What this is

NowFound is an index of product launches: 340,170 of them since 2009, gathered from public launch announcements every 30 minutes and from makers who add their products directly. It exists to answer two questions launch sites can’t: “what does the job I need done?” across all of them, and “what happened after launch day?”

Who runs it

Bartosz Wlodarczyk, an independent maker. NowFound is a PixelGrab project; the blog is written by him, and the comparison articles are produced from checked facts as described on the blog page. Questions and corrections: [email protected].

What a listing holds

The public basics of a launch: name, one-liner, launch date, launch-day votes, the product’s own website and its icon, and where makers published them, their names and topics. Nothing else is mirrored.

Makers

Add your product and it is listed at once, with a page, a share link that counts every real visitor you bring, and a badge. Edit, pause or remove it from your products page any time. Launches harvested from the sources that got no traction on their launch day are hidden until their maker says yes, and we only ever write to a maker once, by hand. To have anything removed, email [email protected] and it comes down the same day.

How search works

Your description and every launch are turned into vectors by a small open model running on our own server. The closest launches are then graded for fit by Claude, and ordered by that grade first and by votes second. Nothing you type is used for anything else.
