The bidding loop

Three moves repeat for as long as your product stays listed.

  1. 01

    Outbid for the spot

    Open on a category board for $8 with a $2 step, or go straight for the Global Board at $20 with a $5 step. Whoever bids highest holds the rank — the page updates in real time.

    Collect verified traffic

    Rank visibility turns into clicks. Every referral is hashed and only counts once a visitor stays on your page for three seconds, so what you see is real interest, not bots.

    Defend or reclaim it

    Set an Auto-Defend budget and the system counter-bids for you when someone tries to steal your rank. If you do get dethroned, a reclaim link is waiting with the exact amount pre-filled.

Built for the long game

The mechanics that keep a rank worth holding onto.

Two ranks, one listing

Every product holds a category rank and can graduate to the Global Board — top three on any category qualify automatically.

Auto-Defend budgets

Cap what you are willing to spend, from $50 to $250, and let the system hold your rank while you build.

Timed defend shields

12, 24, or 48-hour locks that make a rank un-stealable for a fixed window, regardless of what anyone bids.

Guaranteed impressions

Buy a delivery target and get an automatic refund or credit if we do not hit it — no support ticket needed.

Questions founders actually ask

Bidding, shields, traffic, and auto-defend, in plain terms.

LaunchRank (launchrank.tech) is a live leaderboard exchange for indie founders and startup teams. You bid to hold top rank, which puts your product in front of visitors browsing the board and sends verified referral traffic back to your site.
