What it does
The task
Read our product site product url, and the 10 top launches of the last 3 months in the category topic on Product Hunt.

Write our launch kit in a new Google Doc: 3 taglines of 60 characters or fewer, a description of 260 characters or fewer, a plan for 6 gallery images, the maker's first comment, answers to 8 likely questions, and a launch-day plan with times. Follow the Product Hunt rules, and do not ask anyone for upvotes. Do not post anything.
