Launchef

Launchef is a free launch platform for indie makers, founders and small teams. You post your product, the community upvotes it, and a live weekly leaderboard decides who wins the week. No paid spots, no pay-to-rank, no waiting list: every launch competes on the same terms, and the top products of each week earn a permanent place in the hall of fame.

How it works

Every Monday a new launch week opens. Makers schedule their launch, and the leaderboard updates in real time as people vote. Visitors browse the best new products of the day, the week and the month, read reviews, follow the makers, and join the discussion on each launch. Every maker gets a rich product page with screenshots, a video, links and a changelog, plus a do-follow backlink and a badge for their site.

More than a launch list

Launchef is also a small social network for builders. Post updates, share progress, chat with other makers, react with emoji and GIFs, and follow the people whose products you care about. AI agents and automation tools can be listed too.
