Raise your hand if this describes your technical support ๐Ÿ‘‡

๐Ÿ‘€ If this feels familiar, Iโ€™d love to hear whatโ€™s working (or not) in your support flow. Ping me in the comments or DMs.

My take: the real problem isnโ€™t the bug. Itโ€™s the missing context.

User: Whatโ€™s the benefit of switching to @multiplayer.app ?

Me: ๐Ÿ‘‡

At @multiplayer.app thatโ€™s what weโ€™re building for: making it easier for teams to see the same reality, learn from it, and improve together.

Collaboration compounds knowledge.

Support shares what the user saw.
Dev finds a clue in the logs.
QA connects it to a pattern in the traces.
Product explains the why.

And together, they move a problem from โ€œwe donโ€™t know what happenedโ€ to โ€œwe fixed it, and we learned something.โ€

Humans are naturally wired for cumulative iteration: we learn faster when we share context, build on each otherโ€™s discoveries, and refine solutions together.

The same principle applies whether youโ€™re debugging a production issue, designing a feature, or resolving a support ticket.

We tend to talk about innovation as if it comes from sudden sparks of genius: one person, one idea, one breakthrough. But most progress doesnโ€™t look like that.

Itโ€™s rarely a lightbulb moment. Itโ€™s actually more like a relay race. ๐Ÿงต

High user satisfaction scores arenโ€™t worth a burned out team Multiplayer transforms the chaos of support tickets, eliminating manual work, sloppy hand-offs, and grepping through log files.

None of that shows up in your customer success dashboards.

๐Ÿ‘€ย We wrote about how to make your support workflow productive for everyone without burning anyone out:

But beneath the surface, thereโ€™s a quiet cost:

โ–ธ Support wasting hours chasing context instead of solving problems.
โ–ธ Developers spending more time troubleshooting and searching for info than coding.
โ–ธ Customer success burning energy just to keep the process moving.

The customer gets a fix, leaves five stars, and the customer satisfaction dashboard lights up green.

On paper, itโ€™s success.

But...

End-user support is supposed to be simple: a user reports a problem, the team fixes it, everyone moves on. In reality, itโ€™s usually a marathon of manual steps, tool-switching, and endless back-and-forth.

Whatโ€™s tricky is that this marathon often ends with a (deceptively) positive outcome: ๐Ÿงต๐Ÿ‘‡

The best way to โ€˜winโ€™ at Product Hunt isโ€ฆ not to chase upvotes? ๐Ÿค”

โ€ฃ Because itโ€™s a chance to tell our story.

โ€ฃ Because we actually want feedback, not just upvotes.

โ€ฃ Because I truly believe full stack session recordings are a game changer for developers.

In fact, I care so little about Product Hunt upvotes that I wonโ€™t even share that link here.

Product hunt is dead. Hereโ€™s what happened as soon as we launched Multiplayer ๐Ÿ‘‡.

But hereโ€™s also why we did it anyway ๐Ÿงต

We didn't launch on one of the biggest Product Hunt launch days of the last few weeks to โ€œwinโ€.

We launched to share why full stack session recordings matter.
