Stackboo is a weekly launch board and curated product directory for AI and SaaS tools, where indie hackers and solo founders submit their products for free and listings are ordered by community votes rather than by ad spend. At the time of writing the directory listed 215 products, with 58 added by founders in the previous seven days.
What is Stackboo?
Stackboo is a launch platform and product directory built by founder Boya for indie hackers and solo founders shipping AI products. A maker submits a product name, a short pitch, a logo and one or more category tags, and Stackboo publishes it onto a numbered weekly board — the page shown covers Week 45 of 2026 with 42 launches — alongside a permanent tool page, category listings and an all-time leaderboard. Listings pass a human review step before going live, and an AI prefill step drafts the submission details from the product's website.
What makes Stackboo stand out?
- Free submission — posting a product costs nothing; the site states "Free to submit" and "Ranked by votes, not budgets" as its core rules.
- Vote-weighted ordering — each card shows a running vote count (▲1, ▲4 and so on), and the leaderboard sorts by accumulated votes rather than payment.
- AI prefill — the submission form can populate listing details automatically from the product's own website.
- Human review — a person checks each submission before it appears on the board.
- Numbered weekly boards — launches are grouped by ISO-style week and year (for example Week 45, 2026), with a per-week launch count and a link to the full leaderboard.
- 37 category filters — AI Video (31 products), Content Creation (29), AI Marketing & SEO (27), AI Productivity (27) and AI Image Generation (23) are among the largest buckets.
- Inline sponsored rows — a paid placement slots a product into the ranked list as a row labelled Sponsored, priced from 15 dollars for 7 days.
- Weekly newsletter — one email per week covering new launches and the top of the previous week's board, with no ads and one-click unsubscribe; signup needs only an email address.
Who should use Stackboo?
- Solo founders and indie hackers launching an AI tool: submit a product to get a permanent listing, a shot at the weekly board and a vote tally they can point to.
- Tool-hunting buyers and researchers: scan the current week's launches, filter by category such as AI Coding or AI Voice & Audio, and use the leaderboard to see what has sustained traction.
- Newsletter subscribers: receive a single weekly digest of new AI products instead of monitoring launch feeds daily.
- Founders who want distribution done for them: the pricing page offers a service that submits a product to 30 directories on the founder's behalf.
What can you do with Stackboo?
- Launch and get indexed: submit a product with a one-line pitch, logo and categories to appear on the weekly board and in category pages such as Content Creation or Developer Products.
- Collect and compare votes: track a product's position against other launches from the same week, and check the leaderboard for the all-time ranking.
- Research a niche before building: browse a category's product count — 15 AI Agents & Automation listings, 13 AI Voice & Audio, 10 LLM APIs & Infrastructure — to see how crowded a segment already is.
- Read buyer-adjacent guides: six guide pages at the time of writing cover topics such as free AI tools for solo founders and automating a one-person company with AI.
How does Stackboo work?
Submission is a three-step flow: the founder enters a product website, AI prefill drafts the listing, and a human reviewer approves it before it is published to the current week's board and its categories. Once live, the product collects votes, which determine its position on the weekly board and feed into the leaderboard.
Pricing
Submitting a product is free. The only paid placement described on the page is an inline sponsored row among the ranked products, starting at 15 dollars for 7 days. A separate paid service on the pricing page submits a product to 30 directories. No subscription tiers are listed.
FAQ
Is Stackboo free to submit?
Yes. The site lists "Free to submit" as a core rule and ranks products by votes rather than budget. Paid options exist only for promotion: an inline sponsored row among the ranked products starting at 15 dollars for 7 days, and a directory-submission service.
How are products ranked on Stackboo?
Ranking is vote-based. Every card carries an upvote count, and the weekly board orders launches by those votes. The sponsored row is the one exception — it is explicitly labelled Sponsored and sits inside the list rather than on top of the vote ranking.
Who runs Stackboo?
Stackboo was built by Boya, who describes himself as the founder and says he replies to founders on X daily and accepts launch submissions by message. The site is positioned around indie hackers and solo founders rather than large vendors.
Does Stackboo have a newsletter?
Yes. It sends one email a week listing the AI products that launched that week plus the top of the previous week's board. The email carries no ads, requires only an email address, and can be cancelled with one click.
