uvpip
pip, but 10-100x faster - same commands, powered by uv
What this is
A drop-in replacement that makes pip install commands 10-100x faster by routing them through Astral's uv installer — a CLI/shell tool, not a GUI app.
Our one-line summary — not the founder’s tagline.
- How it works
- A transparent wrapper that intercepts pip and pip3 commands and routes them through uv, Astral's Rust-based installer, without changing how you type pip commands.
- What's different
- Makes pip install, pip freeze and pip uninstall 10-100x faster while keeping the original pip untouched; a shell function keeps it active inside virtual environments.
- Best for
- Python developers who want faster pip installs without changing their existing workflow.
- Watch out
- Works via a shell function to stay active inside venvs, so it depends on your shell being set up correctly rather than being a drop-in binary replacement.

Dev. Launched 15d ago on Product Hunt, picking up 2 votes. Today, the site itself changed 2d ago — evidence it's still shipping, not just announcing.
Quiet for 2 days — no penalty yet, but quiet doesn't stay free.
We check this site every day, ourselves. A founder can post “still working on it” — a claim like that doesn't price. What we price is what we can verify from the outside: evidence, not announcements. The real question isn't “will this be huge?” — it's “will they still be moving in four weeks?”

Beyan değil kanıt: founder “çalışıyoruz” diye post atabilir, ama sevk ettiyse izi kalır. ⚠️ Kaydı olmayan ürün “sevk etmedi” demek değildir — o üründe izleyecek bir kaynağımız yok demektir.
The market viewHow this launch is priced and ranked in our league — the investor side of the page.
ranked by the reality anchor, not the market price
It launched on Product Hunt with 2 votes.
No matter how much money goes in. There is no pump here — you can't make yourself right by buying more. The line only moves on things that actually happened: an award, revenue that grew, a new platform, code that shipped — or silence.
En eski 3 hareket bu listede yok — toplam 15 olay var. 1 quiet day in between are left out — nothing happened on them. A launch that goes quiet eases down a little at a time — never a cliff you could have run from the night before.
Daily tracking just started for this launch — the first point is on the board. A second reading lands with tomorrow's run, and the curve builds from there.
How the launch is moving on its own board, day by day — the crowd's attention.
A flat line is normal: votes stop within a day or two of launch, on every board. What's unusual — and what actually counts — is a launch that keeps pulling votes long after its day is over.
About
uvpip is a transparent wrapper that intercepts pip and pip3 commands and routes them through uv — Astral's Rust-based package installer — without changing anything about how you work. Keep using pip install, pip freeze, pip uninstall exactly as before, just 10-100x faster. Works inside virtual environments too, using a shell function so it stays active even after venv activation. Cross-platform: Windows, macOS, Linux. Your original pip is never modified.

The board it did best on sets the price. Every other board only adds to it if the launch also placed high on that board too — because just showing up somewhere isn't an achievement. Listing on twelve directories is free; placing well on them isn't.
