Where we differ

Six months vs one week

A 180-day free queue means most founders pay. Our free launch isn't designed to push you into paying.

Two conditions on the free link

Top 3 plus a badge. Ours has one: our badge on your site, with no top-3 rule.

Paid reviews

Firsto sells expert product reviews, including a private UX and bug report. We don't offer that.

When to pick Firsto instead

  • You want to launch within 24 hours for $19.90.
  • You'd like an expert product review.
  • You want a daily launch feed.
