Tiny Startups
Daily leaderboard plus a list of bootstrapped founders. Excellent if your buyer is another maker. Useless if you sell to dentists.
Tiny Startups pairs a daily-style board with a newsletter aimed at bootstrapped founders and early adopters. The platform has claimed on the order of 20,000 founders on that list; treat the number as directional. The newsletter feature is the actual prize.
