LaunchLog: The log of what just shipped. Curated SaaS & tech launches.

Hey PH 👋 I'm Alex, solo founder. I kept paying for directory listings — Futurepedia, BetaList, a few others — then noticed something: when I asked ChatGPT or Perplexity about tools in my category, none of those listings ever got cited. Most directories serve client-side JavaScript. AI crawlers see empty divs and move on. So I built LaunchLog around the opposite default. Every listing ships: → a full schema.org JSON-LD graph → an entry in llms.txt → a markdown version via content negotiation (Accept: text/markdown) Same clean directory UX on the surface. Underneath, it's built so Google, Bing and the AI answer engines can actually parse and cite you. You can preview your listing for free before publishing — you see exactly how it'll look, and only pay when you go live. Still early and building in public. I'd love feedback on the AI-citation angle specifically: what would make you trust (and pay for) a directory in 2026?
