At 3 AM I would've pushed my whole Discord. Hunt showed me the upvote velocity was already above the #1 threshold — I held, and we didn't cannibalize our 9 AM window. Finished #1.

We spent six months building. On launch day, Hunt's referral CVR alert told us our TechCrunch link was converting at 2% while our Twitter thread was at 11%. We doubled down on Twitter and hit #2.

The comment velocity signal is the one nobody talks about. Hunt flagged that two top-100 hunters commented on us at hour two. We replied within 4 minutes. They upvoted three of their followers. Rank went from 9 to 4.

I've launched four products. The three without Hunt averaged #12. The one with Hunt finished #4. The data doesn't lie — you need to know when to move.
