When To Launch — Plan successful launches with data-driven insights

I built When To Launch (https://whentolaunch.xyz) because let’s be honest, launching on Product Hunt can feel like throwing a dart blindfolded. After watching countless launches (and launching myself), I realized something: timing isn’t just about picking a random Tuesday or Wednesday—it’s about knowing when your audience is actually paying attention. When To Launch tries to solve one thing: it analyzes historical Product Hunt data to help you pick the optimal launch time for your specific type of product. It’s simple and focused – no overwhelming dashboards, just actionable insights to make your launch count. Why use When To Launch? 🏆 Predict chances of landing in the top 3 📅 Monthly insights on products and user interaction 🚀 Analyze successful launches 📊 Find peak engagement hours ⚔️ Assess competition levels 📅 Identify the best days for your category ✨ More features coming soon Recent Insight: 🧠 AI dominates Product Hunt in 2025 (as of 17th January 2025) with 82 launches, followed by 🛠️ Productivity with 33 launches. 👀 Got insights you'd love to see? Let me know! I’m always looking for ways to make this better (and nerdier). 👍

This is such a smart tool @vignesh_vaidyanathan and much needed as well! Timing really does make a difference, and having data-backed insights instead of just guessing is a game-changer. Also would love to know, if have you noticed any unexpected trends in launch success, like certain niche categories performing better on off-peak days? Congrats in the launch and sending wins to the makers :)

Congrats Vignesh, timing is one of the important factor to launch on PH, and your product definitely going to help makers make better decision while planning on their launch.

With our launch coming up soon, it was super valuable for me to dig deeper into these analytics! Next time I'll probably scramble the team to launch on a weekend. How to you plan to monetize this?

So many tools overcomplicate things with too many analytics and charts. This feels refreshingly focused to me.

Timing is important on Product Hunt and this tool make a difference. Does it offer real-time insights on engagement trends or does it rely on historical data analysis?

What a fascinating time it was. Incredible work by the team. Kudos!!

Does it adjust recommendations based on the type of product I'm launching?

Well done. How does it analyze engagement trends?

Congrats. How accurate are the predictions for top 3 spots?

Good idea and good use of AI

Planning a Product Hunt Launch is always a bit of a mystery, and having data-driven insights makes a lot of sense.

This could really help makers avoid guesswork and time their launches better.

Finally, a tool that helps take the guesswork out of Product Hunt launches.

How does it determine the best timing for a launch?

Timing can make or break a launch, and having something that analyzes trends is a big advantage.
