Tons of new features on your Founder Spotlight pages if you have a Founder Spotlight.
Most of my time is going into three products I'm designing and building with my wife Claire. LaunchChair (https://www.launchchair.io/) helps founders research an idea, define the right product, and give coding agents enough context to build it properly. FreeScan (https://www.freescan.app/) gives anyone a free, practical audit of their website, while BuildHop helps independent products get discovered without requiring founders to already have an audience.
Pushing a ton of visual design enhancements to BuildHop all week and we have some new features coming to the feed as well as some big algorithm enhancements. What's everyone working on this week?
Looking good dude! I just gave it a look, I'm noticing the menu on mobile isn't hugging the right side and kind of floating in the middle of the header, feels extra weird when you open the actual menu.
BuildHop just got a little sharper! Our new launch badges are smaller, cleaner, and show your total upvote count. Pick a light or dark badge in your dashboard, copy the short embed code, and add it to your site. We also improved dark mode across BuildHop with softer mint accents, clearer text, and more readable buttons, tags, and tabs. You can now switch themes directly from the navigation. Give the updates a try and let us know what you think. Your feedback helps us keep making BuildHop better!
Thanks, I briefly mentioned on home page 1.. Claude parsing standarts is different 2. Feedback is not generic, there are concrete examples 3. Scoring system depends on methodology 4. False-positives are not possible due to the method 5. Rather than affirmative review - it's more objective I mentioned the differences in some subpages and home pages. You are welcome to try - if you don't love the results, happy to refund
this is cool but what make this different than asking claude or chatgpt directly?

Didnt load in build hop failed to load error. If i click through to your actual website link from your profile it does load
Seems like a ancestors issue with your header, maybe after you submitted to BuildHop you changed your security headers?
Shipped password-protected links in Artor, built with a lot of care and craftr. Help me test? Open it, click around, comment on anything off. https://s-fheas9rav4jvbvchoy.preview.artor.app/ pass: testing-artor try a wrong one first ;)
maybe you copied a space with it? Just had some friends test it and worked fine, can you check again?
thank you works now! if I'm gonna be brutally honest, I did not love it - idea is cool, but I am asked to log in, complete the onboarding etc before seeing it - If I have discovered product from scratch, I would not continue and invest
Hey I think you got things a bit confused bro, this is just demoing the password protection to things you push to Artor, a new feature to protect your links. The la ding page is at https://Artor.app/ but I appreciate the honesty as always.
What’s everyone working on this weekend? What’s one thing you want to accomplish before Monday?
Still deep in polish, but shipped a big feature: public links can now have a password. if you want to try: https://s-fheas9rav4jvbvchoy.preview.artor.app/ Pass: testing-artor - type a wrong pass first haha
To all Builders/Founders: Just a friendly PSA - if you want your site hoppable, make sure your CSP is configured correctly to let iframes display your site.
This is the CSP error that will happen otherwise: Framing 'yourdomainhere' violates the following Content Security Policy directive: "frame-ancestors 'none'". The request has been blocked.
thank you had that one but resolved it - maybe you can add a copy and pastable prompt for agents so that we can handle it faster
I got this feedback that our landing page is bad. We'd love to hear from more people, and find areas of improvement.
This is becoming an extremely crowded space, delegating everything to AI is a bad take too, AI is not magic and it's pretty bad at a lot of stuff including building this landpage.

I think the confusion might stem from the landing page first showing a chat on what it looks like wpp. It might be better to lead with the Content Lab so it doesn't come across as just another chatbot guru.
First things first: thanks! =D I’d love to hear people’s thoughts on guided tours. I worked at a company where they were the core business for five years, but I often found them annoying and blocking. One idea I’ve been considering is using tabs to guide users through the main features: Organize, Version, Feedback, and Iterate, the core loop. Maybe that’s what he was referring to.
Damn dude, way to iterate on your homepage based on feedback! The new homepage looks awesome and the product demos are super cool! Consider having an animated guide that points out what to do in the hero demo?

This is awesome! And the new homepage looks great! I just looked again based off this feedback and I agree that a guide within the hero section demo app might be awesome, but keep it in the demo area and not site wide.
I'll play with it a bit and think about a solution for that! Also I feel like the sample content there is not good enough too.

After playing with it a little more it’s confusing that the demo app for the demo has your branding and it’s far too interactive. The demo app should obviously be fake, it almost seems like that’s what your product is.
We've just turned the waitlist off for the next handful of people. Get in there and stop hopping between tabs to manage your emails 🐦 Tern. Your email, all in one place. https://tern.so
Thank you Jacob! It's been really good fun. Hopefully not much longer and the mobile apps will be ready too!
Awesome, this seems a really great idea and would solve a ton of my problems, sadly most companies - including mine, don't allow to use third party tools like this one =(
Yeah that is a massive limiting factor. I have plans to offer enterprise eventually. Maybe one day we'll be there. I'd love to hear if you end up using it for personal emails in anyway :)
Little reminder here. All feedback goes through a review process, it’s very obvious when you give yourself feedback and try to glaze your own product. 😂
I had no idea that was possible haha one idea if I'm leaving feedback on my own product you should make the profile not anonymous, problem solved haha
You can’t, but because we have truly anonymous feedback and voting for users who don’t have an account you can just leave feedback in incog, it’s always obvious and super lame though haha.
We heard everyones feedback and have made some pretty big changes to update our landing page. New copy and a 98% replica of the actual app in the hero "map" section. check it out and let us know what you think! https://camprtron.com
This is rad dude! Love to see the iteration. It’s been a lot of fun to watch you evolve your products. 🙌
I'm trying to tackle how I get people into the MetricShots editor. I'm aiming for sharable draft links with OG images to show someone what to expect. Do you think this will work? https://x.com/AfterimageDev/status/2100171154413552080?s=20
Pushed a ton of changes to feeds, user profiles, and various new ways to earn points. More on this tomorrow!
A few sign ups coming in already which is great. Made some UI changes to the arena to add some energy when inside the battle. Added captain badges and shareable recruitment cards. More to come before Season 0 begins
but what is it? need moar links. (also make sure you use Product Update posts if it's a product update)
Apologies Todd. New on here so just figuring it out. Will do another update in the correct place.
That's awesome Drew! happy to hear you've had some sign-ups already! Keep going! Fyi, you can share links and shamelessly promote here as well.
What does everyone think about this feedback?
This is a really neat idea, I think the pricing could be adjusted a little bit and the free tier could be more generous

Hop Productgimme mo fo free! not super great feedback - it just seems like they want more for free, when you're already aggressively cheap. I think 50 is a good feel for the product. honestly might even be on the high side.
Yeah that was my gut feeling but, I always want to check for bias. 50 covers a lot of ground for starting products with little traffic. Thanks for the gut check!
I almost agree with it being on the high side, realistically a lot of these startups aren’t going to see that much feedback purely from their homepage, and if you see more than that you should pay. 😂
Today on MetricShots: additional picture support 🙂 https://x.com/AfterimageDev/status/2099854048555835819?s=20
Two big updates for MetricShots today! Connect your X account and pull in your follower count, display name, handle, and profile picture. You can also pull your Domain Rating directly from Ahrefs and go far beyond the raw screenshot!
It is pretty amazing, google shows buildhop as the first page linking to my landing page
yes buildhop also increases DR I guess. I have checked my products and they are on google search results with Buildhop links. It is cool.
Been hopping products for a while, there amazing projects and i liked the idea that i can review the design and send feedbacks, i would appreciate if someone also reviews my landing. Grill me!
