What are you building this week? If you’re in stealth, pitch only your background and story as a founder.

I will go first - CortexHub.studio

Tech media platform with start-up discovery

After hours of posting, replying, DMing people, and trying to push traffic, we only ended up with 2 counted upvotes.

At first it felt discouraging.

Especially because:

multiple people said they upvoted

Reddit posts were getting comments

DMs were getting replies

people were actually engaging with the idea

But Product Hunt clearly filters a lot of votes if the accounts are too new or not “trusted” enough.

What surprised me though

Even with low upvotes, the comments were incredibly valuable.

People gave feedback on:

positioning

screenshots

workflow design

extension reliability

feature priorities

prompt workflows vs prompt storage

One comment completely changed how I think about the product:

“People don’t want prompt libraries.

They want reusable workflows.”

That hit hard because it was true.

Biggest thing I learned

The launch itself matters less than:

how clearly people understand the value

how good the screenshots are

and whether the workflow instantly clicks

I also realized: Building the product is one challenge.

Distribution is a completely different skill.

What I’d do differently next time

Better visuals/screenshots

More demo-focused content

Start audience building before launch

Push the “workflow” angle harder instead of “prompt saving”

Focus more on communities where users actually discuss the problem deeply

Overall

Low upvotes don’t necessarily mean nobody cares.

Some of the Reddit comments I got today were honestly more valuable than the Product Hunt ranking itself.

Still learning, but definitely a humbling experience 😂

Curious: What’s your most painful Product Hunt launch experience so far?

I kept running into a small but annoying problem while using AI tools in Chrome.

I’d write a good prompt…

then a few days later I’d need it again and it was either buried in chats or I had to rewrite it.

So I built a simple extension to fix that.

What it does

Save prompts locally (no account required)

Open with a shortcut (Ctrl + Shift + Y)

Click a prompt → it gets inserted directly into the chat input

Works across ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini

Why I built it this way

Most tools I tried either:

required accounts just to save basic stuff

stored everything in the cloud by default

or slowed down the workflow with copy paste

I wanted something:

fast

local-first

and minimal

How I use it

Instead of rewriting things like:

code review prompts

writing styles

analysis frameworks

I just trigger the shortcut and reuse them instantly.

Curious what others think

Do you reuse prompts or just rewrite them each time?

Would you prefer local storage or cloud sync for something like this?

Happy to share it if anyone wants to try it, just didn’t want to drop a link here without context.

Hey everyone,

I just launched a small tool on Product Hunt today and wanted to share the thinking behind it, not just drop a link.

For the past few months, I kept running into the same issue:

I’d write a really good prompt for something specific (marketing copy, code review, research breakdown)…

and then a few days later, I’d need it again.

But it was gone.

Or buried in old chats.

Or I had to rewrite it from scratch.

After a while it started to feel like a weird productivity tax.

What I built

I made a Chrome extension called Savio AI.

It’s very simple:

Save prompts once

Reuse them instantly with a shortcut

Works across ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini

No copy paste, no switching tabs.

Why I built this instead of a prompt generator

There are already tools that help you create better prompts.

But what I noticed is: Even when people have good prompts, they don’t actually reuse them properly.

So they end up:

Rewriting prompts they already figured out

Losing high-performing workflows

Jumping between tools with no continuity

This is more about fixing the workflow than generating prompts.

Quick example

Before: Open ChatGPT → think → rewrite → tweak

Now: Shortcut → pick → send

I just launched on Product Hunt

If you’re curious, I’d really appreciate your feedback (or support if you find it useful).

I’ll drop the link in the comments to avoid breaking any rules.

Curious about this:

How are you currently managing prompts you want to reuse?

Notion?

Notes app?

Just rewriting each time?

I feel like everyone has a different workaround here.

Most founders keep building when things don’t work.

But the real issue usually isn’t the product.

It’s this:

If someone lands on your product for the first time, can they answer these in 5 seconds?

what is this

who is it for

why should I care right now

If any of those are unclear, more features won’t fix it.

Clarity does.

Drop your product or idea below.

I’ll tell you exactly where it breaks and what I’d change.

I reviewed a few early-stage products today.

Same pattern every time:

they explain what it does, not why it matters

the value is there, but buried

no clear “why now”

If you’re building, drop your:

product

landing page

or even just your idea

I’ll tell you exactly:

what’s unclear

what’s weak

what would actually make someone try it

No “looks good.”

Actual breakdown.

Most early products don’t fail because they’re bad.

They fail because:

– the positioning is off

– the value isn’t clear

– or the wrong people are seeing it

I’ll go through what you’re building and give real feedback. Not “looks good.”

Actual breakdown: – what works

– what doesn’t

– what I’d change immediately

If you want useful input, drop:

– what it does

– who it’s for

– what you’ve tried so far

If you just want traffic, this isn’t that thread.

Real feedback from builders No fake hype No “looks good” comments If you want validation, post.

If you want praise, this isn’t the place.

Most founders explain features, not outcomes

Trust is the biggest conversion blocker, not traffic

Nobody shows real proof early enough

If you’re building something, drop it below.

I’ll give you direct, no-BS feedback like this.

Not “looks good.”

Actual breakdown.
