Awesome Indie (https://awesomeindie.com) is a directory of indie and micro-startup products: daily launches, period rankings, maker profiles and a community feed. Anonymous connections get the discovery tools. Connecting with OAuth (any Awesome Indie account) unlocks the maker tools: submitting and updating products, launch status, per-product stats, the comment inbox and draft writing. There is intentionally no upvote tool — votes cast by agents would be ranking manipulation — and posts and articles can only be drafted here, never published. The payment tools (Skip the Line launches, Pro) never charge anything: they return a hosted checkout URL for the user to open and pay in a browser.
