Terms

Last updated: 9 August 2026

The short version: publish real numbers, don't try to game the rankings, and we'll do our part. The long version is below.

What we offer

We count the users your product reports through our API, publish what you choose to publish, and rank participating startups by rules that are written on the rankings page itself. The service is provided as is, with no uptime guarantee.

What we ask of you

That the data you send is real. Sending fabricated users, backdated history or automated traffic to inflate a number is the one thing that breaks this product for everyone. We can restrict ranking eligibility when the numbers don't add up, and we keep evidence when we do.

Ranking eligibility

Rankings require a few days of continuous data, a minimum of users we've counted ourselves, and a sufficient trust score. Being left out of a ranking is not an accusation: your profile and your metrics stay exactly as they are.

Paid placements

Advertising and sponsorships never alter an organic ranking position. Anything paid is labelled as such. If that ever stops being true, the product has no reason to exist.

Your account

You can delete your projects and your account at any time. We can suspend an account that abuses the API, tries to access other startups' data, or publishes content that is illegal or harmful.

Changes

If these terms change in a way that matters, we'll say so in the product before it takes effect.
