Categories - what your product is or does

On Tuesday, we announced product Categories, a new way to discover products based on their functionality.

Previously, topics were a way to sort our extensive product catalog, however there isn’t a strong taxonomy that supports the discovery of products based on the problems they solve. Topics will remain on the site and serve as a supplement to categories as another way to filter what you’re looking to find.

If you’re a maker, add a category to your product for additional exposure on these pages. All products tagged with categories will show up, but the best reviews help you rise to the top.

If there’s a category missing that would be useful to many products, let us know.

Stack it. Sort it. Show it off.

Stacking products you use or love is another way to support the makers and customize your Product Hunt experience. Now, your profile recommends products you might use, so you can get stacking. The sort feature allows you to pick which 3 products show up on your hover card.

Wow, this new feature update is fantastic! Adding product categories is a game-changer for discovering products based on their functionality. It's great to see Product Hunt continuously improving and finding innovative ways to enhance the user experience. And the ability to stack and sort products adds a personal touch to our profiles.
