Posting your startup in r/new_product_launch
Yes. r/new_product_launch is one of the subreddits that lets founders share their own product, as long as you follow its self-promotion rules and give the community more than you take. The rules and the post formats that get approved are below.
Posts that lead with the problem solved or the feature built, ask for genuine feedback, and include a link matter-of-factly rather than as a hard sell. The best ones frame the launch as a milestone or learning moment, not a promotional ask.
Self-promotion rules
You can share your product with a link and mention it by name, but don't make the post primarily about selling or promoting it—focus on the idea, feedback request, or story instead. Be civil and kind; criticism is welcome if it's constructive and respectful.

built a slack integration to cut meeting scheduling time in half—curious if this solves a real pain point
I spent the last few months automating something that was taking up way too much time on my team. Wanted to share it here and get some honest feedback on whether this is actually useful or if I'm solving the wrong problem.
