LaunchPact is a pact network for Product Hunt launches — not a launch platform itself. Founders form mutual pacts to support each other on launch day. Browse products you'd genuinely back, pledge support, and when backing is mutual, you've got a pact — with screenshot verification on launch day.

How does a pact work?

You back a founder's launch and they back yours. When both sides pledge, the pact locks in. On launch day, pact partners upvote each other on Product Hunt and upload screenshot proof so both sides stay accountable.

How does LaunchPact verify upvotes?

When launch day arrives, pact partners upvote each other on Product Hunt and upload a screenshot as proof. LaunchPact's AI verifies the screenshot instantly. Partners who don't verify lose trust score.

How many pacts should I form before launch day?

As many as you can. Every pact is a founder committed to upvoting you on launch day — the more mutual pacts you have, the more momentum you stack. Start early and keep backing products you'd genuinely use.

When should I launch on Product Hunt?

Tuesday through Thursday see the most traffic but are also the most competitive. Sunday and Monday are softer. Schedule at least four weeks out so you have time to list your launch, form pacts, and prepare your assets.

Can I join LaunchPact if I've never launched on Product Hunt before?

Yes. Many first-time launchers use LaunchPact to meet founders and form pacts before their debut. Back products you believe in, collect pledges for yours, and show up for each other on launch day.

What is a trust score?

Every founder on LaunchPact has a trust score based on pact history — honour your pacts and it grows; miss verification windows or break commitments and it drops. It helps you spot reliable launch partners before you commit.

How it works

From listing to launch day glory in 5 steps

List your launch, back the founders whose products you'd genuinely upvote, and form pacts when they'd back yours too. On launch day, you show up for each other — verified by screenshot, so nobody can flake.

1
Step 01
List your launch
Tell the network when you're hitting Product Hunt. Add your product name, link, tagline, and launch date — you'll appear in the feed of founders launching around the same time as you.
2
Step 02
Back launches you'd actually upvote
Browse other founders launching in the next few weeks. Open the ones that catch your eye, take a real look at the product, and back the ones you'd genuinely upvote. That's a pledge — your one-way commitment to show up on their launch day.
3
Step 03
Form a pact when it's mutual
The founder gets a notification with a link to your product. If they'd back yours too, they accept — and a pact forms. You're both now locked in to upvote each other on launch day. Genuine interest on both sides, no awkward asks.
4
Step 04
Upvote each other, verified
When your pact partner launches, we send you a reminder. You head to Product Hunt, upvote them, snap a screenshot, and upload it — AI verifies it in seconds. They do the same when your turn comes. Verification keeps everyone honest, so nobody can quietly flake. Partners can optionally verify a real comment too — never required for the pact.
5
Step 05
Launch with real momentum
Early upvotes are what push a product into Product Hunt's top of the day. Stack a handful of pacts and you'll launch with momentum from founders who genuinely believe in what you built. Honour your pacts and your trust score grows — making the next ones even easier to land.

The launch is one day. The upside isn't.

Most founders only optimize for launch day. List on LaunchPact and the benefits start the moment you go live — before a single upvote lands.
