In the age of fast shipping and micro-SaaS, countless startups die post MVP — no spotlight, no closure, just a domain left behind. Final Commit is a digital graveyard for those projects: a space to honor the build, share the journey, and be remembered.

Hey Product Hunt, I’m Deepak — an indie hacker from New Delhi.

I’ve been part of several startups. Some made it. Most didn’t.
Like many of you, I’ve launched MVPs, shipped fast, and watched ideas fade — leaving behind just a domain, a Notion doc of lessons, and that quiet “what if.”

Final Commit was born from that space.

It’s a digital graveyard for shutdown startups — not as a postmortem, but as a tribute.

A place where:
1. Founders can share what they built
2. Contributors can leave a note or light a candle
3. Lessons can live on for future builders

Because today, when a startup dies… it returns a 404.
I think it deserves better — a tribute page.
A final commit.

We’re shipping faster than ever in the AI age — but we’re also burning out, pivoting, and letting go just as quickly. Most founders I know have a graveyard of projects before they find their breakout. Final Commit is a soft mission to close that loop — to reflect, to process, and to archive the quiet courage behind what didn’t work. Here’s to the ones that didn’t scale, the pages that went dark, and the builders who still dared.

Would love to hear your thoughts —
and if there’s a startup you’d like to memorialize.

@worklab This is so interesting Deepak - perfect for entrepreneurs/founders who think about multiple ideas but can’t practically pursue them all. This can be my library where I can go back to anytime instead of losing them all together. Looking forward to using this for my own projects. Thank you

@busmark_w_nika Oh… interesting you made that connection! I didn’t know something like that existed — such a great concept. And the fact that people actually share lessons they learned? Love that.

I’ve always believed failure teaches way more than polished case studies of successful products.

Do you have a failed startup you’d want to contribute to a page on Final Commit?

@nivedita_verma Actually do not have it at the moment. But I think a few times there were similar products on PH to yours, maybe you could have a look at them.

@busmark_w_nika Thanks, will check.

@busmark_w_nika great to see you here too Nika, and great suggestion too!

Brilliant concept. This addresses a real, often unspoken, pain point for founders by providing a space for closure and reflection. Honoring the journey, not just the outcome, is so important. Kudos for building this.

@isauravwagh Thank you so much — that really means a lot.

We’ve all felt that quiet, unspoken weight when a project ends.

Final Commit was born from those moments — to give them some kind of dignity and space to breathe.

Appreciate you seeing the heart behind it.
