Launched

Launched.io is a very simple website that works like a gallery of new products. You visit the page, see a grid of recently added startups, and that is basically the whole experience. There are no votes, no comments, no social features, and no community interaction. It is just a straightforward space where you can add your project, get it listed, and move on.

The submission process is easy. You fill out a short form with your product name, a short description, and a link, and your listing goes live. That is all it takes. There are no fees or complicated rules, and you do not need to create an account. In a way, that simplicity is nice. It feels lightweight and fast, like an old-school startup showcase from the early web. You can tell it was made for makers who just want to put something online without dealing with the pressure or competition of big launch platforms.

Still, Launched.io feels a bit too quiet. There is no community behind it, no voting system, and no real way to discover what people actually like. Everything looks the same, and new projects just stack on top of older ones. The lack of categories also makes browsing harder than it should be. A few simple filters, like sorting by type or industry, would make the site much easier to explore. Right now, you mostly scroll until something catches your eye.

It is clear that Launched.io is a niche platform. It does not have the traffic or buzz of places like Product Hunt or even smaller launch sites that encourage feedback. But it does have a certain charm in its simplicity. If you are someone who just wants to have your startup listed somewhere without dealing with marketing noise, this site does that perfectly. You submit your tool, get a link, and you are done.

Launched.io could become more interesting with a few small improvements, like adding categories or letting visitors sort projects by topic. Even a basic tagging system would make the directory feel more alive. Right now, it feels more like a quiet gallery that gets occasional updates rather than an active space for discovery.
