About this shelf
Launchpads are directories and launch sites you submit to: Product Hunt-class launches, review sites, AI directories, and smaller boards that still send a week of traffic. This shelf is distribution, not tools you design with. If you came here to find a component library, you are on the wrong page.
We list them because makers keep a spreadsheet of “where do I post this” and that spreadsheet goes stale. Featured picks are the boards we would still bother with. The grid is the rest of the catalogued launch and review destinations.
A launchpad is not a strategy. One honest Product Hunt-style launch plus a few niche directories beats twenty spam submissions. Read each site’s rules. Some want a video. Some want a free plan. Some will ban you for upvoting yourself.
Tool pages on this shelf are typed as websites in structured data because they are destinations, not installable software. That is intentional. Use this page as a checklist, then go back to the category that matches the product you are launching.
Questions
- Is Product Hunt listed?
- If it is in the catalog it appears here. This shelf is launch and review destinations, not a ranking of your product.
- Should I submit to every directory?
- No. Pick a few that match your audience. Mass submission looks like spam and wastes a day.
- Why are these in a design-tool directory?
- Because the same people who find tools here also need a place to launch them. It is a distribution shelf.
- Do you guarantee traffic?
- No. We list destinations. Results depend on the product, timing, and the site’s current rules.
