One launch, or every launch day.
Two things cost money here. Your next launch written out once, before you run it — or the measured record of five launch boards, kept up daily, for as long as you keep launching. The free check stays free either way.
Launch Kit
We open your site and read the product itself, then your date, tagline, thumbnail and first comment — and send back the launch written out, plus an honest number for what your launch will realistically do, within 48 hours. It is the only thing here that can still change the outcome.

And which platform to launch on at all. We measure the launch days on several platforms every day, the same way we measure Product Hunt — so if your reach is too small for Product Hunt, we can name a room where it is enough.
You pay only after we accept. We take a limited number a week, and a review that lands after your launch is worth nothing — so if we cannot make your date, you hear that instead of an invoice.

On the day you launch — Product Hunt, Uneed, Show HN, anywhere — your tool goes on our home page and on every launch tool here, under Launching today, with a button that takes people straight to your launch.
The people on these pages are founders working on a launch. That is who sees it.
7,546 pageviews in the last 30 days, counted in our own logs — bots and our own visits excluded.
Book the exact day. 5 slots a day, one payment, no subscription — and when your day is taken, it is taken.
Book your launch dayAccount and a free listing in the Launch Lounge first — the listing stays free, and keeps its followed link. The paid spot itself is marked sponsored nofollow.
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before you buy.
Product Hunt shows all of this publicly. Why pay for it?
Because it only shows it once. A launch day is public while it runs and gone the morning after — the ranking resets, and nobody publishes what place 5 or place 100 cost that day. To answer that later you have to have counted it at the time, every day, on every board. That is the whole product: not access to something hidden, but a record of something that was public for 24 hours and then was not.
Is 29 € a temporary price?
No. Data access costs 29 € a month, with no end date, no countdown and no minimum term. The Launch Kit stays a single payment of 79 €. The launch check stays free, and so does the board comparison on it — that one asks for a confirmed email address instead of a payment.
Can I cancel, and what happens to my access?
Yes, at any time, in one click and without signing in — the cancel button is in the footer of every page. Nothing further is charged, and your access runs to the end of the period you already paid for. On the statutory right of withdrawal: consumers have 14 days, but because access is digital content supplied immediately, and you confirm before paying that you want it supplied straight away, that right lapses the moment access opens (Section 356(5) BGB). The full instructions, including the model form, are on our Right of Withdrawal page.
How is the payment handled?
Through Stripe. You are redirected to a payment page operated by Stripe and enter your payment details only there. Card numbers and bank details are never transmitted to LaunchAmp and are not stored by us.
Is there a subscription?
One of the three, yes. Data access is 29 € a month and can be cancelled any time in one click, without signing in — the button is in the footer of every page, and your access runs to the end of the period you paid for. The Launch Kit is a single payment of 79 €, and the comparison on the launch check costs nothing at all — it asks for a confirmed email address. Neither of those recurs.
What do I get for the monthly price that the free check does not give me?
The free check answers one launch against its own day. Data access is the whole record: every measured day on five boards, what each placement cost, weekday and category breakdowns, the board comparison for any number and any day, and CSV export. It also says how reliable each number is — some sources cut off, and days like that are marked as a floor rather than passed off as a total.
Do you tell me how much traffic a launch brings?
We measure what a placement cost in upvotes on a given day, counted after the day closed — that is the number you can plan with, and it is the one nobody else keeps. Visitor figures are a different matter: no board publishes them, so anything you see quoted for that is an estimate being called data. The exact answer is already in your hands — put a UTM parameter on the link your listing points to, and your own analytics tells you precisely what that placement brought in.
Which boards do you measure, and how?
Five: Product Hunt, Uneed, Show HN, Fazier, SmolHunt. Product Hunt, Uneed and Show HN through their official APIs; Fazier and SmolHunt are read off the page, because neither publishes one. Each day is counted after it has closed, so the numbers are final rather than moving. Where a source cuts off — Uneed's ranking ends at place 50 — that day is stored as a floor and labelled as one. SmolHunt has no archive at all, so it is counted forward from the day it was added and has fewer measured days than the rest.
