They've exposed the system prompt via the network requests. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and assume that was intentional, and not because the app was blindly vibe coded ;-). Here's the prompt as of around release-t

For those of us who are implementing similar AI-products, it's an interesting opportunity to see what worked for someone else. While it may be vibe-coded, it also... works. In this case, I was interested in how they thought about the d

The Claude Design tool exposes its system prompt via the API requests it makes. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and assume that was intentional, and not because the app was blindly vibe coded ;-). I've linked the prompt as

Thanks! No personalization on taste yet. "Personally", I'm not saving items that I necessarily like more anyways, but rather ones that I want to check out later. Future work to add an "upvote" button that drives p

Thanks! Great to hear!

Yeah. Definitely a good idea. I'm told the clues are a bit cryptic as they are. It would be nice to have another if you're really stuck.

Haha. It's hard to give hints without giving it away to everyone else. Feel free to pm me on twitter @mitch_crowe and I'll be happy to give a hint.

Nice! Thanks so much for the feedback @kinduff. Those are really good points.

Hi! I created an "Escape Site". It has a score of challenging puzzles designed to make you think outside the box, and think differently about the way websites work. The success rate is about 10%. How do you fare? I'd love to

Like you, I spend a lot of time analyzing the programming language ecosystem. I created LanguageHealth to help me figure out which languages are growing or dying. I hope you find it helpful!

Yes. I had a small amount of down time on launch day. Its been up consistently since then, though!

Tabeth. Thanks for alerting me to this. I have addressed the issue. Now all the domains you see suggested should be available.

nameql@mitchcrowe.com should do the trick.

Thanks. That's an interesting suggestion. Might be a good option for revenue.

I had 1/10 be inaccurate when I did that, which is still not good enough. Its definitely something that can be addressed. Not easy, but fixable. Thanks for bringing this particular query to my attention.

I always value critical feedback. Thank you. I think you mean that you found a name that was suggested that was not actually available. Unfortunately, this does happen, but in my experience it is less than 1% of the time. The zone files for

Yeah. I agree on both counts, though. I think .com is still far more important, and adding other TLDs shouldn't take away from its prominence. For the short term, making this super clear is a good way to go.

Wow! This is super helpful. Thank you so much for to ideas, genbit. Loved your feature suggestions. Definitely some things to move to the top of my list there. I'm curious about what exactly you meant about "search domains based o

Thanks a lot for your thoughts! You're right. I would recommend the same thing to others launching on PH from now on. I didn't have any system in place to engage with users after they try it out. My product was easy to get started

by mcrowe 9y ago
This is really useful to know. You're right, I think an engaged user might use a product once a month or so. The challenge is to stay at the top of their minds the next time they look for a new name. Having a login with value-added fea

Yes! You're absolutely right. Probably my biggest mistake was not thinking about retention before launching on Product Hunt. I suspect that your experience matches that of most visitors through Product Hunt. Your suggestion about que

Thanks for your suggestions simantel! Writing about what did and didn't work for the Product Hunt launch to help others is a good idea. I really enjoyed Traction, but I should probably re-read it. Thanks for the reminder!
