Show HN: I turned my anti-PH launch tool into a community for SaaS builders

A few months ago, I posted SaaSCurate here as an alternative to Product Hunt and other upvote-driven launch sites.

I built it because my experience with PH sucked: bots, hype, and no real support for early indie projects. I wanted to build something better.

But after some great feedback, I realized that just listing your product isn’t enough to drive meaningful traffic.

People would submit their product once and never return. There was no community, it just turned into another directory.

So I redesigned the platform, removed free tool submissions, and focused on something more valuable:

• Founders sharing lessons and experiences

• Getting discovered by actively contributing to the community

The idea now is simple: show up, engage, and get visibility through actual contribution – not just by listing your product.

I’d love to hear what you think, and if you’re building something, drop by and post. I want this to be a real community, not another “submit-and-forget” platform.
