Prompt: open a Product Hunt launch with the maker's problem

Use the maker's perspective to explain why the task matters, then let the product evidence lead. A personal opening is useful when it gives discovery viewers context they would otherwise miss.

Who this is for: Product teams preparing focused launch motion briefs.

What to prepare

  • Approved maker wording and attribution
  • One verified product action
  • A concise category explanation
  • Current availability and destination

Copyable creative brief

An authored planning example. Replace illustrative details with your approved product facts and assets.

Create a 30-second discovery-oriented introduction for PRODUCT_NAME. Open with APPROVED_MAKER_CONTEXT in the supplied voice. Do not invent a founder quote, customer history, launch ranking or audience reaction. If no personal wording is approved, use a neutral task statement.

Connect the context directly to USER_TASK. Introduce the product category in plain language and show VERIFIED_ACTION using the supplied states. Keep one example object continuous so a first-time viewer can understand the result without prior product knowledge.

Give the evidence more attention than biography. Show the bounded result, name any consequential limitation and then invite the viewer to explore the product's current access options. Use CURRENT_STATUS accurately. Avoid predictions about platform visibility or performance. The sequence should stand alone even if the viewer has not read the launch page.

Make it your own

APPROVED_MAKER_CONTEXT
Use genuine supplied wording or an unattributed neutral alternative.
USER_TASK
Choose a recognizable job for a first-time viewer.
VERIFIED_ACTION
Supply the exact action and matching result.
PRODUCT_NAME and CURRENT_STATUS
Use approved identity and the real access state; the discovery invitation must not imply an unavailable signup or platform outcome.

Make the opening specific

An illustrative neutral opening is “Collected feedback still needed a next action.” It leads naturally to a review queue rather than a broad claim about transforming work.

A real maker statement can replace it only when its wording and attribution are approved.

Adapt the context depth

If the category is unfamiliar, spend a short beat explaining it before the action. If the product fits a familiar task, show the action sooner.

For a longer version, add a relevant limitation or why a design choice matters, rather than extending the founder biography.

Correct discovery gaps

If the film assumes the viewer knows the product name or category, add one plain explanatory line. If it promises immediate access but the destination is a waitlist, revise the invitation.

Check current publishing requirements separately; this creative prompt does not establish platform compliance.

Review checklist

  • Maker wording is genuine or clearly neutral.
  • The category is understandable to a new viewer.
  • The product demonstration answers the opening problem.
  • No platform-performance claim is invented.
