Sponsor makers at work
Think of sponsorship as taking a booth at a maker fair: you pay for a space, and we keep it separate from the votes that let the community rank launches.
Each sponsored space carries a Sponsored label with rel="sponsored" markup. It lives apart from the rankings and never shifts votes.
One founder holds each space for 7 days. When you book, your run starts when the last one ends. You'll see the exact dates here and again before you pay.
Top page space $49
Your company sits in the Sponsored slot on our homepage.
This space is open now: 24 Oct 2026 to 30 Oct 2026.
Category space $19
Your company appears at the top of a category page where people browse launches in your space. The slot is separate from the ranked list below.
Category space dates shift with your listing's category. Pick a listing first to see when it runs.
Newsletter space $29
Your company lands in the Sponsored block of one week's newsletter. If that issue gets skipped, your spot moves to the next newsletter we send.
This space is open now: 24 Oct 2026 to 30 Oct 2026.
How to sponsor
When you add your business to the site, pick a launch plan and add a sponsorship. Already listed here? Sign in to sponsor that launch. Your space goes live on the date shown for it.
Questions
- Does a sponsorship move my launch up the rankings?
- No. Your sponsored space is kept apart from votes. The community votes stay unaffected and set the ranking order on their own.
- What if I want to sponsor but have not launched yet?
- List your business first, then add a sponsorship when you choose your launch plan. You can also sign in after launching to sponsor that same launch.
- How do I see how my sponsorship performed?
- After you pay, check your sponsorships page. It shows view and click counts for each space, and tells you when it ran or when it is scheduled.
