How to follow listings and founders
Follow any listing or founder to receive their updates by email and in your account; following is free and you can stop anytime.
Updated
Start following
Each listing page and founder profile displays a Follow button. Press it to receive updates. If you're signed out, you'll be taken to sign in or create an account (both free), then returned to confirm.
What you'll see
Followers receive notice of:
- New milestones and product launches from the company
- Status updates (acquired, closed, relaunched)
- Founder stories
- New or replaced demo videos
- Multi-site launches (max one notice per day)
- Launch of the Week awards (#1, #2, #3)
Founder followers receive their new founder stories only.
Each notice lands in your account and inbox. Emails arrive as a daily summary by default.
Adjust frequency or stop emails
Visit /account/notifications to choose: instantly, daily summary, weekly summary, or off. You can also add Telegram or Slack there. Turning emails off keeps you following; you'll still see updates in your account.
Stop following
Open the listing or founder page and press Following. You unfollow instantly; no more updates are sent. To keep following but silence emails, change settings at /account/notifications instead.
How it works for listing owners
Owners learn someone followed, never who. Follower counts may display on the listing.
Following and vote rankings
Following doesn't affect votes, vote rankings, or Product of the Week placement. Followers do count on /launches/most-followed, which ranks the most followed launches here.
