What a Tiny Startups listing includes

Tiny Startups is a launch board. Curated startup launch platform and directory with a pay-what-you-want ranked board and a free weekly launchpad. When we checked on November 2, 2026, the cost was: Free listing; paid upgrades; pay-what-you-want board ('The more you pay, the higher you rank').

Every listing is hand-approved; free submissions must be verified, for example with a post. Upgrade prices show only once you start a submission.

Link type, and how we know

Link type on a free (or the only) listing: Nofollow. We read it on the site's own pricing, FAQ or submit page, or from the rel attribute on the link a public listing gives the listed product.

Conditions: Free: nofollow. Paid board spots: dofollow

The pages we opened on November 2, 2026:

A nofollow, sponsored or UGC link tells search engines not to count it as a vote; a plain (dofollow) link can be counted. Either way, a listing is worth more for the people who see it than for the link.
