Just launched Pretty Prompt. 2nd Product of the day. Now need feedback!

We built a tool for ourselves that went wild on Product Hunt, and 0 to paying users in under a week. Here's how it happened - looking for feedback and ideas!

We were sick of fighting with prompts.
So we built a tool to fix it.

My co-founder, Charlie, and I kept getting stuck on the same thing: Writing better prompts.

๐—•๐˜‚๐˜ ๐—ฃ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—บ๐—ฝ๐˜ ๐—˜๐—ป๐—ด๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—ถ๐˜€ ๐˜„๐—ฒ๐—ถ๐—ฟ๐—ฑ๐—น๐˜† ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฑ.
You know the drill:
โ€ข You get a good idea
โ€ข You fire up ChatGPT
โ€ข You type something out
โ€ข Itโ€™sโ€ฆ meh.

So, we did what any sleep-deprived founders would do: ๐—•๐˜‚๐—ถ๐—น๐˜ ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฟ ๐—ผ๐˜„๐—ป ๐˜๐—ผ๐—ผ๐—น. Over a weekend.

No fluff. No fancy pitch decks. No looking for funding. Just a scrappy MVP we wished existed. We called it ๐—ฃ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐˜๐˜๐˜† ๐—ฃ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—บ๐—ฝ๐˜. Think Grammarly, for prompting.

Launched it on Product Hunt โ†’ 10k improved prompts in the first week.

And hereโ€™s the crazy part: 30% daily growth since launch.
(!!!)

Turns out, a ๐˜ญ๐˜ฐ๐˜ต of people were feeling this pain. No idea how it got there, but people are making TikToks of it! (And I don't even have TikTok ๐Ÿซ ).

It's super straightforward. ๐—ข๐—ป๐—ฒ ๐—ฏ๐˜‚๐˜๐˜๐—ผ๐—ป. ๐—š๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐—ฝ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—บ๐—ฝ๐˜๐˜€. ๐——๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฒ.
A Chrome Extension to help you (us) write better prompts, faster.

Would love to share it with the IndieHacker community, and if people want, I'll create a discount code just for the community.

Would love to hear your thoughts!
(You can try it out without even logging in.)

    Strong momentum. To sustain it, Iโ€™d make the value prop painfully specific on the homepage (who itโ€™s for, what improves, and one concrete output example). โ€œBetter promptsโ€ is broad; a narrow first wedge tends to convert better. Happy to share a concise teardown: https://roastmysite.io/go.php?src=ih_prettyprompt_20260327_a3

    Just saw the demo video on your website. This is really cool.

    Love how Product Hunt worked for you. Might give it a shot for what we are building. Does it have to be fully built before using Product Hunt?

      I always think ship yesterday, is better than shipping tomorrow. But with that said, I would only push to Product Hunt if you think the minimum value is there. Or if you want to use the launch as a testing to see what people say/think/and how they use it.

      Worst case, you do another launch after! It's never a one-off :)

      Also - give Pretty Prompt a go and let me know what you think!
