Tibo's SEO tool launched on Product Hunt as ContentPie, placed #8 and stalled at $300 MRR. Renamed Outrank and repositioned as an autonomous SEO machine, it relaunched to #1 Product of the Day and passed $10,000 MRR within two months.

01The problem

ContentPie had launched, but growth stalled at $300 MRR and more features weren't changing that.

02The hypothesis

The problem was positioning, not the product.

03The experiment

The first launch, as ContentPie, reached #8 on Product Hunt with 174 upvotes.

He renamed it Outrank, repositioned it as an “autonomous SEO machine”, reworked the in-app flow and relaunched on Product Hunt on 20 January 2025, reaching #1 Product of the Day with 800 upvotes.

He credits the growth to the repositioning, the new flow and new features together — not to Product Hunt alone.
