Solo Launches is a free, maker-friendly platform for indie founders to list and launch their SaaS products, gaining visibility, traffic, and early traction from a community of builders and early adopters.
What is Solo Launches?
Solo Launches is a lightweight launchpad where solo founders and indie hackers submit their products for free, choose a launch slot, and get a do-follow backlink. The platform takes your product name, description, and logo, then presents it to a focused audience who can like, comment, and visit. It runs entirely on the web and is built for simplicity — no complex forms, just a two-click submission.
Key Features
- Free listing — Submit your product at no cost and get a permanent do-follow link from a high-DR directory.
- Featured spot — Reserve a prominent slot at the top of the page for $19, with a logo, larger display, and priority visibility.
- Launch scheduling — Pick a future launch date from available slots; a live countdown timer shows time until the next launch period (UTC).
- Community engagement — Each listing receives likes, comments, and a “by” mention linking to the maker’s profile — fostering real feedback.
- Weekly winners — Every week, the top performers (by community support and traffic) earn awards (e.g., Golden Rocket, Silver Spark, Bronze Boost) with permanent badges on their listing.
- Launch archive — Past launches remain browsable, building a searchable history of indie products.
- Category tagging — Products are categorized (e.g., Marketing & Sales, Productivity, SaaS & Tools) for easy discovery.
Who is it for?
- Indie hackers and solo founders — Launch a new SaaS or side project to get early user feedback and validation.
- MVP builders — List a minimum viable product in seconds to test demand without a marketing budget.
