LaunchLog is a startup validation platform where founders submit their ideas to receive AI-generated roasts, track public metrics, and compete on a leaderboard.
What is LaunchLog?
LaunchLog is a web-based platform that allows startup founders to submit their project ideas and receive automated, humorous critiques called "roasts". The site takes a startup's name, description, logo, and status (Idea, Building, Launched) as input, and produces a public profile page with a roast, vote count, leaderboard rank, and optionally displayed revenue and MRR. It is built and maintained by the user launchlog2026.
Key Features
- AI Startup Roast — Submit your idea and get an instantly generated, brutally honest critique that is visible to the community, often highlighting common startup pitfalls.
- Public Leaderboard — Startups are ranked by votes; additional filters include High Earners, Trending, and New Comers. Each entry shows startup name, founder, status, votes, revenue, and MRR.
- Voting System — Community members can upvote startups, directly affecting their leaderboard position.
- Status Tracking — Founders can set their startup's stage to Idea, Building, or Launched, giving visitors a quick sense of maturity.
- Revenue & MRR Tracking — Founders can report total revenue and monthly recurring revenue, which appear on the leaderboard for those with data.
- Profile Pages — Each startup has a dedicated URL (e.g., /ideas/7) showing its logo, description, links, and all associated metrics.
Who is it for?
- Indie makers — Quickly validate a side project without spending weeks on building; the AI roast provides immediate, unfiltered feedback.
- Early-stage founders — Use the platform to track progress publicly, build accountability, and attract initial visibility.
