List your AI app where people already search for AI tools. Start with a niche AI directory (There's An AI For That, Futurepedia, and Vibedonalds for vibe-coded products), one launch platform (Product Hunt or a smaller one like Uneed), and one community post (a relevant subreddit or Show HN). Spread more directory submissions over the following weeks.

The expensive mistake in the vibe-coding era isn't building the app — it's building the wrong one. You validate an AI app idea by talking to about eight people in your target market before you build, and listening for the single capability they all wish existed. That's your wedge. Higgsfield's founder did exactly that on the way to a ~$200M run-rate.

Launch on Product Hunt by preparing for a few weeks: build genuine account activity, line up your assets and a supporter list, and ship at 12:01 AM Pacific (the daily reset) on a weekday. Reply to every comment all day, never ask for upvotes (say 'check it out'), and keep working the week after — that's where most of the lasting value is.
