What's a launch week?
It’s a week where a company announces a new feature every day. See examples here.
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
How Supabase grew from 0 to 50K+ GitHub stars
What types of companies is it for?
Both solo makers, early-stage and late-stage companies!
Take the Mega Launch Week for example — when 22 developer-first companies launched together.
Companies of different sizes participated, from solo makers (KeyHippo) to 100-person teams (Pinecone).

Do you need to ship a new feature every day?
No. To quote Ant Wilson, CTO of Supabase:
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
The history and methodology of Supabase Launch Week
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.

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.
