Choose your listing type
You can list your startup free or paid. Free listings display a basic profile only; paid launches unlock your full profile immediately.
What free listings include
Your basic profile appears in the free queue, roughly 6-8 weeks out. Founder story, milestones, screenshots, demo video and comparisons display locked to visitors. Our badge must appear on your website before publication. As well as the badge, a free listing needs a complete founder profile. You receive a nofollow link to your website. Search engines do not index thin free pages.
What paid launches include
A paid launch ($5) goes live now or in any week you select. No badge is required. Your full profile unlocks immediately, all sections visible. You receive a dofollow link, on a page open to indexing by search engines.
Add-on options
With a paid launch, you can purchase add-ons: featured placement ($19), extra categories, or bundles. A paid launch picks its launch week for free. A free listing that does not want to wait in the free queue can upgrade to a full launch for $5: the listing becomes a paid launch.
Upgrade anytime
Upgrade from free to paid at any time from /account/listings.
