A launch day is exciting. Visitors arrive, upvotes climb and for a few hours it feels like the product has made it. Then the traffic fades, and the founder is back to the same question as before: will anyone pay for this?
We built 0to1.live around a simple idea: a launch should end with real users, not just attention. That is why every listing comes with a pilot program. Founders say how many seats they have, how long the pilot runs, what testers get and what they commit to. Testers apply, use the product on real work and give feedback every week.
What changes when a launch has a pilot
- Founders talk to ten serious users instead of skimming a thousand comments.
- Testers get something concrete for their time, and a direct line to the team.
- Everyone can see the results: how many testers were accepted, how many are still active and how many became paying customers.
Stages, not just ranks
Each listing shows where it is: MVP live, pilot live or revenue live. Moving up is something a founder earns, not a badge that lasts one day. That is the ".live" in 0to1.live.
For investors
Because the numbers are public, investors can see traction before the pitch. Deal flow on 0to1.live lists startups with live pilots next to what their founders are raising.
If you are building a SaaS product, launch it, pilot it and prove it here.
