Product Hunt Integration
What this connection is for
Bring launch-day comments and questions into the same record as the product they are reacting to.
How your data reaches Specky
Specky pulls from Product Hunt on a schedule. A sync runs when you open your workspace if the data is stale, and you can also start one by hand from the integration card.
Before you start
- Developer Token (Required) — Personal developer token from your Product Hunt account.
- Post Slug (Required) — The slug from your launch URL: producthunt.com/posts/<slug>.
Setup
Open Settings → Integrations, find Product Hunt, and click Connect. The form will tell you what to paste and where to find it.
How to create a Developer Token
- Go to Product Hunt → API Dashboard
- Create an application (or use an existing one)
- Under "Developer Token", generate a token for your own account
- Copy the token
Finding your Post Slug
Your launch URL looks like producthunt.com/posts/your-product-launch — the slug is the part after /posts/.
Data synced
| Data | Used for |
|---|---|
| Comments | Launch-day feedback, feature requests, questions from early users |
| Vote count & ranking | Context on launch traction |
How Specky uses Product Hunt data
- Product Graph: Comments appear as graph nodes alongside your other feedback sources
- PRD Generation: AI cites launch-day feedback when writing specs for a solo/small team
- Aimed at builders who launched fast and want their first real feedback in the loop without a full CRM setup
After connecting
New Product Hunt items appear in Discovery alongside your other sources. You can search them, ask questions about them, and cite them in product work without opening another tab.
Disconnecting Product Hunt removes the connection and the signals it brought in.
Troubleshooting
- Connected, but nothing appears. Open the Product Hunt card and run a sync by hand. If it errors, the card shows the reason.
- "Upgrade to connect". Your plan caps how many integrations you can connect at once, and a few providers are Scale-only. Settings → Usage shows where you stand.
- Credentials stopped working. Tokens expire and get revoked. Reconnect with a fresh one — your existing signals are kept.
See the Product Hunt integration page for what it's for and the questions people usually ask first, or the Integrations Overview for how integrations work in general.
