Conditional free route launch-board

Researched from public pages — no submission was run · sources read 2026-09-25. Rules change — recheck the platform's own pages before submitting.

What the free route requires

  • Free Launch is $0 but limited to 5 slots per day with up to a 180-day scheduling window — a queue.
  • Free-tier dofollow backlink is conditional: only if the project ranks Top 3 in its daily ranking.

Requirements

  • Account required — /projects/submit redirects to sign-in (Google or GitHub OAuth shown).
  • All launches happen at 8:00 AM UTC; a limited number launch each day.
  • Tech products/projects broadly (AI, SaaS, design tools, e-commerce, etc.).

Prepare before opening the form

  • Account (Google/GitHub).
  • Project name, logo, tagline, description, categories.
  • A launch-date strategy: free slots schedule up to 180 days out.
  • Vote mobilization plan if you want the free-tier dofollow (Top 3 daily).
  • Plan choice: Free / Premium $9.9 (guaranteed dofollow, 12 premium slots/day, earlier dates, homepage feature for one year) / Sponsor $149.

Workflow

  1. Sign in, then open https://fastlaunch.io/projects/submit.
  2. Choose Free or Premium ($9.9) launch.
  3. Complete the submission and pick a launch date (free: next available shown on site, e.g. '5 slots').
  4. On launch day (8:00 AM UTC), compete in 'Top Projects Launching Today' — Top 3 earns the free dofollow; Premium's is guaranteed.

Watch for

  • Free-tier dofollow depends on a Top-3 daily finish — not guaranteed.
  • Free scheduling can push months out (180-day window, 5 slots/day); Premium's earlier dates are the upsell.
  • Sponsor is a $149 one-year homepage spot — separate product, not a listing requirement.
  • Same DirEasy boilerplate family as devtoolsdir.com — shared launch mechanics.
  • After sponsor payment you must 'contact [email protected]' — manual fulfillment.

What counts as live

The project appears in fastlaunch.io's daily launch listing on its scheduled date with a public detail page; Premium listings also show on the homepage feature slot.

Not verified

  • Submit form fields behind sign-in.
  • Exact free wait time at current queue depth.
  • Whether votes can be solicited externally without restriction.
