LaunchPact

Launching on Product Hunt alone is hard: early upvotes decide whether a product reaches the top of the day, asking friends for votes feels awkward, and Discord or Reddit upvote groups are chaotic and full of people who flake. LaunchPact is a network of founders who launch on Product Hunt and show up for each other on launch day. You list your launch with its name, link, tagline and date, and you appear in a feed of founders launching in the same weeks as you. Browse those launches, open the products that catch your eye, and back the ones you would genuinely upvote. Backing is a pledge: a one-way commitment to show up on that founder's launch day. The founder is notified with a link to your product, and if they would back yours too, they accept and a pact forms. When a pact partner launches, LaunchPact reminds you 24 hours before. You go to Product Hunt, upvote them, take a screenshot and upload it, and AI verifies it in seconds. They do the same when your turn comes, so every upvote is real and nobody can quietly flake. Partners can optionally verify a genuine comment too, but it is never required. Honouring your pacts raises your trust score, which makes the next pacts easier to land, and you can filter the feed by category and trust score. Listing is free and includes 10 pacts per launch. Activating a launch costs $34 one-time and unlocks unlimited pacts, an indexed public launch page and a Launch Day Report that shows how your launch stacked up, with action items. No bots and no bought votes: just founders backing products they believe in.
