LaunchWakeCan I post my startup on BetaList?
You can share here directly, provided you follow the format. Posts are rarely removed when they lead with substance instead of a pitch.
Why the ban risk is low
- Built for sharing what you made — no promo-specific restrictions beyond the format.
The rules, in plain English
How to post here safely
- Follow the community's stated norms and lead with value.
- Don't post an undisclosed or link-heavy promotion.
Account requirements
- Submit pre-launch or right after launch — 'launched weeks ago or longer' is a documented disqualifier.
- Use a distinct, custom-designed landing page on your own domain with a working signup — templates and free-host subdomains are rejected.
- Plan for the queue: review can take a few weeks and featuring ~2 months; the paid expedite is refunded if rejected.
- You get two features (pre-launch and launch) — space them a few weeks apart.
