Show HN · Oct 16, 2026
llmspeed
A local-LLM speed simulator with a great hook and a trust problem. Our fix: put "measured vs. projected" front and center.
Tagline Feel local LLM speed before you buy the hardware

Launch copy that sounds like you built it.
You shipped it. Now you need a Product Hunt listing, a Show HN post, Reddit posts that won't get removed, an X thread, and a landing page that says what it does. We write all of it in 72 hours, plainly, for each platform's rules.
Founding price: $79 for the first 10 orders. No upvote selling, ever.

Why Ship Plainly
Not a $19 generator
Generators give you the same hype everyone else posts. We start with positioning: who it's for, what it replaces, and why now.
Not a $2,000 agency
One flat price. One intake form. No calls required. A human edits every kit before it reaches you.
Written to each platform's rules
Each Reddit post is checked against that subreddit's rules. Each Show HN is checked against HN's guidelines. Product Hunt copy stays within PH's limits.
What's in the Launch Kit
- 01
Positioning brief
One page: who it's for, the problem in their words, what it replaces, your one-line promise, and the objections to answer.
- 02
Product Hunt set
3 taglines (≤60 chars), a description (≤500), a maker-comment outline and draft for you to rewrite in your own words, likely questions, and gallery captions.
- 03
X launch thread
6–9 posts with a strong hook, media notes for each post, and a standalone short version.
- 04
2 Reddit posts
Each written for one specific subreddit, with its self-promo rule, flair, and source listed. If a sub doesn't allow it, we say so.
- 05
Show HN post
Title and first comment, if your product qualifies under HN's Show HN rules. If it doesn't, you get an Indie Hackers post instead.
- 06
Hero rewrite
Headline, subhead, CTA, and 3 benefit bullets for the top of your landing page.
- 07
Launch-day checklist
A time-blocked plan for the day you launch, in your time zone.
Pro adds a full landing-page rewrite, a 3rd Reddit post, an Indie Hackers post, a 7-day launch calendar, directory blurbs, and 2 revision rounds.

pocketty
A paid iPhone terminal for AI-agent users. The thread asked "$99 for what?", so we answer that in one line above the fold.

Brickbrag
A vibe-coded multiplayer brick world. We split the game story from the build story, and kept a famous trademark out of the copy.

What we won't do
- Sell, trade, or coordinate upvotes. Not on Product Hunt, Hacker News, Reddit, or anywhere else.
- Invent proof. No fake stats, users, testimonials, or logos. If you don't have proof yet, the slot stays empty.
- Sneak past subreddit rules. If a community doesn't allow self-promotion, we tell you and skip it.
- Post for you or promise a ranking. You post from your own accounts. We sell clear writing, not results.

What is Ship Plainly?
A done-for-you launch copy service for indie builders and vibe coders. You fill in a short intake and get launch copy for Product Hunt, Hacker News, Reddit, and X, plus a landing-page rewrite, written to each platform's rules and edited by a human.
How much does it cost?
Launch Kit: $149 one-time. Launch Kit Pro: $349 one-time. Founding Kit: $79 for the first 10 orders. Ship Log: $99 per month, cancel anytime.
How fast is delivery?
Launch Kit in 3 business days, Pro in 5, and Founding in 4. The clock starts when payment and a complete intake are both in.
Do you sell upvotes or guarantee a ranking?
No. We never sell, buy, trade, or coordinate upvotes or comments, and we never guarantee rankings, traffic, or revenue. We sell written deliverables.
Is it written by AI?
AI agents do the research and first drafts. A human edits every kit. Personal comments, like the Product Hunt maker comment, come as an outline plus a draft that you rewrite in your own words, because Product Hunt asks for human-written comments.
Will you post it for me?
No. You post from your own accounts. That keeps it authentic and within each platform's rules.
What if my product doesn't qualify for Show HN?
Show HN is for things people can try right now, not landing pages or waitlists. If yours doesn't qualify yet, we explain why and write an Indie Hackers post instead.
What about revisions and refunds?
Revision rounds are included (1 for the Kit, 2 for Pro) within 14 days of delivery. You get a full refund before work starts. After delivery, if the kit misses what we promised and a revision doesn't fix it, you can ask for a full refund within 14 days. Full policy.
