How LaunchIndex works
A new website goes live. LaunchIndex notices.
Public observations become a searchable launch record—without requiring every owner to announce or submit their site.
- 01New candidate
Watch
We look for newly active websites across the public web.
- 02Live status
Confirm
We check whether a site is ready for visitors rather than parked, unfinished or still coming soon.
- 03Useful context
Understand
We add useful public context about what the website does and where it fits.
- 04Launch record
Add to the index
We record when we first observed the site live and make the listing searchable.
First observed live is not a claimed launch date.
LaunchIndex records when we first see a website live. The site may have appeared earlier, so we present the date as an observation rather than a promise of exact timing.

Free Launch Check first confirms that one selected public page resolves and responds. After account sign-in, it runs the full one-page review and shows every automated finding it can support with evidence in a private account report. Future full-site audits will build on the same checks to cover broader scope, deeper journeys, report history, and expert interpretation.
