LaunchInPublic is a community platform designed specifically for founders, indie hackers, and makers who are actively building and shipping products. The main purpose is to create a space where builders can share their real-world experiences rather than working in isolation.

Community members share various aspects of their building journey including product launches, growth metrics, revenue milestones, marketing experiments, failures, and pivots. The platform emphasizes real traction and practical experiences over theoretical discussions or idea validation posts.

The community operates on the principle that building in silence leads to launching to zero users. By sharing publicly throughout the development process, builders can learn from each other's experiences and improve together. The approach focuses on action and shipping rather than just planning or ideation.

The primary benefit is creating accountability and learning opportunities through shared experiences. Builders can see what works and what doesn't for others, avoiding common pitfalls and accelerating their own growth through collective knowledge.

The target users are founders, indie hackers, and makers who are actively building products. The platform serves as a community space specifically for those who prioritize shipping real products and sharing authentic traction metrics rather than discussing hypothetical ideas.
