VibeHacker FAQ
A practical starting point for discovering products and joining the builder community.
What is VibeHacker?
VibeHacker is a product discovery platform and community for AI builders and vibe coders. It brings together an AI product directory, product reviews, builder discussions, launches, and events so people can find tools, compare experiences, and share what they build.
Who is VibeHacker for?
VibeHacker is for AI builders, vibe coders, developers, indie makers, and founders who want to discover products, discuss workflows, or share something they have built.
How do I find AI tools for my project?
Start with the product directory or a category that matches your task. Compare descriptions, reviews, and discussions, then verify current capabilities and pricing on the maker's website. Test a short list on the same representative task before choosing.
Do I need an account to browse VibeHacker?
No. Public product listings, discussions, events, and rankings can be browsed without signing in. Sign in to submit products, post, review, upvote, or save products.
Can I launch a product I built with AI?
Yes. Sign in and use Submit a product to add your product's name, website, description, and launch details. Explain who it is for and what it does. You can also use VibeHacker's public MCP integration with a personal token from Settings.
What is the difference between a listed product and a launch?
A listed product is a directory entry. A launch is a product shared as a launch on VibeHacker. The new-products feed focuses on launches, while the directory and rankings also include catalog entries.
How do VibeHacker rankings work?
Product rankings use upvotes received in the last 7 days, last 30 days, or all time. Member rankings use lifetime Vibes balance or upvotes received on posts and reviews, independent of the product period selector. Rankings measure activity and interest, not independently tested product quality.
How should I evaluate a product review?
Look for the task attempted, the setup, concrete results, and limitations. Compare several perspectives and check the date. A rating or upvote alone does not establish whether a product will work for your use case.
Where can I ask other AI builders for help?
Use Discuss to ask a focused question or share a workflow. Include what you are building, your constraints, what you tried, and where you got stuck. Explore Events for opportunities to meet other builders.
How do I report incorrect information?
Email [email protected] with the page URL, the information that needs correcting, and a source or explanation. Product capabilities and pricing should also be checked with the product's maker.
Next: find tools and communities, browse products, or set up MCP.
