About EarlyHunt
EarlyHunt is a weekly AI and startup launch platform where founders ship products to early adopters, compete for upvotes during launch week, and earn lasting discovery through project pages, launch stories, and category hubs on earlyhunt.com. Every week, projects go live Monday at 8:00 AM UTC and compete through the week. Visitors browse and upvote launches, explore past winners in the Hall of Fame, and discover tools by category. Founders can launch for free (with badge requirements) or upgrade to Premium for guaranteed dofollow placement, Launch Kit graphics, an editorial launch story, and social promotion.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Does Blastra support EarlyHunt?
- Soon. Blastra is currently testing submissions to EarlyHunt — we're trialing it on a limited basis to confirm it delivers for customers before adding it to the standard service. Once testing wraps up, we'll handle submissions to EarlyHunt the same way as currently supported directories: account setup, listing copy, and approval follow-up, with no extra work on your side.
- Is EarlyHunt free to list on?
- Free listings are available on EarlyHunt, with optional paid upgrades on top. The upgrades exist to flesh out a more robust profile, which helps with LLM visibility and matters most when EarlyHunt is one of the directories you want to prioritize for review collection. Most companies start free and only revisit upgrades once they see results from being there.
- Are reviews part of how EarlyHunt works?
- No, reviews aren't a meaningful part of EarlyHunt. The platform's value isn't built on review volume, so a review collection campaign isn't required to benefit from a listing here. If you have a review strategy already, focus that energy on directories where reviews actually drive ranking or visibility.
- Can I list a pre-launch product on EarlyHunt?
- Yes. EarlyHunt accepts pre-launch products as long as you have a working website, including beta and waitlist stages. The reviewers want to see that the product exists and the website explains what it does, but they don't require general availability or paying customers to approve the listing.
- How long does it take to get listed on EarlyHunt?
- It depends on EarlyHunt's queue and how complete the submission is, but in our experience most listings on EarlyHunt get approved within 7-14 days. If your submission is missing fields or the website needs translation work, expect the longer end of that range or some back-and-forth before approval.
- Can I list my software on EarlyHunt?
- Yes — EarlyHunt accepts product listings, including SaaS, software, AI tools, and hardware. Service businesses, agencies, and consultancies won't be approved or won't fit the audience even if they get through. If you sell services, look at directories with explicit Services focus instead, like Clutch or GoodFirms.
