What is the founding 100?
At launch, the first 100 products to join the board received a "Founding 100" badge on their listing and on the embeddable rank badge that their own site can wear. That badge allocation is now closed — but listing itself is still FREE at $0. New free lists just don't get the badge.
How does it work now?
List FREE, then pay to be ranked from $5. Your rank matches your cumulative bid: outbid anyone by paying more than their total. The math is simple: higher bid, higher rank. Existing founding badges remain valid historical markers on the listings that earned them.
What does the badge mean today?
A founding badge is a timestamp. It says: I was here early. For founders building in public, that signal is worth more than a paid ad.
Is listing really free?
Yes — list FREE at $0, bottom rank. You can submit a product right now free and land on the board in under a minute. Pay only to climb to a rank worth screenshotting.
Why does it matter?
The founding badge is a timestamp. It says: I was here early. For founders building in public, that signal is worth more than a paid ad. Early adopters get rewarded. That is the point.
