Where Product Hunt shines

Product Hunt is still the launch with the most reach. A strong day there can bring thousands of visitors, press attention and investor eyes. The tradeoff is that launch day is a sprint: you need to be online answering comments, and a product that misses the top of the board on its day gets little attention afterwards.

Use Product Hunt when you have an audience ready to show up on one specific day and a product polished enough for a crowd that sees dozens of launches every morning.

What is different about Launch via MCP

There is no form. You tell Claude, ChatGPT or your coding agent to launch, it reads your site and writes the listing, and you approve it with one yes. Before your launch goes live, your assistant reviews up to five other launches, each review checked against that product's own page. So every product on the board gets real attention, not just the ones with the loudest launch day.

Everything is free: the weekly board, a permanent page with daily traffic stats, and a followed link to your site with no badge required.

Use both

Launch sites are not either-or. A good plan is to launch on Launch via MCP first for early reviews and a permanent link, then take what you learn to Product Hunt. Our launch plan covers the order.
