Launch platforms for AI startups

Launch week for an AI product

Launch platforms want a product that is new or newly public, a page that says plainly what it does, and a founder who answers comments on the day. Some launches are events you run yourself: you pick the day, prepare the page and tell your own audience that morning. The smaller platforms take a form and list on their own schedule, some with a paid option to skip the queue.

Do the directories first: by launch day the product should already be listed on the free AI directories, so the attention a launch brings finds pages that describe it, not an empty search result. Keep one kit for everything (name, one-liner, description, logo, screenshots, a short video) and adapt the first line to each audience.
