What a good idea! Props to ProductHunt for sharing this data 👏🏼
Also, good job on choosing Crisp 2.0 for your customer support 😁

@yamine_x Thanks a lot 😊 Yes PH does share the data, but not all of them I suppose. But I have barely broken the ice. I need to start delving deep to get more meaningful insights form the data.
All the upvotes will be really helpful to increase the traction so more makers use the platform 😊
@devinrajaram Thanks a lot. Please do spend time on the app and give me feedback to make it better. 🙏
Looking at your making the blog appear on top app. Subscribed to that and am looking into the earlier product launched. Hope I can write a blog after that for this app to make it appear on top 😁
@merrillhefdy Thanks a lot 😊 Let me know if there are anything you want to add into the app. Would help me improve it
@mona_carrot Hey Mona Thanks a lot for that. Appreciate the feedback. 😊
Awesome tool, @vignesh_vaidyanathan ! Does solve a real problem. A single precise problem. Delightful! Added to my article about Product Hunt: https://isora.me/what-ive-learne... (shameless selfpromo).
@alexanderisora Wow thanks a lot for that 😊 Read through your article. I wonder I should have read it before I launched my product.
@alexanderisora I have a doubt regarding finding the right Hunter, from your blog. Just sent you an email. Please check that when you've got time.
@alexanderisora Hey Alex, I'm new to Product Hunt and I found your article very useful! Thanks for sharing.
@alexanderisora Hey Alexander, your article is really valuable for someone who is a novice on PH like me :) Kudos!
@aasatt Wow. 😉 You dont have to decide based on hunch anymore. You get data here from PH so we can plan it properly based on each topic. Anyways, AR for Live photos 👍 very cool. Upvoted and left a comment. Goodluck.
Such a valuable tool! Great use of the PH API 🙌
Would be interested to know what you're using for the data visualisations?
@lachlankirkwood Thanks a lot. I am using Chart JS for visualizations and for Github commit graphs, am using Cal Heatmap. 😀
That's supercool @vignesh_vaidyanathan Thanks for saving us from going just by our guts. Happy to look at the data and take decision. Just a feedback some of the reports like "trend,Calender" takes lot of time to load, it would be great if you can look at the speed optimisation part.
Cheers,
Vishal
@vishal_nema thanks a lot for the comments. Yes I will check to optimize it. Anyways I'm working on the V2 of it to add more features and since the API is changed. Will keep you posted
This platform so cool. When to Launch is an another example to showcase the power of data. Surely makers can take advantage of the insights from this. Congrats on the launch 🎉🎉🎉
@5harath Thanks a lot 😁 I really want this to be a platform where makers can base their decisions on deciding if a product idea is worth by competitor analysis and proper timings to plan their reach.
WhenToLaunch helps you determine the optimum date to launch your product on Product Hunt.
This app is the outcome of a simple script that I built to analyze the trend of products and upvotes on Product Hunt using the ProductHunt API. I also wanted to track when users are most active on upvoting so that I could schedule the launch better. This will also help you track the trending topics on product hunt and collections and do a competitor analysis based on the reach of each product.
After building and using the script for a few days, I noticed that there are optimal times when a product should be launched to maximize views/upvotes. My gut told me that the best way to figure out when to launch my product was based on analyzing data, and I was proven right.
I shared my findings with a few of my fellow makers and asked if they also struggled to figure out when to launch their products. And guess what, they did. So I decided to publish this as an app, to make it easy for anyone to use this tool.
This is a very modest start that could turn into a bigger analytics platform, but initially, does this solve anyone else's problem here?
More analytics based on category and upvotes for products will be added to make the app better. Please let me know if you want something more to be added into this or any feedback here.
@aazar_ali_shad Thanks a lot. 😀 Please upvote the post so it gets enough traction so I can make it better based on feedback 😉
@kesara Could you tell me where you found that? It should be a glitch. Would be useful if you could send a snip of it.
This is super cool, congrats on launching! Has a few responsive issues but desktop works great
@thekiddewey Yes. there are few things I need to take care for responsive. Working on it and will change it soon. thanks for feedback 😊
@mathieu_grac Thanks a lot. 😀 Would be great if you could upvote the post so it gets enough traction so I can make it better based on feedback 😉
Wow the data on here is useful and incredibly validating. Makes me want to reconsider launching my next project for Pitching Investors. I seen one of the reports had a top product of month that I was hunter of! This is really great work @vignesh_vaidyanathan ! I would love to see more data on the best time to actual post your new product and the effects of comments, votes, etc.
@wendyde03942462 Thanks a lot Wendy. Glad that the data shown is useful. Much more to be added to the app like competitor analysis, maker research etc. Stay tuned. Hopefully it will be adopted as a platform to validate your launch and products.
This is really interesting one and a much needed one for the budding product managers. What is your product roadmap plans?
@barani_kumar1 Hi Barani, Thanks for the comment. 🙏
Since you asked, I am planning to have this as a one stop platform for analyzing the product information on Product Hunt.
-> I am planning to add extra drill down features for Topics and Collections.
-> Planning to bring in competitor analysis for similar products posted on PH
-> Reach out to people who are following similar posts/ topics so you get the right people you can target it to.
These are however in the roadmap and will soon update on the launches. 😀
