I am a tech person. So many software products are inspired by recognizing a problem or inefficiency in the world that could be solved or improved with technology. This might be a personal frustration or a gap in the market that hasn't been addressed adequately.

@martzoukos Very sorry to hear Spiros. I hope you'll bounce back soon.
Apologies, I don't quite follow. Are you working on an app to help people find jobs?
This is going to sound weird, but to some degree, Matthew Perry's death.
Distraction. I am working on my community platform and began building a new feature. Realised that it could be a stand-alone product itself and built it over the next 4 days. Now I'm giving it finishing touches, integrating payments and planning to launch on PH early next week.

@jgani You are right, Jonni. The problem is I'm still working on the main project and it's not launched yet. That's why I called it distraction. I figured that I could built it as a separate product very quickly and therefore began building it. Very happy with the progress.
Will demo it here on the community before PH launch.
When one of my YC batchmates decided to sell their startup, I realized that there isn't enough information or guidance available to founders around M&A.
For such an important part of the startup journey, selling your company is an under-discussed topic.

Hi Jonni
We have built a product to solve the pain points we faced years ago ! if i go back on time i'll make sure to avoid:
- Missing CRM process.
- Missing payments, costs tracking system.
- Absence of a centralized system that allow you to hire business people to drive sales opportunities.
- No dashboard centric on KPIs.
- A fragmented project or task management system.
Looking forward to launch soon :)

@abdellah_abbous I love your product idea! It helps organisations solve growing pains, which is one of the best types of pains.
SoraHub
Helping me to solve my own problems is my biggest motivation.

My own pain: realizing its 6PM and I still have 100 unread emails to read.

@rbatista19 A lot of people have this problem. It's a good space to be in. How are you solving it?
WebCurate
I've said this before. Looking at similar products likes us and the potential of it, inspired me most, aside from my passion of curating top tools online and sharing them with others.
Launching soon!
After immersing myself in Flutter development for the past year, I couldn't help but notice a recurring pattern across all my projects. Time and again, I found myself coding the same essential components and integrations. This repetition sparked an idea: why not create something to streamline the process for fellow Flutter developers?
And so, Flutfast was born out of this realization. Unlike just another boilerplate, Flutfast is my solution to gathering all those common elements we constantly need into one convenient toolkit. My aim? To simplify and accelerate the process of building mobile apps in Flutter, allowing developers to kickstart their projects with ease.

I'll start.
As an introvert I always avoided posting online.
Then I discovered Product Hunt and its super welcoming community. It gave me the courage to start posting and commenting here.
It's been great, to say the least (apart from spam issues).
After a while I noticed a few things that would really improve Product Hunt, like dark mode. So I made a Chrome plugin that makes Product Hunt more fun!
How about you?

Product Pricing.
There are so many SaaS products out there in the market, but we feel most of them are not priced correctly. That's when we started building neeto products.
https://www.neeto.com/
We are launching our new product neetoRecord which is Loom alternative on April 2nd - https://www.producthunt.com/prod...
Our product was inspired by the need to simplify complex processes and deliver seamless solutions. We aimed to create a tool that not only enhances efficiency but also ensures reliability in various applications. The keyword " simit por placa " represents our commitment to offering innovative solutions tailored for precise performance, bridging gaps in technology. This vision drives our passion for excellence and customer satisfaction.
Talking with people and hearing their problems and a desire not to work for someone else for the rest of my years!

Community of active travelers.
We had a vlog with my co-founder and people asked for many advices like where to go? What to do?
How much will it cost? ๐ฒ etc.
We made a survey and gathered all responses in one place, it allowed us to understand the need and necessity of what weโre still doing -

@sasha_buratynskyi That sounds exciting. For me what I'd want from a travel app is suggestions for secret destinations that are not crowded :)
As a fellow tech enthusiast, I can totally relate to the inspiration behind building innovative products. Origin stories always make me appreciate the creative journey and hard work that goes into bringing ideas to life. Looking forward to learning more about your unique journey!
