LaunchRepoChecked on September 30, 2026 — prices and features from the public website of AutoSaaSLaunch; verify before buying.
Short answer: Both are pay-once, unlimited-product tools that work in your own accounts. AutoSaaSLaunch is the $29 pick if your list is a few well-known launch sites and you want an extension that fills the forms. LaunchRepo is the pick when your list is long or specific to your product: 299 playbooks your own agent reads, and a tracker on your machine.
AutoSaaSLaunch is the closest product to LaunchRepo in this set, because it makes the same three promises: pay once, unlimited products, your own accounts. It keeps them with a Chrome extension that auto-fills directory forms while you click through them, for $29 in beta, plus a hosted dashboard to track what you sent. LaunchRepo keeps them with 299 directory playbooks that your own AI agent works through, a product template, and a tracker cloned to your machine, for €119.00. Same philosophy, very different scope — so this page is about what each covers in practice.
Five questions that decide it
Answer each question for the product you are launching next. Where most of your answers land is your pick.
| Question | Pick AutoSaaSLaunch if | Pick LaunchRepo if |
|---|---|---|
| How long is your launch list? | Short and mainstream: the launch sites AutoSaaSLaunch supports are the ones you care about. | Long or niche: AI-tool, developer-tool and B2B platforms picked for your product from 299 playbooks. |
| Do you want an AI agent in the loop? | No. The extension fills the form and you press submit; no agent usage is billed. | Yes. Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or a browser agent reads each playbook and does the clicking while you watch. |
| What about forms autofill cannot handle? | You fill the remaining fields yourself. | Each playbook says what to prepare, which fields block a submission and what counts as live, so the agent handles more than known fields. |
| Where should your process live? | In their extension and hosted dashboard. | On your machine: repository, product.json and submissions.json, yours to keep. |
| How much will you spend? | As little as possible: $29 lifetime in beta. | €119.00 once for the full catalog, plus your AI provider’s usage. |
Side by side
Published pricing: $29 one-time, lifetime (beta). One plan is published: “Founding Member” at $29 “one-time • lifetime”, shown against a crossed-out $50, with “Unlimited SaaS products & launches”, “18 directories supported”, a Chrome extension with smart autofill, a launch dashboard, “Lifetime access to all future directories” and a “14-day money-back guarantee”. The price “increases to $50 when we reach 30+ directories”. The extension itself is “Free to install”.
AutoSaaSLaunch publishes its prices in US dollars, LaunchRepo charges in euros. Both are shown as published; we do not convert them.
| Criterion | LaunchRepo | AutoSaaSLaunch |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing model | One payment. No subscription, no renewal, no fee per launch. | One-time payment, lifetime: $29 Founding Member price in beta, rising to $50 “when we reach 30+ directories”. No subscription. |
| What the price covers | One licence. €119.00 is today’s price as a reference incl. 19 % German VAT; checkout applies the tax for your country. The price does not rise. | One licence covers the Chrome extension, the launch dashboard and “Lifetime access to all future directories”. |
| Number of products covered | Unlimited products you own and operate. The second product costs nothing extra. | “Unlimited SaaS products & launches”, the same unlimited model as LaunchRepo. |
| Who does the work | Your own AI coding or browser agent, started by you. LaunchRepo is a toolkit, not a service. | You, in your browser, with the extension auto-filling forms; “API automation handles submissions instantly where directories support it.” |
| Accounts used | Your own accounts, in your own logged-in browser. Nobody signs in as you. | Your own: “All submissions happen through YOUR accounts.” |
| What you own afterwards | The repository with 299 playbooks, your product.json and your tracker — cloned to your machine and yours to keep. | Your listings in your accounts, plus the extension and hosted dashboard while the service runs. |
| Directory count and source | 299 directory playbooks in the repo, each with preparation, form fields, blockers and what counts as a confirmation. | “18 directories supported” in beta. Elsewhere the site says it “Currently supports Product Hunt and BetaList”, and the extension page says “Starting with Product Hunt”. |
| Tracking of outcomes | Your submissions.json and the local dashboard record draft, submitted, pending, scheduled, needs-you and live separately. | A hosted “Launch dashboard to track submissions” with status tracking and approval monitoring. |
| Guarantees | None. Every directory decides for itself what it publishes, so we promise no listing, backlink or ranking. | The homepage offers a “14-day money-back guarantee”; the terms say “All sales are final” with refunds “on a case-by-case basis within 14 days” if you have not submitted yet. No acceptance guarantee. |
| Own AI agent required | Yes. Bring Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or a browser agent; your provider bills its usage. | No AI agent. The extension auto-fills; you review and click. |
| Languages | Playbooks, templates and dashboard in English; this website in 12 languages. | Not published on the pages we checked. |
| Best for | Developers who ship more than one product and want a launch process they keep. | A founder who wants to speed up a few well-known launch sites for $29 and prefers an extension to an AI agent. |
Worked example: A developer tool with a long launch list
Inputs — an example, swap in your own
- One developer tool, 40 target platforms on your shortlist (an example).
- AutoSaaSLaunch Founding Member: $29 once; it covers the directories it supports, the rest you fill in yourself.
- LaunchRepo licence: €119.00 once, plus what your AI provider bills for the agent run.
With AutoSaaSLaunch the supported sites go quickly and the rest of the 40 are your own manual work. With LaunchRepo your agent reads a playbook for each platform on the shortlist and records every state in the tracker, so the long tail is part of the run, not homework. For a shortlist that matches their supported directories, $29 is the better deal; the longer and more specific the list, the more the playbooks are worth.
An example with stated inputs, not a measured result. AutoSaaSLaunch prices as published on September 30, 2026; your AI provider bills agent usage separately.
When AutoSaaSLaunch is the better choice
- You want the cheapest pay-once option. $29 lifetime is a fraction of €119.00, and the homepage offers a 14-day money-back guarantee.
- You do not want an AI agent in the loop. The extension fills the form, you press submit, and there is no agent usage to pay for.
- Your launch list is short and mainstream. If their supported directories are the ones you care about, more playbooks add nothing.
- You want a hosted dashboard with approval monitoring rather than a local one.
- You like being an early user: it is in beta, support comes from the founder, and future directories are included for life.
When LaunchRepo is the better choice
- You want 299 playbooks, not a beta list — including AI-tool, developer-tool, B2B and application-only platforms that autofill cannot cover.
- You want an agent that reads a playbook: what to prepare, which fields block a submission, what counts as live.
- You want the process on disk. The repository, product.json and submissions.json keep working on your machine, independent of any hosted service.
- You want a shortlist derived from your product — AI tool, dev tool, B2B SaaS — instead of a fixed set.
- You want the tracker to separate submitted, pending review, scheduled, needs-you and live, in a submissions.json file you can search.
Verdict
If your launch list is short and mainstream and you want to skip the copy-paste for $29, AutoSaaSLaunch is a sensible buy that shares our view on paying once and owning your accounts. LaunchRepo is built for launch lists that are long, specific or repeated: 299 playbooks, an agent that reads them, and a tracker that lives on your machine. Both are pay-once; the real question is whether their supported directories cover your product or whether you need the full catalog and the process behind it.

Questions about LaunchRepo vs AutoSaaSLaunch
What is the real difference between LaunchRepo and AutoSaaSLaunch?
Scope and mechanics. Both are pay-once, unlimited-product, your-own-accounts tools. AutoSaaSLaunch is a Chrome extension that auto-fills the directories it supports, with a hosted dashboard; LaunchRepo is a repository of 299 playbooks that your own AI agent runs, with a local tracker.
Which one is cheaper?
AutoSaaSLaunch: $29 lifetime in beta, rising to $50 at 30+ directories, against €119.00 once. They price in US dollars, we charge in euros. Checked on September 30, 2026; verify both before buying.
How many directories does AutoSaaSLaunch support?
The site says “18 directories supported” and, in another section, that it “Currently supports Product Hunt and BetaList”; the extension page says “Starting with Product Hunt”. Ask them which forms the extension fills today before you buy.
Do I need an AI agent for either?
Not for AutoSaaSLaunch: the extension auto-fills and you click. Yes for LaunchRepo: bring Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or a browser agent, whose usage your provider bills.
Does either guarantee listings?
No. AutoSaaSLaunch’s terms say it does “not guarantee that your submissions will be accepted by any directory”. LaunchRepo promises no listing either — every directory decides what it publishes.
