LaunchLog review
LaunchLog calls itself an 'AI Startup Roast & Build in Public' site. Founders add an idea or product, get an AI-written roast and a short analysis, and appear on a leaderboard ranked by votes that can also show revenue and MRR. In its own entry on the site, LaunchLog describes itself as a 'Launch platform for early startups with the purpose of providing validation, visibility and backlinks'.

Our verdict
LaunchLog is a smaller domain (DR 18), so treat it as a supporting listing. Its listing links are nofollow, so the value is referral traffic and discovery rather than link equity. Listing is free.
Best for Indie founders at the idea, building or just-launched stage who want public feedback and votes rather than a followed link, and who are comfortable with a deliberately harsh AI roast.
What a listing gets you
- An idea page showing founder, 'EST.' date, status and vote count
- An AI 'System Roast' plus an analysis of target audience, value proposition, revenue model and competitors
- Total revenue, MRR and growth figures if a revenue source is connected
- A place on the vote-ranked leaderboard (tabs include High Earners, Trending and New Comers) and in the /ideas and /roasts lists
- A nofollow Visit Site link to your website
Pricing, timing and links
- Pricing
- The 'Add Idea & Get Roasted' form has no payment step. Sidebar ad slots are sold separately, shown on the site as '$25 for 3 months'.
- Links
- On every idea page we checked (Submitwell, SayWall, BuiltByMe, SEOAuthori, Sprite-AI, Agent Insight), the Visit Site link carries rel=nofollow and a ref=LaunchLog parameter. The site does not describe any way to get a followed link.
Before you submit
- Sign in to submit (email and password, or Google)
- Startup name (required) and a status: Idea, Building or Launched
- One-sentence short description; website URL is optional
- Optional: Reddit username, X handle, and a read-only Stripe or Dodo Payments API key to show revenue
- Submissions openYES
How to get approved
- Add your website URL even though the form marks it optional, because it is the only outbound link on your idea page.
- Connect a read-only Stripe or Dodo Payments key if you have revenue, so revenue and MRR show and you can appear in the High Earners leaderboard tab.
- Set the status (Idea, Building or Launched) to match where you are, since it shows as a label next to your entry on the leaderboard.
- Expect a sarcastic write-up: the roast page says 'Sorry if we are too harsh, but that's the point.'
