Getting access to the best deals all the time is almost impossible, especially with limited time and resources. Secondly, even if you manage to raise a fund (and that’s still a big if), succeeding as a VC takes an unparalleled effort. We will not go on to tell you why, but if you don’t trust us here - go on and read the interview with Hoxton Ventures’ Hussein Kanji. First, starting a VC fund is (really) hard. There are several reasons why we consider this an important question. Inspired by a great analysis of PH by Mario Gabriele at the Generalist ( kudos to you, Mario) we asked ourselves a question: what if we created a portfolio out of PH companies?
Many of those later became huge commercial successes - a portfolio constructed from companies that launched in January 2014 ( the earliest available entries in PH’s Time Travel feature) would have made almost any investor’s dreams come true: With 4–5 million monthly visitors (according to SimilarWeb) and 500,000 newsletter subscribers, PH has become a must-read website in the VC world.įor the past 8 years, dozens of products have been published, reviewed and upvoted by the PH community every day. Since 2013 it has served as a launchpad for many successful companies who used PH to attract early-adopters and feedback from peers. Product Hunt (later referred to as PH) is an online platform that helps to share and discover innovative products. What if Product Hunt was an automated VC fund?Īn investment strategy based on Product Hunt votes would have outperformed the majority of funds out there.
