Rank #1 on Product Hunt.
No guesswork. Just proven launches.
I'm Istiak Ahmad, a SaaS founder who launched Lancepilot to #1 of the day, then helped 5+ founders do the same. End-to-end launch strategy, outreach, and execution.
Lancepilot: my own #1 launch.
I didn't just consult on launches. I built and launched a real SaaS to the top of Product Hunt. 300+ signups in 24h. $62k valuation in one month.
From idea to #1, without paid ads.
Lancepilot is a WhatsApp marketing platform. We launched on April 8, 2024, hit #1 on day one, swept the marketing category, and got inbound interest from investors in the US and Europe within 60 days.
