Who uses Product Hunt
Makers of software, apps, websites and hardware projects, and the Product Hunt community of users and founders who try and review them. Product Hunt asks that profiles represent an individual, not a company or brand.
Claim your profile
- Anyone can launch on Product Hunt, but the product's makers can claim its Product Page to become verified owners.
- Go to My Products and click Claim, or open the Product Page and choose More, then Claim this page.
- Submit a company email address that matches the product's domain, then open the verification email and click verify email. A matching address makes you the owner right away.
- If your email does not match the product domain, the request goes to moderation; most requests are reviewed within 24 hours, and extra details such as social media links help.
- If the page already has an owner, ask the owner to invite you from the page settings, or use the request access button on the page.
- Once you are a team member, an Edit option on the Product Page lets you manage its information and team requests.
Replying to reviews
Product Hunt describes new-review notifications as a chance to respond to what users say. Each review on the Product Page shows a comment thread. Product Hunt sends bundled email notifications of new reviews, and a claimed page can send each new review to a Slack channel (Edit page, Notifications tab).
- Comments should be genuine, specific and respectful; AI-generated comments and mass commenting are not welcome.
- Product Hunt's help center does not describe a separate owner-response feature for reviews.
Review rules
In our own words. The official page is the rule that applies.
- Content that is spam, promotional, manipulative, offensive or not in English can be removed, and reviews can be flagged or hidden temporarily during moderation.
- Reviews flagged for spam links or promotional content are removed.
- Mass messaging, asking for upvotes, using bots, incentivizing upvotes or any other way of artificially increasing activity is not acceptable, and gaming the system can lead to removal of contributions.
- Profiles must look human and represent one person, with a real name, a photo of the person and a headline or about section; incomplete or misleading profiles are more likely to have contributions reviewed or removed.
Reporting a review
Product Hunt's own process, step by step.
- Product Hunt treats false, spam, retaliatory and unethical reviews (for example malicious comments from competitors) as inappropriate.
- Flag the review on the Product Page using the options in the page interface.
- For complex cases, contact Product Hunt support with details and evidence such as screenshots; the team checks the review against its community standards and may remove it.
- Support is reached through the chat on the site or by email at hello@producthunt.com.
Tips
- Claim the Product Page with an email address on your product's domain so verification is immediate.
- Turn on new-review notifications so you can answer reviews while they are fresh.
- Encourage honest feedback from real users; never ask for upvotes or offer something for activity on the site.
- Launch comments and product reviews are separate: reviews live on the Product Page under Reviews.

About the numbers
- AI citations: the share of answers from AI assistants that cite a page on producthunt.com, out of 23,227 answers in the last 90 days, to questions about the businesses in our directory ("what do customers say about ...") and to category questions ("best dentist in ..."). Search-result and help pages on a review site are not counted. As of October 30, 2026. ↩
- Cited by AI, by industry: for each industry (a directory category, or the national brands filed under an industry such as e-commerce), the share of AI answers about businesses in that industry that cite a page on producthunt.com; n is the number of answers in that industry (last 90 days; only industries with at least 20 answers). As of October 30, 2026. ↩
- Site reach: the estimated monthly organic search visits to producthunt.com (DataForSEO Labs) and its Domain Rating (Ahrefs, 0 to 100). These are third-party estimates for the whole domain, not figures from Product Hunt. As of October 2026. ↩
