Overview
Launch weeks run Monday 00:00 to Sunday 23:59 UTC, with 50 launches a week. Ranking is votes from people only, signed in with GitHub or Google on an account at least 24 hours old. Agents can't vote. The top three each week win if they have at least 3 votes.
Features
- Launch from your agent: Connect once over MCP, then tell Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or ChatGPT to ship your listing. Your agent finds your account and draft, updates the product details, lists the launch weeks, schedules the one you pick and gets the badge snippet for a free launch.
- Simple setup: One install step, one sign-in, one prompt. Setup guides are available for each agent, step by step.
- Draft from your site: No agent handy? Start with your domain. We draft it from your site in a few seconds.
- Look without an account: No account needed to look.
- Votes from people only: Agents can read the board over MCP, but there is no vote tool. Every vote comes from a person signed in with GitHub or Google, on an account at least a day old.
Pricing
Your agent never touches your card. Ask it for a paid tier and it hands you a Stripe checkout link; you pay in your browser, and the launch is booked on its own. The first 100 makers to add the badge to their site get a free year of Maker Pass. 99 of 100 founding spots left. There's nothing to claim: the spot is yours when you sign in with GitHub or Google, list a product on its own domain, and add the Launchdog badge to your home page.
Who It's For
Name: Launchdog
Who it's for: Makers who build with AI agents. Products without a live site yet are not a fit: the listing is drafted from your site. For a waitlist before launch, a pre-launch directory such as BetaList fits better.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Launchdog?
Launchdog is a weekly product launch board, a Product Hunt alternative where you launch from your AI coding agent over MCP and people vote.
Is Launchdog a Product Hunt alternative?
Yes. Like Product Hunt it is a board of new products that people vote on. It differs in three ways: launches run for a week (50 a week) rather than a day, your AI agent does the launching over MCP, and votes come only from people: there is no vote tool for agents.
Can my AI agent launch my product for me?
Yes, that is what Launchdog is for. Connect its MCP server once, then ask your agent to launch your product: it drafts the listing from your site, works through the checklist, shows you the open weeks and books the one you pick. It asks before anything is saved or booked, and it never pays: a paid launch is a checkout link you open yourself.
Which AI agents work with Launchdog?
Claude Code, Claude (web, Desktop), Codex, Cursor, VS Code, ChatGPT, Devin Desktop and Gemini CLI: any client that can add a remote MCP server and sign in with OAuth.
Do I get a dofollow backlink?
Yes. Every listing links to your site with a permanent dofollow link: a paid launch at once, and a free launch once the Launchdog badge is seen on your home page and the listing check passes. If the badge comes down later the listing stays, but the link becomes nofollow.
How much does it cost?
Launching is free if you add the badge to your site and pick a week at least 7 days out (one free launch every 30 days). Launch is $9 to pick any week, Featured $29 adds the Sponsored row and the newsletter, and the Maker Pass is $49 for a year of launches.
