What are the main benefits?
Launch weeks have been great for both aligning the team and getting traction within the community. — Rory Wilding, COO, Supabase
Launch weeks are high peaks (…) They create buzz and excitement around the product. — Zeno Rocha, CEO and co-founder, Resend
We did 3 launch weeks in 2024, and each one had a meaningful impact on every aspect of the business. If you’re considering ever doing it – do it. — Brayden Wilmoth, Founder and CTO, Outerbase

Do you need to ship a new feature every day?
Do you need to ship a new feature every day?
No. To quote Ant Wilson, CTO of Supabase:We define a launch week as a week of announcing new features.It doesn’t have to last 5 days, though — it could last more or less than 5 days.In 2024, the shortest launch week lasted 3 days.The longest? 6 days. It was Unkey’s Launch Week.
One of our learnings from previous launch weeks was to no longer ship to prod on the day of the launch itself (…) It’s ideal to get all the major integrations done a week early. — Ant Wilson, CTO, Supabase

Is it an alternative to Product Hunt?
Is it an alternative to Product Hunt?
No. Product Hunt definitely is a great place to launch dev-first products — a place where many launched successfully: Supabase, Resend, and Warp, to name a few.This project is different thought for three main reasons:
- It focuses on the dev tools space
- Filtered out by default
- Spam-free by design
