I got tired of building my product for a 24 hour shelf life. So I made a directory that doesn't expire.
You know the drill. Spend weeks polishing your landing page. Tweak the tagline for the 47th time. Launch day hits. Some upvotes roll in. You feel like a king for exactly one evening.
Next morning? Buried. Lost in a pile of new launches. Your listings lifespan shorter than a banana.
Thats the dirty secret about product directories. They sell you on launch day and forget you exist after. Your product works for 24 hours. Then its someone else's turn.
I got fed up with that model. So I built shippin.io.
A directory where your product stays findable as long as its useful. Rankings update hourly based on real clicks and activity. Not launch day momentum. Connect Stripe or Dodo to slap verified revenue on your listing. Relaunch when you feel like it. Archive and unarchive at will.
No expiration date. No starting from zero. No begging for upvotes every time you ship something.
Free for Indie hackers, funded startups and solo devs to submit.
Not claiming this is perfect. Its not. But its better than building your product for a 24 hour window.
Drop your product link below. I would like to see what you are working on.
The “24-hour shelf life” problem is real, but the interesting part is whether ongoing rankings create meaningful discovery rather than just a longer directory. Curious what signal you’re seeing so far that predicts a product will actually keep getting discovered.
