SpotMy.app is a paid launch platform that gives micro-SaaS products a guaranteed 10-minute homepage spotlight for a flat price, then keeps them listed in its directory forever.
What is SpotMy.app?
SpotMy.app is a web-based launch platform designed for Indie Hackers and micro-SaaS developers. It takes a product's URL, title, description, logo, and category, and places it in a rotating spotlight at the top of the homepage with a guaranteed 10-minute airing. After the spotlight ends, the product moves to a permanent directory entry organized by category, so it continues to get exposure. The platform handles payments via Stripe and tracks clicks and visitor analytics through Umami.
Key Features
- Guaranteed spotlight slot — Every claim gets a live 10-minute homepage placement; when the queue is empty, the spotlight starts instantly.
- Permanent directory listing — Your product remains in SpotMy.app's categorized directory long after the spotlight airs.
- No bidding wars — The platform uses a one-spot, one-price model with no auctions or paid placement tiers, unlike typical launch directories.
- Category organization — Listings are filed under categories such as Utilities, AI & Bots, Services, and Showcase so the right audience finds them.
- Click tracking — Past spotlight airings show click counts (e.g., 20, 16, 14 clicks), giving you measurable exposure data.
- Re-entry anytime — You can jump back into the spotlight whenever you want, as long as a slot is available, rather than waiting for a scheduled launch day.
Who is it for?
- Indie hackers — Launch a new micro-SaaS to a targeted audience without waiting for an upvote-based launch event.
- Micro-SaaS founders — Get a quick burst of homepage traffic from a 10-minute spotlight, then rely on the permanent listing for ongoing referral visits.
- Service providers — List a web service or tool in the Services category to attract clients even after the spotlight ends.
What can you do with SpotMy.app?
- Claim instant exposure: When the queue is empty, you can activate the spotlight immediately and start receiving clicks within seconds.
- Showcase your product long-term: Submit your product once and keep it discoverable in the directory indefinitely at no extra cost.
- Track performance: See how many clicks your listing generates from the spotlight and from directory visits.
- Browse community launches: View past and current spotlights to see which products and categories perform best.
How does it work?
You fill out a product submission with a URL, title, description, logo, and category, then pay a flat fee via Stripe. If the queue is empty, your product instantly appears at the top of the homepage for a 10-minute live spotlight. When the countdown ends, the product is archived in its category and remains listed forever.
Pricing
SpotMy.app uses a paid model with a single flat price per spotlight claim — there are no tiers, auctions, or recurring fees mentioned on the page. The exact dollar amount is not displayed on the homepage.
Alternatives
- Product Hunt — a larger, community-voted launch platform where products compete for visibility through upvotes rather than a rotating spotlight.
- BetaList — a directory of early-stage startups that offers email-based exposure rather than a homepage spotlight queue.
FAQ
How long does the spotlight last?
Each spotlight airing lasts exactly 10 minutes. After that, your product is moved to the permanent directory listing.
Is there a queue?
The page currently shows "Queue is empty! Instant spotlight available!" meaning you can claim the spot without waiting. If another product is airing, you'll wait for its 10-minute slot to finish before yours shows.
Do I stay listed after the spotlight?
Yes, your product remains in the SpotMy.app directory forever, even after your 10-minute spotlight ends. The directory is organized by category and stays publicly accessible.
Can I use SpotMy.app multiple times?
Yes, the page says you can "jump back into the spotlight whenever you want," so you can claim additional spotlight slots for the same product whenever you need more exposure.
