What kinds of startups can submit?
LaunchFree.io welcomes every legal product at every stage. You don't need to be live to submit — pre-launch products, waitlists, and early access products are all welcome. Here's what belongs on the runway:
SaaS tools, mobile apps, web apps, newsletters, communities, developer tools, AI products, productivity tools, marketing tools, content platforms, side projects, MVPs, and anything in between. If it's real, legal, and you built it — it belongs here.
Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to submit my startup?
Nothing. Zero. Free. The core listing on LaunchFree.io has always been free and always will be. We make money through optional sponsored placements — never by charging founders to be discovered.
How long does the review process take?
We aim to review every submission within 24 hours. We manually check each submission to ensure it meets The Runway Standard — real products, real founders, legal businesses.
Can I submit a product that isn't live yet?
Yes. Pre-launch, waitlist, beta, and early access products are all welcome. LaunchFree.io is a great way to build early momentum and get your first signups before your official launch.
Can I update my listing after it goes live?
Yes. Email us at hello@launchfree.io with your updated details and we'll update your listing.
Do I need a social media account or following to submit?
No. You don't need followers, a Twitter account, or any existing audience. LaunchFree.io is built for founders at every stage — including day one.
