Product discovery, without the noise
Good products don’t fail.
They get ignored.
Shortlist helps overlooked products get discovered — by people who actually know what they’re looking at.
Why this exists
AI made it easy to build products. It also made it easy for good work to disappear. Rankings reward noise. Reviews are rushed or paid. Builders ship quietly while louder products win attention. Shortlist is built for signal — not hype.
- No ads. No pay-to-win.
- Judgment that compounds over time.
- Rankings you can actually trust.
What Shortlist does
- Publish your product for free.
- Get thoughtful reviews (not hot takes).
- Track who’s consistently right.
- Let quality rise sustainably.
This is for you if…
You care about long-term product quality and want discovery to feel fair again.
Builders
You built something solid. You don’t want to beg for attention, buy ads, or play launch games. Shortlist gives your product a chance to be seen by people who care about quality.
Reviewers
You’re good at spotting promising products early. You think clearly. You don’t shout. Here, your judgment compounds. Being right actually matters.
What this is not
- Not a popularity contest.
