Podium

Pay to be #1. No algorithm, no judges.

What it does

Podium is a public leaderboard where you literally buy your way to being the world's #1 — no algorithm, no judges, no popularity contest. Outbid whoever's on top and you take their spot in real time, live for everyone to see. Built for creators who want to be discovered: claim a spot, share your rank on X/Instagram with an auto-generated card, and watch what happens when someone tries to dethrone you.

Podium is the global leaderboard for creators. No algorithm, no judges — rank is what you pay. Claim the #1 spot, get discovered, and climb the board in real time.

  • I made OwnTime to balance between competing priorities in my life. The idea is based on two main influences: the concept of "roles" from "The 5 Choices" (2015), and my repeated failure to effectively implement time blocking due to the necessary flexibility in my role.
