AI where it helps. Rules where accuracy matters.

Consistent scoring, not AI vibes.

Your score isn't generated by a chatbot. The same checks with the same weights run every time, so two scans of the same page agree — and a change in your score means something changed on your site.

AI appears in exactly two labelled places: an optional overview paragraph on the paid report, and the LaunchDay's launch story. Neither touches the score.

Honesty

What LaunchGraded doesn't do.

  • Guarantee traffic, signups or revenue
  • Predict Product Hunt or ranking success
  • Judge your copy's tone or your business model
  • Read anything behind a login
This score reflects your public launch experience, messaging, trust signals, technical readiness, the things LaunchGraded can actually audit. It's not a verdict on product-market fit or business success; that part's still yours to prove.

FAQ

Questions founders ask.

All questions
Is the free scan really free?
Yes. The free scan gives you your full score out of 100, the verdict, all 9 dimension scores and roughly 30 % of the individual findings — worst first, with the top blocker fully explained. Just your email, no password, no card. The LaunchFix unlocks every finding with a fix-first plan — $39.
Who is LaunchGraded for?
Founders who are about to launch. Solo founders use it to catch anything obvious before launch day, startup teams to work from one shared, prioritised checklist, and agencies and studios to audit a client site before hand-over and prove the quality. Running one standard across a whole accelerator cohort is planned, not available yet.
Why is my live, profitable site scoring low?
LaunchGraded scores your public launch surface against the LaunchGraded Standard — not your traffic, revenue or product. A site can be doing well commercially and still have a noindex tag, no visible pricing path or no social proof. The score tells you what a first-time visitor and a search engine see, which is exactly what you'd want to fix before sending more traffic.
Does AI decide my score?
No. Every one of the 51 checks is a published rule with a fixed weight, run the same way every time, so two scans of the same page agree. AI appears in two labelled places only — an optional overview paragraph on the paid report and LaunchDay's launch story — and neither touches the score.
What happens after I fix things?
Rescan. Every scan is stored against your site, so you see exactly what moved and what didn't. Once you clear 90 with no blockers you can opt in to a public certificate and an embeddable badge.
What does LaunchGraded read on my site?
Only public pages, the same way a first-time visitor or Googlebot would: the page you submit, its HTML and metadata, a Lighthouse run, robots.txt and a random-path 404 probe. We never log in, submit forms, or read anything behind authentication. Our crawler identifies itself as LaunchGradedBot and respects robots.txt.
Can I get a refund on the report?
If something goes wrong with your order — a failed generation, a report that doesn't match what you paid for — contact us and we'll make it right, including a refund where appropriate. The free scan is there so you can see what you're buying before you buy it.
