Tablif Aftermath Index · Week 37 · Monday to Sunday
The Aftermath Index, Sep 7 – 13, 2026
Everything here launched on one of 12 public launch boards during this week — dated by the board's own launch date, not by the day we happened to find it. The index is about what happened after that: who is still answering, who kept shipping, who went quiet.
Coverage for this week
6,429 products launched in total — no week-on-week figure: the week before has 5/7 days of collection — not a comparable week.
This week's cohort, 9 days on
Every other number on this page is frozen to the week it describes. This one is not: it is the same cohort of products, asked again today. That is the whole point of the index — the launch is the starting line, not the result.
Of 6,429 products in the cohort, 20 have stopped answering and 58 cannot be determined — those 58 are excluded from the percentage rather than guessed at. The per-board rows beside this add up to more than 6,429: a product posted to three boards appears in all three.
Not yet — and that is the honest answer at this age. 7 of the 9 boards shown have not lost a single product yet; the lowest sits at 98.2% still answering. Most products simply have not had time to die.

This section starts ranking boards on its own, the week the deaths spread out enough to mean something. Nothing here needs to be edited for that to happen.
The week, day by day — all 12 boards
Most launch boards publish daily; a few only weekly. The deeper the cell, the more launches dated to that day. Rows marked 'one column' put their whole week on a single day — either because the source publishes weekly or because that is simply where this week landed — so their blank cells are missing resolution, not quiet days. Each product is counted once per board, on the earliest date that board gave it, which is why the cells add up to the week column.
Busiest day on the daily boards: Tue (1,238). The 5 boards that landed on one column are excluded from that claim — their whole week lands on one column, which would invent a rhythm that isn't there.
Every axis we tag on, at once
We describe each product along 0 axes — who it's for, what it plugs into, what it runs on, what language it speaks. Here is all 0 for this week's cohort, each panel scaled to its own top value. Colour marks the family the axis belongs to, the same grouping the site menu uses.
Each panel shows its top five values and its own n — panels are not comparable to each other, only within themselves. A product can carry more than one value on the same axis (two languages, three integrations), which is why the rows do not sum to n. These tags come from the reading pass, which had covered 99.9% of this cohort (6,421 of 6,429) when the page was built. Unlike the launch counts, that figure is not frozen: a product read after publication changes these panels, so treat them as the state of the reading rather than a closed measurement.
What got built this week
Every other axis on this page describes a property — who a tool is for, what it plugs into, what it refuses to do. This one is the noun: what the thing actually does. Every one of our 146 topics saw at least one launch this week. The list was not invented in a meeting: it comes from reading the products one by one and grouping the sentences until the groups stopped moving.

What kind of thing shipped, and in what language
Two different questions, two different forms. 'Kind' is a part-to-whole split, so it reads as one circle — and the circle only closes because everything outside the top five is drawn as its own slice. Language is a set of independent tags — a product can speak three — so it reads as a ranked list, not a pie.
No kind tags on this week's cohort.

What we actually read
Every product here was read, not just counted: a language model reads the description its makers published and writes a one-line summary plus up to five judgement fields. A field is left empty when the description does not say it, so these bars measure what the source text actually contained as much as what we wrote.
Which boards carried them
One product can appear on several boards, so these add up to more than the week's total. Board size here is reach for that week only — not a ranking of the boards themselves.

Fastest movers this week
Not the loudest launch — the ones that kept moving after it. Showing 4 of 2,931 products from this week that shipped at least one day since launching and have a screenshot to show; these are the ones with the most shipping days.
Gone before anyone looked
Launched this week and already not answering — 8 of 20 shown, shortest-lived first. The number next to each is how many days we could still reach it, which is also the honest limit of what we know about it.

Questions this week's data answers
Everything below is generated from the figures on this page — same window, same method, nothing added. It is written as questions because that is how both people and language models look things up.
The week in numbers
How many products launched on public launch boards in the week of Sep 7 – 13, 2026?
6,429 products launched across 12 public launch boards in the week of Sep 7 – 13, 2026. Tablif dates each launch by the board's own launch date rather than by the day the product was discovered, and only publishes a week once all seven of its days were collected.
How many of the products launched in Sep 7 – 13, 2026 were still online afterwards?
98.8% were still answering — 6,351 of 6,429. 20 had already stopped responding and 58 could not be determined because the site sat behind a bot wall or timed out. "Still answering" means the site returns a response, which is not the same as the product being maintained.
Which day of the week do most indie products launch?
Tue was the busiest day in the week of Sep 7 – 13, 2026, with 1,238 launches. That figure counts only boards that publish daily; the boards that release once a week put their entire week on a single day and would invent a rhythm that is not there.
How many products launched on more than one board in the same week?
166 of the 6,429 products launched in Sep 7 – 13, 2026 appeared on two or more of the boards Tablif watches. Cross-posting is why the per-board figures add up to more than the week's total.
How many newly launched products went quiet straight away?
20 products launched in Sep 7 – 13, 2026 were no longer answering when Tablif last checked, out of 6,429 that week. A site that stops answering has not necessarily been abandoned, but it is the earliest external signal available.
How much of this data is checked by a person rather than a machine?
6,421 of the 6,429 products launched in Sep 7 – 13, 2026 were read and summarised. The reading is done by a language model over each product's own description — the text its makers published on the launch board — not by a human editor and not by copying a third-party review. 0 carry a written explanation of how the product works, 0 a note on who it suits, 0 a pricing note and 0 an explicit caveat; a field is left empty when the description does not state it, rather than filled with a guess. The counts, liveness checks and price moves are measured automatically; these notes are written.
Where they launched
How many products launched on Product Hunt in the week of Sep 7 – 13, 2026?
4,847 products launched on Product Hunt in the week of Sep 7 – 13, 2026 — the largest of the 12 boards Tablif watches, out of 6,429 distinct products that week. Because a product can be posted to several boards, the per-board figures deliberately overlap and do not sum to the week's total.
How many products launched on PeerPush in the week of Sep 7 – 13, 2026?
PeerPush carried 464 launches in the week of Sep 7 – 13, 2026, against 4,847 on Product Hunt. Boards are counted from their own launch dates, and a product cross-posted to two boards is counted by both.
How many products launched on Uneed in the week of Sep 7 – 13, 2026?
Uneed carried 305 launches in the week of Sep 7 – 13, 2026, against 4,847 on Product Hunt. Boards are counted from their own launch dates, and a product cross-posted to two boards is counted by both.
How many products launched on TinyLaunch in the week of Sep 7 – 13, 2026?
TinyLaunch carried 289 launches in the week of Sep 7 – 13, 2026, against 4,847 on Product Hunt. Boards are counted from their own launch dates, and a product cross-posted to two boards is counted by both.
How big are the smaller launch boards?
In the week of Sep 7 – 13, 2026 the remaining 8 boards carried Peerlist 245, Fazier 135, BetaList 105, Tiny Startups 101, OpenHunts 56, MicroLaunch 24, Smol Launch 20, Devhunt 17. Together they account for 703 listings — smaller boards are not necessarily quieter markets, they are narrower ones.
Answers cover Sep 7 – 13, 2026only and were computed from Tablif's own daily collection across 12 launch boards. How these numbers are measured.
What this report can't tell you
Every number above has an edge. These are the ones we know about.
- Twelve boards is not the whole market. Plenty of products launch to a mailing list, a Discord, or nowhere at all. Those never enter this report, and nothing here should be read as “everything that shipped”.
- “Still answering” is not “still alive”. We ask the site for a response. A parked page answers; a healthy product behind a bot wall does not. 58 of this week's launches sit in that gap.
- Tags come from what the product says about itself. Every axis above is read off the product's own description. A tool that never says who it is for will not appear under any audience — that is our blind spot, not its absence.
- One week is a week. Survival, shipping rhythm and price only mean something across months. Ask again in ninety days.
- measured that week
- measured today
Every figure on this page carries one of those two badges. A number without a badge would be a number without a date, and that is how reports start lying.
