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.

Launch counts and hit rates swing a lot by weekday.

Launched on Oct 17 (the latest complete UTC day) or listed since the previous run (IPO), ranked by current traction. Product Hunt launches all list at 07:01 UTC; their traction has had at most one or two daily updates. 39 matches. Spam giveaways excluded.

Mixed sources. Traction is Product Hunt votes (PH) or Show HN points (HN) — not the same unit, and PH has ~7× the launches. So each source is ranked on its own and the two are alternated (PH #1, HN #1, PH #2, HN #2, …); the # column is that combined order. Pick a source above to see one source’s full ranking.

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
