Submit your tool to Earlylaunch

Earlylaunch is a startup directory where founders publish a profile with their product story, stage and links. A free listing goes public after manual review; a one-time payment or the site's widget gets it verified sooner.

Go to the submit page Dofollow link Free after review, or $14.99 once for instant listing

Is Earlylaunch worth it?

A reasonable free listing for early stage products: product website links on live pages carry no rel attribute, so they are followed. The catch is time: the pricing page says free verification can take 60+ days, while the FAQ says 48 to 72 hours, so expect the longer figure. Pay $14.99 only if you need the link live this month.

Who should submit to Earlylaunch?

Suits founders with an MVP, side project or young SaaS who want a profile page and a followed link at no cost. Less useful for mature products, since the site frames itself around early stage startups, and for anyone needing quick results without paying.

What you need before you submit

  • An account (username, full name, email, password)
  • A live product URL
  • A description of the startup, its stage and category
  • Logo and images

How to submit to Earlylaunch

  1. Sign up at earlylaunch.co/signup/
  2. Create the startup profile with story, stage, category and links
  3. Submit for manual review, or pay $14.99 for instant verification
  4. Optionally place the Earlylaunch widget on your site to get verified

Earlylaunch: pros and cons

Pros

  • Followed link to the product website
  • Free option with no badge required
  • One-time payment, no subscription
  • Profiles show stage, category and founding date

Cons

  • Free review can take 60+ days according to the pricing page
  • Conflicting review times between pricing page and FAQ
  • Email and password signup only
  • Traffic figures are self-reported

Tips for Earlylaunch

  • Pick the right stage label (idea, MVP, pre-revenue, scaling), since it shows on the card
  • Write a real story in the description rather than a feature list
  • If you already show badges, the widget route avoids the long wait
