you can see it here: https://adchestra.com/#how, the step 4 shows you the exact approval pop-up in Claude.

Great question! The agent asks you with every call to our MCP whether you would like to "Deny"/"Allow once"/"Allow always", that way you can keep read calls on auto-approve and review the write calls one by one to stay on the safe side :)

After three years as a product manager in B2B SaaS, I quit my job to try building my own business.

I often used Product Hunt for inspiration and assumed it was a reputable place where good products competed for attention. Then I launched my own product: https://www.producthunt.com/products/adchestra.

Within 24 hours, I received 7 unsolicited Product Hunt-related emails and 23 LinkedIn requests. They offered upvotes, comments, “permanent positioning” and “genuine support” for money.

I played along with one: Me: “Can you bring me more upvotes/comments?” Him: “Sure definitely.”

His offer included promotion to 158K LinkedIn followers, 11.5K X followers and a 7K-member Telegram group. The price was $300: $200 upfront and another $100 if we ranked near the top. He also sent examples of products he claimed to have helped reach #1 and #3. I countered with $20, that's when the chat ended :DDD

I contacted Product Hunt support because several ex-colleagues of mine told me they had upvoted or commented, but those interactions weren’t appearing. Support explained that Product Hunt recently replaced votes with “points,” that votes and points are not 1:1, and that comments can be delayed or rejected by moderation.

Am I slightly biased because my launch didn’t go according to plan? Absolutely :D

But I’m genuinely trying to understand: are real people still discovering products on Product Hunt, or are makers increasingly competing against paid engagement networks? Is this a recent development—possibly related to the new points system—or has it always been this way?

And if you were launching a new product today, where would you promote it instead?

Haha exactly, would love to hear you thought if you get to try it out ;)

Yes, it can create and organize campaigns, but the naming conventions depend on the AI agent you use (from my experience most LLM models do a pretty good job already).

We haven’t added our own marketing best practices to the MCP yet. We might likely add them later based on user feedback.

Thank you so much :))

We are trying to get some traction on Producthunt as well: https://www.producthunt.com/products/adchestra, but its going pretty slowly thus far.

Hey there, I just built: https://adchestra.com/ - we seem to have some overlapping interests haha :)

Just curious - why have you went with a full-on agent rather than just a MCP? Happy to talk more!

Hey there, yes you can! This is just an MCP that connects to any AI agent, if your AI can do scheduled tasks you can use this to schedule ads work too :)

Not sure if you read the post haha, jokes aside - very little :) I can't promise wonders, but for me using conversational interface with a bit of basic knowledge from Claude powering my ads was a lot easier than the default interface.
