Hey Product Hunt! 👋
A few weeks ago I came across outbid.lol — a leaderboard where rank is purely whatever you paid for it, no algorithm, no votes. I was fascinated by how honest that felt compared to every other "discovery" platform that hides behind a black-box ranking system. So I built my own take on it: Rankify.
The idea is simple — pick a spot, pay to hold it, keep it until someone pays more than you did. No upvote brigades, no gaming an algorithm, no "trending" that mysteriously favors certain accounts. Just price as the only signal.
While building it, the scope grew a bit: I added category boards so you're not just competing against every product on the internet, a "Today" and "Daily" leaderboard so smaller budgets can still take #1 for a day instead of needing to outbid an all-time price, and both PayPal and card checkout so it's easy to actually claim a spot.
Still very early — real bids are already coming in, but there's plenty of room at the top right now. Would love your feedback, and if you've got a project you want eyes on, this is probably the most honest $2 you'll spend on marketing this week 😄
Happy to answer anything about how it works or why I built it this way!
