SwipeToLaunch
Tinder-style launch directory for startups and apps
About SwipeToLaunch
SwipeToLaunch is a launch directory built around one mechanic: swipe. New startups, SaaS products, dev tools and apps appear one card at a time, and visitors swipe right if they like the idea and left if they don't. Every swipe is a 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
Paid plans, one payment with no renewal: Ship $9 (live today, no badge, permanent followed link), Boost $19 (adds 7 days first in the deck and at the top of the board) and Spotlight $29 (30 days first and pinned on the home page, plus a permanent gold tick)
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
Developers and agents get REST, MCP and Markdown access: see https://swipetolaunch.com/developers for the docs.
