๐ I built PayToPin โ a public leaderboard where startups rank by one thing: what they bid.
No votes. No algorithm. No editors.
Pin your product from $5. Want #1? Outbid whoever's there โ you only pay the difference.

@kamilbaranek_ hey Kamil ๐ appreciate it. curious, what's the one X tactic that actually moved the needle for you? and have you tried ASO at all for iOS?
@SpellInterview 100%. the audience has to exist before launch day, PH just amplifies what's already there. what would you do differently if you were starting the pre-launch over?
@staaakh@X "building an AI company is easier than growing on X" is the most honest founder line I've read this week. congrats on the Series A. what does a digital worker for logistics actually replace first: dispatch, paperwork, or calls?
@jimisdima@X good luck with the launch. curious how you're planning the first week. building in public before launch, or one big drop on launch day? I've seen both work, but the "drop" crowd usually regrets not warming up an audience first
6 startups pinned in the last 24h:
Boya: expense cards for African businesses
https://t.co/QYJydlmU8Y: an API for durable real-time streams
Atlog: outbound voice AI with no prompt
Fifth Door: make and play games with AI
which one are you clicking first?

PayToPin is 1 month old. Full transparency:
โ 50 products on the board
โ 8 paid pins, 42 free ones we gave out to seed it
โ $110 in paid bids
โ highest paid bid: $19
The surprising part: the top 5 spots got 58% of all clicks.
What should I build next?
@growthhacker89 The co-marketing point is underrated. Tools that share a buyer but don't compete are the cheapest distribution there is. 13 days left, rooting for you. What's been the biggest MRR jump so far?
@builtwithrubel 750K views with no viral post is the more impressive stat. It means it's repeatable. 2 more years of that compounds into something big. What's been your best format so far?
@JulieFrench_ Hi Julie ๐ Building in the SaaS and side-project space, mostly marketplace mechanics and pricing experiments. Always happy to swap notes with other builders.
@timscheuer@elonmusk Same boat, about a month in here too. Agree that X feels like the place builders actually talk to each other. Curious: did the 17 signups come from your own posts or from replying to others?
