relatively long.

Aryan Sharma

@busmark_w_nika my bad, i did not get your question.

okay, it is bolt.new, i have got it even before it got fame among software developers.

Rohan Chaubey

I first found @Cursor on PH and then we used it for building websites.

Nika

@rohanrecommends This is the best possible scenario. You will find a product that will generate income later :)

Ram

For me @FeedLoom

I use this tool every day to stay updated on news, niche blogs, and search topics I follow—delivered as simple summaries to my WhatsApp or Email, without drowning in tabs or inbox clutter.

Ram

@busmark_w_nika Yes! But instead of endless scrolling, it sends you clean summaries directly to your email, so you're not overwhelmed with information. Just the updates you care about.

Nika

@introvertdev True true, good for digital detox but I would have FOMO anyway :D

Yi Zheng

Maybe @Raindrop.io - Bookmarks Manager, I just used. That sounds bland, but it allows me to retrieve the desired URL from a multitude of bookmarks much faster.🙂

Nika

@partick_support, doesn't it work like Mac folders? Can you create them within one browser? But I can see the added value that you can be in any browser, and these bookmarks are transferable.

Yi Zheng

@busmark_w_nika Mostly yes, it can be added as an extension application by the browser, supports importing raw bookmark files for transfer, and has other features. It helps me find pearls of interest to me from a bunch of bookmarks, which I'm still experiencing.

Michael Hoy
Believe it or not I discovered Notion on PH
Nika

@michaelthoy That sounds solid. Probably PH served as a good channel for awareness in this case :)

I haven’t found it yet — But if I had used some of the tools I discovered here on Product Hunt just a few days ago for a couple of months…maybe I’d have found someone by now 🤩. In any case, @Tabsmagic and @Tidyread are excellent tools—I totally agree with you @busmark_w_nika 🙏🏻
Hossein Yazdi

I usually curate tools myself since I maintain my own directory, and most of them don’t come from ProductHunt. But two really helpful tools for me—and honestly lifesavers when they first came out—were ChatGPT and LemonSqueezy. Nothing too surprising, but they’ve made a big difference for me!

Nika

@hosseinyazdi Wasn't there any case with LemonSqueezy? They were a little bit unresponsive. 🙈

Nigar Safarova
Yesterday I discovered @TabsMagic, and I already can’t imagine my life without this tool. It is such a great tool to keep my tabs organized which is like my second brain. 😆 I love the first tool that you mentioned, Streak Hunter. I think I will use it for sure. 👀
Nika

@TabsMagic  @nigarsafarova Yes, I also found TabsMagic 2 days ago and from the very beginning I knew it is my <3 tool 😀

JaredL

Wow Nika, thank you so much! I’m truly touched that you still remember Tidyread! ❤️

Nika

@jaredl I am using it every day :D
