PRODUCT HUNT WRAPPED
Happy holidays to everyone celebrating. If you’re reading this with a bit of downtime, this is a good one to sink into.
We’re continuing our countdown of the 15 products that defined tech in 2025. These aren’t here because they checked a trend box or shipped a flashy demo. They’re here because people actually used them, argued about them, copied them, or couldn’t stop talking about them. Some reshaped workflows. Some sparked new categories.
Lovable 2.0
This helped push app building closer to conversation. The big unlock was collaboration. People were no longer experimenting alone, they were shipping things together.
Google Veo 3
Video got harder to ignore once sound and pacing entered the picture. At that point it stopped feeling like a novelty and started looking like a format teams could actually plan around.
Windsurf Wave 9
The editor started acting more like a place to manage work, not just write code. Planning, refactoring, and keeping projects coherent while AI is involved became first-class concerns.
Recall
People consume more information than they can remember. This treated that as a system problem, not a personal failure, which is why it resonated.
Comet by Perplexity
An assistant built directly into the browser changed how search sessions flowed. Fewer dead ends, fewer tabs, and less context switching.
One more day to go. The final five close out the list and hint at where things are headed next. What's been your fave launch of 2025? Drop it in the thread below.
