Why makers pick StarTap over TinyLaunch
- No date to wait for. Add your site and you're on the leaderboard in about a minute.
- Your launch never closes. When a launch week ends, so does the race. StarTap's board is always on, so a late push still counts.
- More ways to climb. Tap, buy Sources that earn stars while you're away, invite other makers and rally fans. It's a game, not a vote count.
- Fans don't need an account. Anyone with your link can tap for you.
When TinyLaunch is the better fit
- A launch week puts you next to a small set of products, which can mean more eyes per product.
- It's a focused maker community that likes trying new things.
Best of all: you don't have to choose. StarTap is free and takes a minute, so list here today and keep your TinyLaunch plans.
About TinyLaunch
TinyLaunch is a launch platform for small makers. Free launches take the earliest open date, often weeks out, and products are ranked by upvotes during their launch.
About StarTap
StarTap is a free product directory you play like a game. Makers add their website, tap a Star to earn stars, and spend them on Sources that earn more while they're away. Projects rank on a public leaderboard, every project page links to its site, and anyone can tap for a project they like without signing up.
Frequently asked questions
Is StarTap a TinyLaunch alternative?
Yes. Both are friendly to small makers and free, but StarTap is live right away and doesn't end when a launch week does.
Should I list on both StarTap and TinyLaunch?
Usually, yes. They don't compete for the same moment. Add your site to StarTap today, it's live in a minute, and keep it there while you wait for or run your TinyLaunch listing.
Is StarTap really free?
Yes. Listing, playing and verifying cost nothing, and there's no paid tier that buys a higher rank. Stars can't be bought.
