UpstreamStart the maker comment with your own pain
Upstream was #1 on Product Hunt on Jun 18, 2026, with 964 points, and the maker thanks Garry Tan for hunting it. The tagline is The inbox designed for humans and agents. The maker comment starts with the founder's own problem, 200 emails a day at Algolia, lists five features with an emoji each, and offers the community one free month of Upstream Pro with the code PH26.

A specific problem the founder lived makes the pitch believable, the emoji list keeps five features easy to skim, and a community-only code thanks people for showing up. To copy it, open with the problem you lived. Then list features with one icon each.
