Why We Built This

Product Hunt shows launches — but not what happens six months later. Bloomberg covers public markets — but not early-stage products. There was no tool that tracked both the momentum of a new launch and the long-term signal decay (or growth) that followed.

We built Launch Sentinel to fill that gap. The goal is a Bloomberg Terminal for the product layer: dense, precise, and updated continuously.

Whether you're a founder sizing a market, an analyst tracking a category, or an investor doing due diligence on a team's traction history — Launch Sentinel gives you the signal that matters.

Data Methodology

Every product on Launch Sentinel is assigned a signal score — a single number from 0 to 100 — updated daily.

Signal Score (0–100)
Composite of press velocity, GitHub star growth, HN/Reddit mention frequency, and upvote momentum — normalized and weighted by recency.
Score History
Full time-series history stored per product. Score charts show trajectory, not just current state.
Death Detection
A product is flagged as "dead" when its signal score drops below threshold and remains there for 90+ consecutive days. Confirmed with secondary checks against GitHub activity and domain status.
Update Frequency
Signal scores recomputed daily. Press and social mentions ingested hourly. GitHub snapshots taken daily at 04:00 UTC.

Signal scores are algorithmic estimates derived from public data. They are not financial advice and do not reflect private funding status or revenue.

Team

Built by a small team passionate about product intelligence. We believe the best tools for understanding tech markets are still being built — and this is our contribution to that stack.
