Sidehunt - Weekly hunt for side projects & products

Sidehunt is built for builders who want more than just launching—they want visibility, feedback, and momentum. Every week, carefully curated products go live in a single focused hunt. Instead of getting lost in noise, your product competes in a structured environment where it can earn real votes and attention from early adopters who genuinely enjoy exploring and testing new ideas.

Unlike scattered launch platforms, Sidehunt creates a consistent rhythm: one week, one hunt, real engagement. This makes it easier for makers to stand out and for users to discover what’s worth their time.
