RankIndia is a public leaderboard for Indian startups, apps, D2C brands, creators, college projects and local businesses. One rule: the highest total bid is #1. List for ₹1 (about 1 cent). Bid anything via UPI or card. Bids add up through the month, anyone can boost anyone, and every board resets on the 1st. Each listing also ranks on its state and category board, so a ₹50 bid can make you #1 in Bihar or in College Projects. Winners stay in the Hall of Fame forever.

Hi Product Hunt, Ayush here, solo builder from Ghaziabad. I kept seeing great Indian side projects, college builds and tiny D2C brands that nobody discovered because they had no money for ads and no press contacts. "Submit your startup" directories either cost thousands or bury you on page 40. So I built the opposite: one board, ranked only by how much you are willing to put behind your own project. The floor is ₹1. Right now #1 costs a few hundred rupees. Nobody can buy a permanent spot because everything resets on the 1st of every month, and anyone (your users, your friends, your college) can boost you without logging in. It's two weeks old. 7 listings, real money, real bid wars already. I'd love your brutal feedback on two things: does the "pay to rank" idea feel fair to you, and what would make you list your own project? The #1 spot in most states is empty today. If you list during launch day, reply here with your link and I'll boost you myself.

Is "pay to rank" fair? Honest question before we launch

RankIndia is a leaderboard for Indian startups, apps and small businesses where the only ranking rule is total bid. 1 gets you on the board, the highest total bid is #1, and everything resets on the 1st of every month.

I picked this deliberately: ads and directories already sell visibility, they just hide the price. Here the price is public, anyone can see what #1 cost, and your users can boost you without logging in.

Before launch I want to hear the objection, not the applause:

1. Does a leaderboard decided by money feel fair to you, or does it feel like pay-to-win?

Claim an empty #1 spot: most Indian states have no leader yet

Right now the All-India #1 costs a few hundred rupees, but the state boards (Bihar, Gujarat, Kerala, Punjab and 20+ more) and most category boards have zero listings. 1 makes you #1 there today, and you keep the spot until someone outbids you.

If you list before launch day, reply here with your link and I will boost you myself so you have at least one supporter on your page. Submit: https://rankindia.live/submit

Launching Monday: what should be on the roadmap?

We go live on Product Hunt this week. Current roadmap: a "Ranked #1 on RankIndia" badge you can embed for a backlink, city-level boards, and email alerts when someone outbids you.

What would you want first? And is there anything on the site that confused you in the first 30 seconds?
