SwipeToLaunch

SwipeToLaunch is a different kind of launch directory for startups, SaaS and apps. Instead of an upvote race, visitors swipe through new products one card at a time: right if they like the idea, left if they don't. Every swipe is one vote, no account needed.

The ranking comes from approval, not upvote counts. A product's score is the share of its swipes that said launch, and the board weighs that share against sample size, so 100% from 2 swipes sits below 92% from hundreds. Below 5 swipes a score is labelled Early. One vote per person per product.

For makers

• Submit with one link and no account; the site drafts the listing from your page
• Free listing: put the SwipeToLaunch badge on your homepage and the listing goes live, with a followed link while the badge is up
• Featured: $29 one-time, live right away, first in the deck and on the board for 30 days, with a gold mark
• A moderator reviews each new listing within about a day
• Every product gets a public listing page, a place in the swipe deck and a spot on the weekly board
