The short answer

Product Hunt remains the single best-known launch platform for new SaaS and AI products, and a strong launch day can put you in front of thousands of early adopters plus a dofollow backlink. The honest catch: a mediocre launch with no hunter, no assets, and no community push gets buried by lunchtime. Best treated as a one-time event to plan around, not a passive listing to submit and forget.
