LAUNCH·INDEX

All launches

Every launch is a stock: its traction is its votes, its sector is its category, and LNCH is the whole market. How it works

Data as of Oct 18, 2026, 12:36 PM UTC · traction last updated Oct 18, 13:29 UTC · updates about once a day

Traction is early-adopter votes (Product Hunt) or points (Show HN), not usage. It stops updating about 31–36 hours after launch on Product Hunt and 7 days on Show HN. Categories come from keyword rules (about 70–75% accurate). Nothing is estimated.

Traction = current votes (PH) / points (HN) — early-adopter attention, not downloads or usage. Gained = traction gained between the two latest daily ingest runs; Gain % only when the previous traction was 5+. Buzz = comments gained in that interval. “frozen” = no longer tracked, so no current gain. How it works
