In fact, innovation accelerated in several key areas owing to the unprecedented environment we found ourselves in due to the pandemic. Specifically, the shift to remote work drove new ideas and experimentation in digital media, including video-centric platforms, virtual spatial presence, and voice-based products.

Every year, Product Hunt puts on the Golden Kitty Awards to highlight the most breakthrough products and the makers that make them, and this year is particularly competitive.

I feel honored to have personally hunted 27 of the finalists in the categories currently open for voting and want to encourage you to support each with your votes! (Yes, you can vote for more than one in each category)

Voting will take place in three tranches, starting today through Friday, January 22. The first-ever virtual awards ceremony will then be held on January 28 at noon PST, hosted by none other than Casey Newton, Substack Writing’s tech & politics reporting darling.

Familiar categories that are currently opening for voting:

⛱️ Remote Work Tools
👀 Side Project
🛠 Hardware
🙀 WTF
🛍️ E-Commerce
💸 Fintech
⛓️ Crypto
