Maker

We are still alive. When we launched the first version of GuideDoc, about 5 years ago, one of our first actions to try to make ourselves known was to present our platform on Product Hunt. At that time the launch in this community was... normal. Many years have passed and GuideDoc has changed enormously. You can get an idea of the struggle it has been for us to try to launch a streaming platform with the giants we compete with... Besides, we are a company without any external funding and a very small team. Over the years we've grown quite a bit (although we're still a drop in the bucket in the streaming industry) but we've added over a thousand movies to our catalog, completely revamped our website and features and developed apps for almost every platform. When I told people around me that I wanted to relaunch GuideDoc on ProductHunt, everyone advised me to hire an external team, to read a thousand articles on the subject, to spend a few weeks planning the launch... But, in truth, I prefer to allocate our limited resources to documentary filmmaking. I simply wanted to explain to the Product Hunt community that we have survived, that we have improved and that we have done the best we could. Thanks for reading.
