What you actually get
A listing page that goes live on a launch date you pick, with the free lane running 25 slots a week and dates bookable up to a year out. The link is nofollow until you put their badge up and verify it, and the traffic is the site regulars rather than a launch-day spike.

How to submit to Pro Launch

  1. Sign in
    Google or GitHub in one click. The email form carries a Cloudflare Turnstile; the SSO buttons do not.
  2. Project info
    Name, website, a tagline capped at 160 characters, a rich-text description, a 1:1 logo under 1MB and an optional 16:9 product image. An Autofill with AI button will draft the lot from your URL.
  3. Details
    Up to three categories from about sixty, exactly five tags typed into a chip input, the platforms it runs on, a pricing model and optional GitHub and X links.
  4. Pick a launch date
    Weekly waves, 25 free slots each, bookable up to 365 days out. Everything launches at 08:00 UTC.
  5. Review and submit
    A summary page with live Google, X and LinkedIn previews, then Submit Project. The listing is created immediately and sits as Scheduled.

Gotchas

The free listing links to you with rel=nofollow until their badge is live on your site and their verifier has found it.
The publisher name on the listing is whatever your Google account is called, so an account named after the product prints the product as the maker.

Let your agent submit to Pro Launch
