I spend more time than I probably should on Product Hunt.
Every morning, I open it before email. I scroll through the launches, click the interesting ones, read the comments, and — if something genuinely catches my attention — I sign up and try it.
Most of the time, that’s where the story ends. I try a product, form an opinion, and move on. But occasionally something is worth saying out loud: “This is actually good,” or “The hype is real,” or “Everyone’s talking about this and I have no idea why.”
ProductRadar360 is where I’m going to write those things down.

What this blog is
This is a notebook, not a publication. I’ll write reviews of tools I’ve tried, notes from building things with those tools, and the occasional deep dive into a category of software I’ve been living in.
I’ll also write about the ones that didn’t land — the overhyped launches, the products with great demos and rough real-world use, the things that solved problems I didn’t actually have.
The common thread: I’ll have actually used whatever I write about. No press releases, no PR pitches, no “here are 10 tools I’ve never opened.”

How I rate things
My reviews use a 1–5 rating:
5 — I use this every day. I’d miss it if it disappeared.
4 — Genuinely good. Worth your time to try.
3 — Has something, but not for everyone — or not yet.
2 — Disappointed. Doesn’t do what it promises well enough.
1 — Actively bad. Wasted my time.

What I’ll cover
Mostly tools from Product Hunt, but not exclusively. If something’s interesting and I’ve tried it, it’s fair game.
The categories you’ll see most:
Reviews — hands-on verdicts with a rating
Deep Dives — how a whole product category works and who wins in it
Weekly Finds — quick notes on launches worth watching
Comparisons — head-to-head on tools solving the same problem
If you’ve found something interesting and think I should look at it, reach out.
More soon.
