Introducing myself and SignalWhisperBot

Hey Product Hunt community! I’m Guillaume, and I’m excited to be here. I’m a backend developer who’s worked on a few side projects before but never quite made it to the launch stage. I’ve had to abandon projects due to lack of time, discovering similar products, or sometimes because the project felt too big and I lost confidence it would work. But this time, I’m thrilled to announce that SignalWhisperBot is my first product actually getting launched! 🚀 I primarily use Signal to communicate with friends and family, many of whom love sending audio messages. While I get that it’s an easy way to send messages, receiving long audio messages can be quite a hassle. I searched for a way to convert these audio messages to text directly in Signal but couldn’t find anything. That’s what led me to create SignalWhisperBot, a bot that transcribes Signal voice messages into text. I’m hoping to launch it on Product Hunt soon and would greatly appreciate any advice or tips you might have for a successful launch. Looking forward to connecting with many of you and sharing more soon!

Hi Guillaume, nice to meet you! Don’t be afraid of launching similar products. In fact, it might be a good thing. It could mean that there's demand for them. And good luck with your launch! Make sure to gather enough followers for support beforehand.

Welcome aboard! We launched our product, AIPhone, last Friday, and to our delight, it was featured as the App of the Day. Here are my suggestions for you: 1. Engage a Hunter to spotlight your product; their followers will be notified, potentially netting you some initial votes. Of course, going solo with your launch is just as viable. 2. Post your teaser page (make sure the screenshots look good) across platforms like LinkedIn, Telegram, etc. Reach out and DM makers who have recently launched or are about to launch products; there's a strong community spirit of mutual support. 3. Let your friends know about this - their help will blow your mind away! Hope this helps! :)

@defatom thank you so much for the tips ! What does that mean exactly "Engage a Hunter" ?

@gde They are like freelance 'editor's - if they like your product, they will likely be willing to hunt your app for free. You will still be marked as the maker, no worries.

@defatom Got it, thanks for the clarification !

Hey Guillaume, congratulations on the upcoming launch of SignalWhisperBot! 🎉 It's incredibly satisfying to finally see a project reach the launch stage, especially one that solves such a practical problem. Transcribing audio messages into text is a fantastic idea and will undoubtedly save a lot of people time and effort. I'd love to introduce you to Interwiz as well, which we're launching soon! Interwiz is an AI-driven platform designed to revolutionize the interview process by providing efficient and thorough candidate assessments. It aims to streamline hiring for companies, allowing them to focus on strategic decisions while we handle the heavy lifting. One tip I have for your Product Hunt launch is to engage with the community early—just like you're doing now. Share your journey, show real-world examples, and be transparent about your goals and challenges. It's this authenticity that often resonates most with the Product Hunt community. What's next for SignalWhisperBot after the Product Hunt launch? Are there any new features or integrations you're thinking about adding based on user feedback? And, if you're interested, let's connect and maybe even see how our products can complement each other!
