🚀 Introducing LaunchList v2.
Find out who's interested in your product before you build it.
Describe your idea in a sentence, publish a waitlist page, and let the people who join bring their friends.
Here's everything in v2, and what's coming next 🧵
Building something with a waitlist page?
Reply with the link. We'll tell you the one thing we'd change first.
Most first waitlists are a Google Form, a Tally form or a Mailchimp signup.
All three work. Each one breaks somewhere different, and you usually find out on launch day.
Here's where each one fails, and what to do about it 🧵
Which one should you use?
• Just counting interest for a few weeks: Google Forms
• Form on your own site: Tally
• Emailing the list before launch: Mailchimp
• People should see their place and share a link: a waitlist tool
Exact settings for each, copy-paste templates, and how to move your list without losing anyone's signup date:

Save this for your next launch.
Launching on Product Hunt for a backlink? Its links are nofollow, so they don't help your SEO.
These free startup directories do give you a dofollow backlink, each checked on its real listings. No signup:

💬 LaunchList now has an official app for Slack. Every new waitlist signup posts to a channel you choose, plus milestones and a daily digest, without flooding it on launch day.
On the Launch and Grow plans: getlaunchlist.com/plugins/sl…
⚡ LaunchList now has an official app on Zapier.
Your waitlist can talk to the rest of your tools, in both directions. Here is how it works.
🔑 Setup takes one key.
In LaunchList, open Embed & API, then Developers, then API keys, and press "Create a key for Zapier". Paste it into Zapier, pick a trigger or an action, and choose your project.
👉 The Zapier app is on the Launch plan and the Grow plan. On the Free plan and the Collect plan, webhooks still send your events to Zapier.
Set it up here: getlaunchlist.com/plugins/za…
🔭 We're not done.
Two things we're working toward:
💳 Payments: Take deposits and pre-orders, paid directly to your own Stripe account.
🧠 A launch-aware AI: One that understands your audience, spots what needs attention, and suggests what to do next.
🎉 LaunchList v2 is here.
Start free with up to 100 contacts.
