Product launches tools

These four tools help makers get a new product in front of early users. They differ in launch rhythm, cost and who they serve.

Penguin Startup is a daily directory where founders list for free, and visitors browse by sector. Uneed also runs daily, with community voting and a paid Skip-the-Waiting-Line option. LaunchKoala releases weekly on Mondays, and its Launch sooner option costs $9. Builtbyindies targets indie makers with small weekly cohorts and one-time paid spotlights from $9.
