Built for a painfully specific user
Lead with the niche user and the exact workflow rather than a broad category claim.
Example
“Show HN: I built a changelog monitor for solo devtool founders who miss competitor launches until customers mention them.”
Why it works
HN rewards specificity and technical clarity. A narrow user makes the project feel real, not generic AI wrapper noise.
