OpenHunts alternatives: 19 launch platforms to try

OpenHunts (openhunts.com) launches a limited number of products every Monday at 8:00 AM UTC. At the time of writing (September 2026), the free launch has 20 slots a week and a queue of about 60 weeks, which you can skip by adding its badge; the free dofollow backlink goes to the top 3. Premium Launch is $9.90 (shown reduced from $19): launch next Monday, no badge, guaranteed dofollow backlink. Highlight is $20 a week (shown reduced from $59) at demand-based rates. It publishes metrics verified by PostHog: 108,262 visits over about 6 months.

LaunchRanked is also weekly. The difference is the link rule: ours is followed for any approved listing while our badge is on your site, with no top-3 condition, and no plan buys it.

Where we differ

Badge to skip

OpenHunts lets you skip a 60-week queue by adding its badge. Our badge doesn't move you up a queue; it only decides whether your product page link is followed.

Very cheap paid launch

At $9.90, OpenHunts Premium is cheaper than our Boost. If you'd pay anyway, it's good value.

Numbers in the open

OpenHunts publishes visits, pageviews and users. That's a practice more launch sites should follow.

When to pick OpenHunts instead

  • You'll pay a few dollars for a guaranteed dofollow launch.
  • You like its published traffic numbers.
  • You want a Twitter or newsletter shoutout (top 3 on Premium).
