Alternative to Product Hunt

A Product Hunt alternative for makers without an audience

Product Hunt works best for makers who arrive with an audience. ShipX is a weekly launch board for makers with fewer than 1000 followers on X, so a first launch competes on a level field.

  • A week, not a day

    Launches run Monday to Sunday (UTC), so your product stays in the ranked feed all week instead of a few hours.

  • Built for makers under 1000 followers

    Only makers with fewer than 1000 followers on X can launch, checked through the official X API. You’re ranked against people who started where you did.

  • A public ranking formula

    The weekly order comes from upvotes, comments, momentum and how complete your listing is. A maker’s own upvotes and comments never count.

  • Free to launch

    Every week has free launch slots. A paid Premium launch guarantees a slot and adds a featured highlight.

Questions

Can I launch on ShipX and Product Hunt?
Yes. A weekly board and a daily launch site reach different people, so many makers use both. Launching on ShipX doesn’t stop you launching anywhere else.
Who can launch on ShipX?
Makers with fewer than 1000 followers on X when they launch. Anyone can browse, upvote, comment and review.
How is the weekly order decided?
By a public formula: upvotes, comments, momentum and listing quality, with the maker’s own activity left out. The full formula is on the How it works page.
