Submit your tool to StartupRanked

StartupRanked is a SaaS directory and weekly launch board where products compete for upvotes, with past winners shown on the homepage. Listing is free with an account, and a $29 Premium Launch skips the queue.

Go to the submit page Dofollow link Free with an account, $29 Premium Launch

Is StartupRanked worth it?

Worth a free listing: the Visit Website link on product pages was followed in November 2026, and the cost is an account and a few minutes. Launch traffic is modest, with about one launch in the current week and 774 past launches. Use the free path first. The $29 Premium Launch and $20 newsletter slot (the site says 400+ founders) are optional extras for a launch week push.

Who should submit to StartupRanked?

Suits SaaS founders and indie makers who want a free followed link and a profile with reviews and a ranking. Less useful for products aimed at non technical consumers, or for anyone expecting launch day traffic, since the visitors are mostly other founders.

What you need before you submit

  • A live product URL
  • Product name, category and short description

How to submit to StartupRanked

  1. Sign in or sign up at startupranked.com
  2. Go to /submit (Add Product)
  3. Choose whether to list in the directory or schedule a Monday launch

  5. Share the page during launch week if you launch
