Introducing PeerPush: Where Building in Public Meets Community Discovery

Here's the brutal truth about product directories: They collect products, but they don't deliver customers.

You submit your product to yet another directory. It sits there. Maybe a few other founders browse it. But your real customers? They're not scrolling through product directories—they're on Twitter, LinkedIn, in Discord servers, and getting recommendations from people they trust.

The gap is massive: Product directories have products, but customers are everywhere else.

We built PeerPush to bridge this gap. Here's how we're changing the game.

The Real Problem: Products Without Distribution

Traditional product directories operate like digital museums. You submit your product, it gets displayed, and... that's it. You're hoping the right people happen to visit and happen to find you.

But here's what every founder knows: Your customers aren't browsing product directories. They're getting recommendations from their networks.

The breakthrough happens when someone in their circle says: "Hey, I found this amazing tool that..." That's how real adoption starts.

So why don't we make that the system instead of hoping it happens by accident?

Our Solution: Build-in-Public Community, Not Just a Directory

PeerPush operates on a simple but powerful principle: Founders showcase their growth journey and discover innovative products through genuine community engagement.

Instead of hoping customers find your product in a static directory, you build in public, share your progress, and connect with engaged users who are actively looking for innovative solutions.

Here's how it works:

1. Build in Public with Growth Tracking

Share product updates that capture your MRR, user metrics, and engagement at each milestone. Watch your growth story unfold with historical snapshots that show how far you've come.

đź’ˇ Tip: Regular updates keep your community engaged and build trust through transparency!

2. Showcase Your Products

Publish your products to the PeerPush platform with compelling descriptions, trial links, and regular updates. Active community participation increases your visibility.

🚀 Remember: Quality submissions and authentic engagement lead to better community connections!

3. Community Engagement: The Engine of Discovery

Active community participation through upvoting, commenting, and genuine engagement helps your products gain visibility. Quality interactions build relationships and drive organic discovery.

⚡ Power Up: Authentic engagement creates lasting connections with potential users!

4. Engagement Rewards: Every Action Counts

Earn PeerPush Points through active community engagement:

  • Upvote products: Get points for upvoting innovative products
  • Comment on products: Get points for providing valuable feedback
  • Product updates: Share your growth milestones and progress

This rewards genuine community participation and helps active builders gain visibility.

5. Product Rankings: Merit, Not Manipulation

Products in the PeerPush feed are ranked based on key factors:

  • Community Engagement: Points earned from authentic participation
  • Votes: Community upvotes and feedback
  • Age: Freshness factor to surface new products
  • Growth Tracking: Active builders sharing progress get visibility

This creates a meritocracy where the best products rise through genuine community engagement and transparent growth.
