How are products ranked in each launch period?

Products are ranked using a multi-factor score that weighs community votes, vote velocity, maker reputation, engagement signals, and fraud detection. The top 3 earn Gold, Silver, and Bronze winner badges.

Can I still vote after a launch week ends?

Voting is open throughout a launch period — Monday through Sunday. Once a period finishes, the rankings are locked and winners are announced.

How do I submit a product to a launch period?

Create a free account on Smol Launch, add your product, and submit it to the current launch week. Free submissions are capped at eight per week to keep quality high.
