LiftOff
Your launch pad for what's next.
LiftOff (lift-off.sh) is a product launch platform for makers. Founders and indie builders can launch new products, get discovered, earn upvotes, and build momentum with a community that loves what is next. The focus is on launches that stay visible after release day rather than a single 24 hour spike.
What LiftOff Is For
LiftOff is built for makers who want more than a one day burst of traffic. It combines launch visibility, category discovery, maker profiles, upvotes, comments, and recurring promotion so a product keeps working after it ships. Launches move through leaderboards, searchable profiles, archives, and a Hall of Fame, so strong products keep earning attention instead of vanishing into a feed.
Typical users:
- Indie hackers and solo founders shipping their first product
- Small teams launching a new tool, app, or SaaS
- Makers who want honest feedback and lasting discovery
- Early adopters looking for new tools before everyone else
Key Features
- Public launches with screenshots, positioning, pricing model, and category
- Upvotes, saves, and comments from a maker first community
- Daily, weekly, and monthly leaderboards that reward momentum
- Category browsing across Marketing, FinTech, Security, Web Development, Generative AI, Data Analytics, AI Agents, SaaS, Productivity, and more
- Searchable maker profiles and product pages that stay live after launch
- Hall of Fame and archives so top launches remain discoverable
- Fuel, a loyalty style reward system that turns activity into visibility and savings
Launch Plans
- Free (free, forever): Homepage display on launch, standard review queue, badge required on your site, do follow backlink only if you hit the top 5 daily ranking
- Featured (9€): Permanent ribbon, homepage spotlight, no badge required, permanent do follow backlink, instant approval and faster queue
- Boost (29€): Boosted visual treatment sitewide, no badge required, permanent do follow backlink, instant approval, launch tomorrow with no queue, +25 Fuel, dedicated social posts
- All-In (49€): Everything in Boost and Featured combined, priority over Featured, SEO and AEO optimised product page, a dedicated SEO blog post aimed at competitor traffic, an extra +25 Fuel, and a discount on future advertising
Advertising
- Home Page Spotlight (49€/month): Large format placement near the top of the homepage, first view visibility before the feed
- Sidebar Card (39€/month): Native placement beside product, profile, and category pages for steady awareness
- Footer Spotlight (25€/month): Persistent bottom of site placement for brand recall and retargeting
The recommended setup is to pick a submit tier for the launch, then layer on a weekly placement when guaranteed visibility is needed.
Fuel Rewards
Fuel is LiftOff's loyalty style reward system. Makers earn it by completing dashboard tasks and joining platform events, then spend it to boost products up the rankings or reduce the cost of supported launch options. Lifetime Fuel drives a four tier system, and spending does not reduce long term progress:
- Runway (0+): ×1 boost value
- Ascent (1,000+): ×1.2 boost value
- Orbit (3,000+): ×1.5 boost value
- Starfall (7,500+): ×2 boost value
