Before you choose
Start with the pricing model
Use the Free plan field to find a no-cost starting point. Paid entry prices range from $5.99 per month for 1000.tools to $99 per month for BetaList, while Hacker News and Peerlist list a free plan.
Check whether the listed price is monthly, annual or a trial offer before you commit. UpViral lists $79 per month on annual billing.
Match the launch page work
If you need a public product page, review the Launch page builder field. A custom domain can help keep that page under your own web address, so check the Custom domain field alongside it.
Choose the waitlist path
Use the Waitlist management field for signup flows, and the Launch checklists field when you want a structured set of launch tasks. Directory submissions can add a separate discovery step to your plan.
Check where it runs
Confirm the platform before signing up. The tools in this category may run on the web, through an API, on iOS or on Android. An API option can suit a workflow that connects launch activity to another service.
Use a trial when available
A free trial can let you review a paid workflow before subscribing. The pricing notes show a 15-day trial for EarlyParrot and 14-day trials for Prefinery, UpViral and Viral Loops.
