Compared, on the record
The Launch Directory as an alternative to Fazier
Fazier has a free tier that asks for a link back and paid tiers that promote you. The Launch Directory also asks a free listing for our badge and a complete founder profile, and adds an after-launch record to every listing.

What is Fazier?
Fazier is a product launch platform with daily launches. Its free Basic tier is reviewed and listed within 30 days and needs a link to Fazier on your site; paid tiers publish at once or on a date you choose and add promotion.
Who it suits
Makers who want a quick, inexpensive launch and are comfortable either paying a little or linking back for the free tier.
What Fazier does well
- A free tier and several low paid tiers.
- Paid launches can be scheduled.
- A guaranteed dofollow link on its Premium tier.
Where The Launch Directory is different
Both Fazier's free tier and ours ask for a link back to us on your site; ours also asks for a complete founder profile. Here the free listing gets its week 1-2 weeks out, and a paid launch at $5 goes live at once or in the week you pick with a followed link.
The Launch Directory files every launch in a dated weekly edition, and community votes, never purchases, decide the week's top three.
Every live listing keeps a launch receipt, and each listed business can run one free AI answer check.
What a launch on The Launch Directory includes
Whatever you decide about the platform above, this is what a listing here comes with.
- A paid launch at $5
- It goes live straight away or in the week you choose, with a followed link to your website and every profile section open: the founder story, milestones and demo video.
- A free way in
- With our badge on your website and your founder profile complete, a free listing joins the free queue and goes live in its week, 1-2 weeks out. Its link to you is not followed; screenshots and comparisons are shown all the same.
- A launch receipt for every listing
- Each live listing carries a dated record of what we measured after launch: Domain Rating by Ahrefs then and now, referring domains, AI mentions where we measure them, and the visits we sent you. It is updated daily, and nothing in it is estimated.
- A free AI answer check
- Every listed business can run one free check of what ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity answer when a buyer asks about its category: whether you are named, where, and which sources they cite.
- Votes that cannot be bought
- One person, one vote. Featured places, sponsors and the Billboard are labelled as paid and never add a vote to anything.
- Our Domain Rating, in public
- Our own Ahrefs Domain Rating is printed on the pricing page, so you can judge the link before you pay for it.
- Pay without signing up first
- Your account is created at checkout. Pay by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal or crypto; prices are in US dollars, VAT is added only where due, and invoices come from Zinn Digital® Ltd.
- Product of the Week
- The three listings with the most community votes each week win #1, #2 and #3 Product of the Week, with a badge for the listing and a page to share.
- Founders by name
- Every founder gets a profile page linked to their companies, and a paid listing can carry the founder story behind the product.
- Domain records on every listing
- Listings show the company domain's public registration record, and the free domain age checker looks up any domain.
