Hey PH 👋
I'm Bill, solo founder shipping Tendera. I've been running it for two months now.
The premise: chat with AI characters who feel like written people, not configurable templates. Four hand-written characters (Sophia, Mia, Elena, Jade) each with a backstory and a voice. Persistent memory. Free 5-message preview, no signup required.
I built it as an answer to the three things I didn't like about the AI character category:
→ Character.AI: millions of shallow community characters, no curation
→ Candy AI: pick body + scenario, AI performs your config (a fantasy machine, not a person)
→ Nomi: build your companion from scratch over months
None of these match meeting someone written by someone who cared who they were.
Today's launch: the create-and-share part is now first-class. Every public character gets a clean URL like tendera.chat/c/ that anyone can open and chat with — no signup needed for the first 5 messages. The creator owns the share loop, not an algorithm-driven discovery feed.
Where I'm at: ~50 registered users, two months in. Retention is OK. Acquisition is the bottleneck — solo founder, no audience, no budget. This launch is partly my best shot at compound growth via creator distribution.
Specific feedback I'd love:
🎭 Does the character writing actually feel "written" vs templated? (Try Mia or Elena — they're the most opinionated)
🔗 Would you make a character public and share the link? What would make you?
⚡ Anything in the 3-step wizard that feels off?

Who hunted Tendera?
Tendera was hunted by Bill Hong. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
