A big round of applause for your product launch on Product Hunt! You have truly outdone yourself and set the bar high for others. Congrats and keep up the great work!
Love the high scoring alternatives idea. How's your database compared to something like Spot?
This is just another expansion on it so feel free to discard:
what do you think of asking someone about the items they use in their daily lives, and then recommend more sustainable alternatives? Could also factor in price.
I love the platform! There are a few suggestions I have thought of off the bat to make it more useful: 1. the ability to sort search results would be helpful, 2. a reporting function that would allow users to flag items for you to run QC on - I noticed a few things that were contradictory in search results as well as some “similar products” suggestions that weren’t similar products. 3. I’d love to be able to click through and learn why something was ranked the way it was. The EWG platform does a good job of this. I’d love to be able to tap into more data behind rankings. 4. A product ranking request or suggestion “box” would be helpful. A brand of diapers I buy wasn’t listed but i’d love to know how they stack up. It would help you see where your weakness are as well from an analytics standpoint.
As a new mom, I want to avoid harsh chemicals and harmful materials for my baby. I love that Finch takes the mental load off by finding safe products for me so I can take care of my baby without sorting through bogus claims. It's simple and fun to use, and I love the branding. It low-key has taught me a lot for what to look for.
I love this app so much! It makes the decision process in trying to buy environmentally friendly products so easy. As a new mom, I especially love learning about all the safe and sustainable products for babies and children, like Alaffia and Pipette. What a relief to know Finch helps make these decisions easier for busy parents!
