Reviewers mostly see Lovable as a fast, easy way to turn ideas into working prototypes, landing pages, and polished front ends, especially for solo founders and non-coders. Users repeatedly praise its clean UI, quick iteration, and useful GitHub and Supabase workflows. Founders of MindPal and Aden say it helped them build demos and prototypes quickly. The main complaints are familiar: costs and credits add up fast, support can feel weak, and more complex apps often trigger bugs, loops, or unwanted code changes.

User reviews highlight Lovable as fantastic for building real web apps dramatically faster and easier, with an excellent interface and rich feature set. It helps solo developers move quickly and iterate easily, focusing on product rather than technical overhead. Pricing for intensive use is a concern due to rapid credit consumption. Lovable is preferred over alternatives like Bubble, Replit, and bolt.new for its combination of ease of use, interface quality, built-in features, cloud services, and speed in turning ideas into working apps.
Overall, Lovable is positioned as a powerful AI fullstack engineer tool that accelerates full-stack application development with a focus on usability, integration, and rapid prototyping.

[ChangeLog] December 11 — Leaderboard redesign, mobile @-mentions
Product Hunt adds mobile @-mention autocomplete, a new launch-day dashboard with social link tracking, a redesigned leaderboard that shows points-based ranking, and renames Topics to Launch Tags for clearer launch discovery.
@-mentions now have autocomplete on mobile —Tag your friends to bring them in on the conversation!
New launch-day dashboard for makers with social link tracking — Track your points and ranking over the course of the day and see which social posts are bringing you the most support.
Redesigned leaderboard with points — The leaderboard now displays points, which are based primarily on upvotes with comments as an additional factor. Points determine the ranking. In the past we’ve displayed upvotes, which are only one component of the ranking, and this caused lots of confusion (”Why is my launch ranked lower than a launch with fewer upvotes?”).
Renamed "Topics" to Launch Tags" to be more descriptive — We have two main taxonomies at Product Hunt. Launch Tags are topical tags like AI, Productivity, iOS app, Open Source, Audio that are relevant for launches. Your product hub (which contains all your launches) belongs to one or more Product Categories. These are organized by use case, to help people find the best product for them. E.g. Code review tools, AI databases, SEO tools.

[ChangeLog] October 11 — Tag your friends
Product Hunt improves tagging, streamlines the leaderboard, and refreshes maker bylines and newsletters. It also launches Product Landscapes, new category pages that combine Shoutouts data with expert-written product landscape articles.
Tag your friends
Faster, better @-mentions — just type someone’s name!
Continuous leaderboard
We’ve removed the “Featured | All” toggle on the leaderboard in favor of a “See all” expander at the bottom. Note that our moderation team still does choose what to feature above the fold (see our guidelines). This was a community suggestion - please keep them coming!
Maker Swag
I’ve heard it’s healthy for makers to separate their personality from their product. And yet I will happily answer to “Rajiv Product Hunt.” The bylines default to your most recent launch, but you can change it in your profile.
New Newsletters
We've completely overhauled our daily and weekly newsletters
The Leaderboard (Monday through Friday)
Our ultra-fast Daily: Three takes on new products. Yesterday’s top ten launches. That’s it.
The Roundup (Every Sunday)
Everything you missed this past week on Product Hunt: Top products, spicy community discourse, key trends on the site, and long-form pieces we’ve recently published.
Make sure you're subscribed here.
In case you missed it: Product Landscapes
We launched a new set of product category pages, which combine our Shoutouts data (which products are loved by the top builders) and Product Landscape articles written by top founders who are experts in their fields.

[ChangeLog] September 2 Changelog — Draft Launches and Scheduling Updates
Product Hunt updates its submission flow with a new Create Draft option, replacing Launch Now so makers can review, share, and collaborate before scheduling. Scheduling is now day-based and goes live at midnight PT, alongside the new Pre-Launch Dashboard for draft and scheduled launches.
This Wednesday, we'll be rolling out an update to the submission flow. Historically, at the end of the submission flow, you could either Launch Now or Schedule for a future time. Going forward though, we're going to replace the Launch Now option with a new Create Draft option.
This change is based on consistent feedback we've gotten from Makers who either accidentally launched their product too early or who wanted to be able to see a complete version of their launch and collaborate with their team on it before scheduling.
Creating a Draft
Creating a draft will give you the opportunity to see a complete version of your launch without needing to select a launch date. It also means that you'll be able to share and collaborate on the launch with your fellow Makers, something that's not possible when the launch is in the submission flow stage. These new draft launches won't be indexed on the site, so you don't have to worry about others finding it. Whenever you're ready, you can schedule the launch for the date of your choice.
Scheduling Updates
Scheduling will also be changing slightly. It will work similarly to how it has in the past, but there will no longer be a time selection. Time zones can easily get confusing and with our global community of Makers, we've seen many launches get scheduled for the wrong time or even date. Now, you can pick the day you'd like to launch and your post will automatically go live at midnight PT, ensuring it gets a full 24 hours on the site. And if you do need to delay a launch to a specific time, you can e-mail us at
.
These changes to the submission flow will help cut down on accidental launches, reduced time on the site, and give our team extra time to review launches and occasionally provide feedback before they go live.
Pre-Launch Dashboard
As a reminder, if you haven't already seen it, we also recently rolled out a new Pre-Launch Dashboard that serves as your home base for Draft and Scheduled launches.

[ChangeLog] August 28 — No more “Coming soon” (and a couple other shiny updates) ✨
Product Hunt adds forum threads for new products, a self-destruct button for hunters and makers, updated Alternatives pages, and a new footer with hot categories, products, and forum threads, making launches easier to manage and discover.
Hello friends, and welcome back to the changelog. The devs have been running on a balanced diet of espresso shots and questionable amounts of energy drinks, which means… you guessed it: fresh updates are here. From saying goodbye to “Coming Soon,” to giving you a shiny red self-destruct button, to sprucing up Alternatives, and a shiny new footer, we’ve packed a lot into this round.
Coming Soon → Forum Threads
The old Coming Soon pages have officially retired (and you lot noticed). From now on, every new product you create gets its own forum thread. It is your place to share updates, drop teasers, or just shout into the void while you wait for launch day. People can still follow from your forum page to get notified when you go live, but now you can actually start the conversation early.
The Big Red Button
Sometimes you launch too early, or plans change. Instead of emailing us at midnight with a “hey, can you make that disappear?” message, you can now handle it yourself. Hunters and Makers get a shiny new self-destruct button at the very bottom of the edit page. Click it and your launch is gone. No forms, no waiting, no awkward back-and-forth, and our support team get to sleep in. (P.S. Don't worry if you accidentally delete your launch, our team can restore it)
Alternatives, updated
We have also rolled out new Alternatives pages so it is easier for people to see similar tools side by side like this page for Windsurf. If you are building the next Notion, this is where folks will discover how you compare and contrast. Of course, the highest reviewed products will land on top and so on.
A Shiny New Footer
At the bottom of the page you’ll notice a new footer section that has some of the hottest categories, products, and forum threads on Product Hunt! Check it out on your coffee break. If that coffee break turns into going down the product rabbit hole, don’t say we didn’t warn you.
Go ahead—open your forum thread, start chatting, and maybe peek at where you land on the Alternatives board. Got some feedback you're just itching to get off your chest? We'd love to hear it

Okibi — an agent that builds agents for you, launching today
Product Hunt launches Okibi, a web app that helps users build agents by describing what they want. The product is pitched as a faster, simpler way to create agent workflows with prompts, without fiddly setup or wrappers.
Browsers Weren’t Built for Work
Hey Product Hunt! I'm Mahyad, the founder of SigmaOS and now Okibi — an agent that builds agents for you, launching today. We're currently going through YC for the second time, but the first time around wasn’t exactly smooth. In fact, we got kicked out… and then fought our way back in. Here's the full story.
In 2021, we started building SigmaOS because modern work had outgrown the browser.
You had Slack, Notion, Figma, Google Docs, and 43 tabs open at all times. Browsers weren’t built for this kind of workflow. We needed something that treated the browser like a workspace, not a filing cabinet.
SigmaOS let you group tabs and web apps into workspaces. Each project had its own space. No more hunting for lost pages or context switching every 30 seconds.
We were proud of it. We thought it was worth applying to YC.
Accidentally Scheduled, Barely Ready
I got the YC interview invite while movers were packing my apartment. I was so excited I immediately called my co-founders, Saurav and Ali.
While clicking around, I accidentally scheduled our interview for two days later. We were completely unprepared.
We split up fast. Saurav worked on the demo. Ali and I walked around London rehearsing our answers, especially the one YC always asks: “What are you building?”
Also, I had made a bet with Saurav. If we got an interview, I’d show up with a mullet and a mustache. So I did.
The First Call
On the Zoom: Gustaf, Harj, and Nicolas. These were people I had watched for years. We pitched. The interview lasted 10 minutes. They told us we’d hear back.
That night, nothing. I messaged the team, joking maybe they were just being polite because it was late in London.
The next day, Gustaf emailed. He liked the team and idea but wanted to see more. He sent a link to book a second interview. I accidentally scheduled that one two days later too.
The Yes Moment
That second call lasted around 30 minutes. The questions were sharper. Our answers were stronger.
At the end, Gustaf asked, “Would you like to do YC?
We said yes and from there on it was “Welcome to YC.” We couldn’t believe it. We screamed. We jumped. We hugged. It felt like years of dreaming and building had finally clicked.
The Launch That Broke Everything
A few days into the batch, we launched SigmaOS on Bookface. Early feedback was strong. The founder of Codecademy signed up, which felt surreal—Codecademy was how I learned to code. Two days later, it all fell apart.
I woke up to messages from Saurav about passports and residencies. I didn’t get it. Then I checked my email. YC had to kick us out.
Because of US export laws, they couldn’t give internal access to people with only Iranian permanent residency. I had one of those. My UK Exceptional Talent visa didn’t count.
The Weirdest Founder Problem Ever
We were not facing a market problem or a growth problem. We were dealing with international compliance.
I told YC they should keep the team and the company, and just drop me. Gustaf said no. He gave us a few weeks to figure it out. If we couldn’t fix it, all of us would be removed.
It was an absurd situation. But Gustaf kept doing office hours with us. That support meant everything.
Code in the Morning, Immigration at Night.
We ran a double shift. Mornings were for building. Nights were for immigration strategy.
Eventually, we found an obscure workaround. Paraguay offered permanent residency if you made a qualifying investment. We found someone who worked in immigration there. She barely spoke English. I barely spoke Spanish. Through WhatsApp and a lot of improv translation, we made it work.
A month later, I became a permanent resident of Paraguay and we sent the documents to YC. Their reply: “This is true resilience.” The legal contact joked, “You’re like cockroaches.” We were officially back in.
The YC No One Talks About
That story became our go-to with investors. But more importantly, it changed how I saw YC.
Yes, YC helps you launch and fundraise. But the real value is quieter. It’s the belief they have in founders. It’s removing roadblocks so you can keep moving forward.
Gustaf didn’t just back the product. He backed us.
The Next Bet
By early 2025, I was winding down my work on SigmaOS. But I had already started playing with AI agents.
We had used GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 in SigmaOS to build agentic workflows. But everything we tried broke.
Building useful agents meant juggling tool calls, syntax trees, hosting, evals, and endless patching. Even our own internal tools eventually collapsed under their own complexity.
Building What We Wanted
That’s when we started Okibi. It’s a web app where you build agents using prompts. No fiddly UIs. No weird wrappers. Just explain what you want and collaborate with it. It writes the code for you, sort of just like Loveable.
We tried all the automation tools like Zapier, Lindy, Gumloop, but they never felt fast enough. We always defaulted to doing things manually. Okibi is for people who want power without setup.
Back Again
As soon as we started, I knew we were applying to YC again.
Not because of the check. Not because of Demo Day. Because YC pushes you to move faster than you think is possible. We set the application deadline as our launch deadline. We shipped on time. We got the interview.
The next day, we got the call. We were in. This time, there were no mullets. Just momentum.
That brings us to today, Okibi is launching on Product Hunt, so if this story caught your eye, and you want to learn more, check out our launch.

[ChangeLog] August 21 Changelog — 🏆 Top Product badges
Product Hunt adds Top Product badges that spotlight the products builders love most, based on Maker Shoutouts and Reviews. The inaugural list highlights products with real traction and momentum across key categories.
Product Hunt has always been the place to see the top launches. Soon you’ll start to see “Top Product” badges in places.
Here’s what’s going on:
We realized something: A "top launch" is different than an actual "top product" that has traction and momentum.
Some months ago, we launched a new feature called Maker Shoutouts to answer this crucial question: "What are the best products on Product Hunt?"
Shoutouts allowed new launchers to celebrate the products they find indispensable (e.g. If you built your frontend with Vercel, and love it, you'd give Vercel a "Shoutout"). This gave us real data about what products the top builders are using — the true “top products” and not merely top launches.
After > 20,000 shoutouts, we have an initial answer to this question.
We've found the true Top Products 🏆
These are the top 0.001% of products, as determined by a combination of Maker Shoutouts and Reviews. These are the products that the best product builders love and admire.
Our inaugural Top Products (grouped by category) are:
- Notion
- Linear
- Intercom
- Slack
- Loom
- Framer
- Webflow
- Figma
- Github
- Stripe
- Supabase
- Firebase
- Tailwind CSS
- Next.js
- Vercel
- React
- GPT-4 by OpenAI
- Claude by Anthropic
How do you win Top Product? 🏆
Make a product that builders love to build with and use themselves. Make a product that builders love so much they shout you out in their launches!
