DivvLaunches is a product launch and discovery platform where founders submit their products for scheduled launches and builders discover, upvote, and support them.
What is DivvLaunches?
DivvLaunches is a web-based product launch platform that organizes product debuts using a flight metaphor, treating each launch as a flight with a number, gate, and status. It takes submissions from founders and makers, schedules them for public launch days, and lets community members upvote and support products they like. The platform also maintains a weekly winners archive to showcase top-performing launches.
Key Features
- Scheduled launches: Products are listed on an "Upcoming Departures" board with flight numbers (e.g., DL004), gates (e.g., A13), and statuses like scheduled or live.
- Voting on launch day: Voting opens on each product's launch day, allowing builders to upvote and influence which products take off.
- Winners archive: The "Flights of the Week" section archives top launches, though it currently shows no winners until the first launches complete.
- Three-step flight plan: The process is outlined as Book your flight (submit and select date), Take the runway (go live and get upvoted), and Stay airborne (top launches earn visibility, backlinks, and distribution).
- Featured product showcase: The homepage currently highlights ToolPDFs, a free PDF tool suite, as an upcoming scheduled launch.

How does DivvLaunches work?
The platform follows a simple three-step process: first, you book your flight by submitting your product and selecting a launch date. Second, on launch day, your product goes live while builders discover and upvote it. Third, top launches stay airborne, earning continued visibility, backlinks, and distribution beyond the launch day.
