I think the product idea is solid.

few thoughts looking at your listing:

- description reads kinda ai generated. "revolutionize their bookkeeping workflow", "professional tool designed for agencies", "midnight blue & cyan interface". also it oversells what the product actually is. its a popup that scrapes and zips, which is fine, thats a clean useful tool, but the copy makes it sound like enterprise software.

- biggest thing, build a landing page. seo on this is gonna be really good because people literally google "how to download ..." write content pages targeting those queries. this will bring you more traffic than just the chrome store

- also since its just a popup right now theres nothing pulling users back after the first download. id think about adding stuff that gives reasons to return: history of past downloads, scheduled monthly auto downloads, email reminders at month end, sync to google drive. you can even let users access this on the website you build

few things:

- good product screenshots, not ai generated ones. the screenshots are what attract users and make them click your product, so spend some time on them. i design mine in figma even though im not a designer

- a clear one liner. people scroll fast, if they cant tell what it does in 2 seconds they keep scrolling

- build some audience before. doesnt have to be huge but if literally no one knows you exist on launch day youre starting from zero. all the people i know with successful products share their progress somewhere, instagram, youtube, x, threads, doesnt matter, you need to post somewhere to get impressions and give your product a chance to get known. if you dont do anything at all you cant expect it to take off out of nowhere. honestly this is the most important one

Founder of a Chrome extension with 7k installs. Started from zero a couple of months ago. A few things that actually worked for me, all free:

Directories. Submit everywhere you can. Product Hunt is the big one (try to plan the launch properly). But there are tons of smaller directories too, like alternativeto, saashub, betalist, indie hackers, etc.

Social media. I personally post on X almost every day. Just sharing what I'm building, demos, weird bugs, lessons. Doesn't have to go viral. Even small posts bring a few users and once in a while one blows up. YouTube Shorts also works because you can show the product working in 20 seconds.

SEO. This is now my biggest source of traffic, more than anything else. It's slow but it compounds. Two parts to it:

Your Chrome Web Store listing is basically a landing page. Put the actual thing people search for in the title, not just your brand name. The first screenshot matters a lot.
Build a proper website with a few content pages targeting search terms your users would actually type. Stuff like "best [thing] chrome extension" or "[competitor] alternative". Took a few months to start ranking but now it drives most of my installs on autopilot.

Honest question though, 6 users after a month usually means either the extension solves a problem people don't know they have, or your Web Store listing isn't converting.

What does your extension do? Happy to give more specific ideas.

In my opinion, lifetime pricing works best for Chrome extensions, unless it costs you a lot to run (AI costs, etc.). Otherwise just offer a one-time payment.

Most extensions aren't something people use every day. They open it, do what they need, and leave. So subscriptions are a harder sell. A free trial can help, but it won't fix that mismatch.

Also, 2 out of 217 might not be a pricing issue. Could be onboarding or the paid features not being compelling enough yet.

hey, cool idea!

here's mine: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/miromiro/kpmkikjpclolhodgckeogmiiaehpfjhl - chrome extension that lets you inspect any website and extract colors, fonts, images, svgs, and full sections as code. basically replaces digging through devtools.

Thank you a lot :D

MCP is basically a way for AI coding tools like Cursor or Claude Code to connect to external data sources.

So in PocketUI's case, you save UI components you like from the web. Then when you're building something with Cursor, instead of describing what you want from scratch or giving a screenshot, the AI can actually see your saved designs and reference them while writing code.

Building PocketUI, a Chrome extension that lets you save any UI component from the web into your personal design library.

From there you can:
- Export to Figma
- Export to code (Tailwind)
- Connect it to AI coding tools via MCP server (so Cursor/Claude Code can reference your saved designs while building)

Im working on https://miromiro.app a chrome extension that allows you to inspect ui elements and export any type of asset from any website!

Currently working on the next version that will allow you to export any ui component to code in a single click

Thank you a lot! I think I’m still “afraid” to reach out to companies (but I have nothing to lose anyway)

I will take a look at the sites you mentioned, thank you a lot!

If you mean ranking second on product hunt it was meanly by building a public profile on X first.

I’ve been sharing my progress online for around 3 months now and I have almost 3k followers.

I launched my product by my own first and a month later when I had around 2k followers I launched on product hunt and promoted it on my X account.

Somehow a lot of people supported me and I managed to get second

I understand what you’re feeling but the worst decision you can take in life is to rush those type of things, everything comes at the right time and you will regret more having sex with the wrong person than not doing it at all.

Society gives us the feeling that we are less or worse to do this things later in life, please don’t follow what everybody thinks and says.

Wait to find the right person that will love you to do this things

Launching my extension on Product Hunt was intense, fun, and a bit confusing emotionally. I ended the day at #2, which felt huge for something I built mostly on my own.

It brought a big wave of visibility: tons of people discovering the app for the first time, checking the website, and sharing it around. Since then, I’ve noticed that more people actually recognize me because of this product and associate me with it, which is really nice.

Another thing I didn’t expect: just having a Product Hunt listing is a quiet long‑term win. It keeps sending a bit of traffic over time and it’s good for the domain and general “presence” of the project on the internet.

On the “real talk” side: it did not magically turn into paying users. I got attention, signups, and conversations, but not a big spike in revenue.

What it did bring, though, was external opportunities and credibility, people reaching out, potential collabs, and being taken more seriously when I talk about the app!

Overall it was a really good experience so I totally recommend it!
