What the free route requires
- Free plan is capped at 18 slots per week with launches batched every Monday at midnight UTC
- Free plan only yields a dofollow backlink if the project finishes top 3 or the Shipybara badge is displayed; otherwise the link is not guaranteed dofollow

- Account sign-in (Google or GitHub) required to submit

Prepare before opening the form
