How do I follow a founder or listing on the boards?

Follow any listing or founder to receive their milestones, products, launches and stories by email and in your account dashboard.

Updated

Tracking your missions

Every listing page and founder profile has a Follow button. When you follow, their updates orbit into your inbox and account—no need to return and check manually. Following costs nothing; you only need a free account on Biz Startup Launcher.

Launch your follow

Open the listing or founder page you want to track. Press Follow. If you're already signed in, you begin following immediately and the button switches to Following. If you're not signed in, the button takes you to sign up or log in, then back to confirm your follow.

What lands in your feed

Followers of a listing receive notices about:

  • New milestones and updates
  • New products from that company
  • Status changes (acquisition, closure)
  • Founder stories
  • Demo video replacements
  • New launches across other launch and discovery sites (max one notice daily)
  • #1, #2 or #3 Launch of the Week wins

Followers of a founder receive that founder's new stories. Every update arrives as an account notice and email.

Control your signal

Visit /account/notifications to set your pace: instantly, daily summary, weekly summary, or off. You can add Telegram or Slack there too. Stop following anytime by pressing the Following button again—updates end at once. You can also silence emails at /account/notifications while staying followed.

The counts that matter

Following never affects community votes, vote rankings or Product of the Week. Followers do count toward the /launches/most-followed list, which ranks the most followed launches on Biz Startup Launcher.

Questions people ask

Do I pay to follow?
No. Following is free. You need only a free account.
What updates do I get?
Milestones, new products, status changes, founder stories, demo videos, new launches on other sites (once daily maximum), and Launch of the Week wins.
How do I stop?
Press the Following button on that page. Updates stop at once. Or turn emails off at /account/notifications without unfollowing.
