Overview
Founder CRM

SwipeToLaunch
- Who it's for
- Makers and indie hackers launching a new startup, SaaS or app, founders looking for a Product Hunt alternative with honest approval scores, and visitors who want to discover new products one card at a time.
- Problem it solves
- Upvote-race launch boards reward whoever brings the most votes on launch day, so raw counts say little about whether people actually like an idea, and every product competes for the same front page.
