  1. Checked bloomly.exampleDay 03 things to fix before you share it, with a fix prompt for each.
  2. Re-checked after your fixesDay 1Google can read your page, and your headline now says who it’s for.
  3. 12 people came from RedditDay 32 of them signed up. Reddit works for Bloomly, so we’ll do more there.
  4. Today’s step · about 15 minutesAnswer 3 plant-care questions on RedditDrafts are ready in your voice. Mention Bloomly only where it really helps.

Publishing was the easy part.

Building an app takes a weekend now. Getting strangers to use it is where most first launches go quiet.

Launch day fades fast

Founders who post on Product Hunt or Reddit usually see traffic fall within days. What you do in the weeks after decides whether it turns into customers.

Small things that quietly cost you users

A headline strangers don’t understand, a page Google can’t read, sign-up emails that land in spam. Easy to fix, once you know they’re there.

Posting everywhere, hearing nothing

Launch boards are full of other makers, not buyers. The people who need your app talk somewhere else, and each place has its own rules.

Examples of what your Pal prepares, for a made-up plant-care app called Bloomly

  • Keeps watch over your launch

How it will work

Want a hand? Your Pal does it with you.

The free plan tells you what to do. The Launch Pass does it with you: some steps run on autopilot, and a real person reviews the parts that matter most. Your Pal also checks what each step brought in and changes the plan when something isn’t working.

Your Pal drafts, you approve. Nothing is posted under your name without your yes.

Pay once per app. That’s it.

Skeptical? Good.

Which builders does LaunchPal work with?

All of them: Lovable, Bolt, Replit, v0, Base44, Cursor, Claude Code or anything else, as long as your app has a public web address. Every fix prompt is written for the builder you use, so you can paste it straight in.

Is your Pal just a chatbot?

No. A chatbot waits for your questions. Your Pal works without being asked: it checks your app, re-checks after each fix, watches your visitors and sign-ups, and has your next step ready. You’ll be able to ask it questions later too.

Is the launch check really free?

Yes. Paste your URL and get the report, no sign-up needed. It reads only what anyone can see on your public site.

What happens after the first 30 days?

You get a day-30 report: what worked, what didn’t and what to focus on next. Your stats, alerts and weekly report keep running for free. When you’re ready to grow further, Launch Crew (coming soon) takes you from first users to steady growth, with workshops, mentors and other founders.

Do I have to launch in public?

No. Launching in public gets your app a page on LaunchPal Launches and lets you take part in the Growth Grant. If you prefer to launch quietly, everything else works the same.

Is it safe to connect my site and Stripe?

Our tracking script uses no cookies and counts visitors without storing who they are. Payment connections are read-only, and we only read totals such as new customers and revenue.

Do I need to spend money on ads?

No. The plan starts with free channels: search, communities and directories. Ads come up only if you want them and your tracking shows visitors already sign up.

When can I start?

Today, with the free launch check. We’re opening everything else in small batches, so every founder gets proper help. Join the waitlist after your check. We’ll email you when it’s your turn, with your report waiting.
