Vercel Day is live 🚨
by•
Vercel Day is live on Product Hunt today.
We teamed up with @Vercel for a special launch day, which means there’s a dedicated leaderboard full of teams shipping on Vercel, all in one place. More launches, more competition, more reasons to spend too long refreshing the page.
There is also a lot on the line. Vercel will pick five startups to get access to Vercel VIP Startup Perks, worth $30k in Vercel credits, and one or more startups could be invited to pitch to Vercel Ventures.
Go check out the leaderboard, find a few favorites, and give them a push.

A dedicated leaderboard removes a lot of noise from the usual feed. You can actually compare like for like launches.
These time boxed events seems to create more urgency for builders to ship rather than over polish.
Product Hunt
@simao23Â We had an Alpha Day! (Launch day for products not released anywhere)
Interesting how competition based days naturally shift attention from browsing to comparing launches.
Hello Aria
Love this collab! Special leaderboard days are a great way to surface momentum around specific ecosystems and give smaller teams a fighting chance to stand out.
We launched Hello Aria on Product Hunt on April 10th — an AI assistant that manages your day via WhatsApp/Telegram. The launch day energy here is honestly unmatched. The concentrated attention from a focused community can do more for early traction than weeks of organic distribution.
Congrats to all the Vercel teams shipping today. Will be watching the leaderboard!
This is actually a smart move by PH.
These “focused launch days” concentrate attention way more than normal days, which gives smaller teams a real shot at visibility instead of getting buried in noise
Also the $30k credits + potential VC exposure adds real incentive, not just vanity rankings
Feels like the real game here isn’t just launching… it’s picking the right moment and context to launch in.
Is this only for Live apps that have been launched or for those also in the process. I've been working on a product/service for the past 5 months and started on Vercel about 5-6 weeks ago as a recommendation from @Claude by Anthropic . A few bugs and constraints to sort out and some ongoing Pentest/Vulnerability assessments needed before I can confidently release it. As a startup myself, I haven't launched it yet.
This is awesome, love seeing Vercel spotlight all the teams shipping today. The leaderboard + VIP perks is such a smart move. Already going through and upvoting a few that caught my eye. Which launch are you most excited about so far?
Any hidden gems on the leaderboard worth checking?
How are the winners for the perks being selected?
