Golden Kitty awards recognize and celebrate the most groundbreaking products launched in a year, albeit limited to those that had a product hunt launch. Anyway, it’s an amazing way to discover new products.

#1. Product of the year: ChatGPT (no clarification needed)

#2. Productivity: Omni. With Omni you can use Chrome like a pro. Manage tabs, bookmarks, your browser history, perform all sorts of actions, and more with a simple command interface.

#3. AI The actual product I voted for is Midjourney. I love the worlds it can create.

For me, the second best in this category is a fun app that creates hilariously cringy LinkedIn posts for you to go viral Viral Post Generator.

#4. Design tools: Shottr. Shottr is a small, fast screenshot app built for those who care about pixels. And it’s optimized for Apple chips 🥳

#5. Saas: Jimo. Jimo enables product teams to effortlessly connect with end-users at any step of the product lifecycle, from discovery and shaping to feature announcement.

#6. Best designed: there are many great products in this category. Obviously, the creators put in so much love into them, but I’ll go with Endel. I am a paid subscriber and love their soundscapes.

#7. Bootstrapped & Crowdfunded: Next.js 13. It is a React framework that gives you building blocks to create web applications. We use it at Heylama.

#8. Creator economy: Butter for mobile. Butter turns your sessions from 🙀 to 😻 with fun reactions, agenda, polls, breakouts & more. A great alternative to boring zoom and G meet calls!

#9. Data Analytics: Equals. As the sources of data increase with more tools used in early-stage startups, accessing all the data for analytics is a hassle early on when you don’t have a BI team and the DW infrastructure. Equals connects to various DBs and lets you query them with an Excel-like interface!

#10. Education: Maven. A platform that lets experts create cohort-based courses.

#11. No-code: Make. Make let you connect apps and automate processes. We love Make at Heylama.
