launchduels
The board where startups compete for one seat per category.
We built Launchduels to give early software a public, zero‑equity way to prove demand—one seat per category, free to file, with a frozen offer and a public deadline. It runs two arenas: CohortDuel for indie apps (25 verified joiners) and PilotDuel for B2B SaaS (one signed pilot). Let us know what you think!
Features
- +Two arenas — Separate tracks for B2B pilots and indie cohorts with distinct rules and outcomes.
- +One seat per category — Only one founder can claim a seat in each market category at a time.
- +Public frozen terms — Offer details are published before the tenure starts and cannot be changed mid-term.
- +Proof of demand — B2B: one signed pilot; Indie: 25 verified joiners needed to graduate.
- +Permanent public record — Graduated seats are recorded forever on a public wall with verification tiers.
- +Free filing — Filing a seat costs $0 and involves no equity or fees.
Use Cases
- Secure a signed pilot agreement for a new B2B SaaS product.
- Validate an indie app concept by filling a 25-person verified cohort.
- Demonstrate market interest publicly to attract investors or partners.
- Create a permanent proof of traction that can be shared with stakeholders.
