Stocks
Every launch is a stock: its traction is its votes, its sector is its category, and LNCH is the whole market. How it works

Highest traction among products launched in the last 7 days. Traction for older Product Hunt launches is frozen (votes stop being re-read ~31–36h after launch; Show HN after 7 days), so this is each product’s last recorded traction. 6 matches. Spam giveaways excluded.

Traction = current votes (PH) / points (HN) — early-adopter attention, not downloads or usage. Gained = traction gained between the two latest daily ingest runs; Gain % only when the previous traction was 5+. Buzz = comments gained in that interval. “frozen” = no longer tracked, so no current gain. How it works
