Product Hunt is a community driven platform that needs no introduction for anyone passionate about building products or startups. To put it simply, Product Hunt identifies breakout startups and Hyper helps them get the funding they need to build. Why these two entities? Prologue’s aim is to create a flywheel that attracts, funds, and amplifies the best early-stage startups. At a16z we always ask, “If this works, how big could it be?” If Prologue succeeds, it could transform how startups are created by providing a unique combination of funding, distribution, community, and world class expertise to founders globally. Today, Prologue brings together two brands – Product Hunt and Hyper – with more to come in the future. The playbooks for success are changing, and things like legacy media and paid advertising, which used to work a decade ago when launching companies, are less effective now.Įnter Prologue, a unique company with an audacious vision: to help the best founders around the world level up and break through the noise. All of this opens up opportunities for founders all over the world to create brilliant new things.Īt the same time, it is still incredibly *hard* to build a company and break through to grab people’s attention. As the world recovers from a pandemic, the way we work and live has changed, and you no longer need to live in Silicon Valley to build amazing technology companies. It’s never been a more exciting time to be a founder.
