I have been working on April AI (april-ai.com) for the last three months and I want to make sure that I don't leave out anything before the launch. Any tips would be appreciated.

Please be active in the community. Create the buzz around your product. Buzz in the sense, let everyone have an idea of what you have worked on and it shouldn't be a complete surprise. create the coming soon page on PH. Have a clear idea about your target audience.

@yogita_pg awesome feedback, what platforms would you recommend?

@poojasinha There are several options to explore, such as Peerlist, Affordhunt, Insanely Cool Tools, Indiehackers, Reddit, and Slack communities. Personally, I have only experimented with Product Hunt, Indiehackers, Slack communities, and Reddit so far.

@robat_das can you expand on this a bit more? Also what is a hunter (I’m new to PH)
Robat Das
@poojasinha hunter is similar to influencer in the PH. Generally they have a good amount of followers. if any hunter promote your product, there's a huge chance to get attention from maximum people.
