The home for pre-launch ideas.

Waitly exists for one reason: too many founders build before they know if anyone wants what they're making. We think you should ship a waitlist before you ship code.

For founders: Post your idea in 60 seconds. Get a public page, a waitlist, and an honest read on demand — without burning a sprint on landing-page design.

For everyone else: Discover what's brewing. Join waitlists for things you'd actually use. Be early without doom-scrolling Twitter.

Waitly is independent, small, and built by people who've shipped startups (and killed a few). The newsletter goes out weekly. The discover feed updates in real time. Validation should be cheap. So we made it cheap.
