Quick answer
How do I list my product on Harpd Rank?
Listing a product on Harpd Rank is free and takes one submission. You provide the product name, URL, category and description; Harpd moderates it; once approved it appears on its category board and on the programmatic pages built from that category.

How it works
The mechanics, plainly
Submit at /rank/manage/ → moderation checks that the product is real, public and correctly categorised → approval publishes the listing at 0 Rank Points → claim the listing to prove ownership → optionally spend Credits for permanent Rank Points. Nothing about the listing is gated on payment.
How it compares
Harpd vs the traditional approach
| Aspect | Harpd / this model | Traditional |
|---|---|---|
| Cost to be listed | Free | Often a listing fee or ad spend |
| Approval requirement | Moderation for legitimacy, not editorial fit | Often editorial curation |
| Time to appear | After moderation, immediately public | Queued or never |
| Promotion | Optional Credits, disclosed | Often bundled and undisclosed |
Why it matters
The value of a leaderboard depends on what is on it. Free, moderated entry keeps the board populated by real products rather than by whoever paid, and it means a small team has the same starting position as an incumbent.
Frequently asked questions
What do I need to submit?
A real, publicly reachable product with a name, URL, description and category. Harpd moderates for legitimacy — it is not an editorial selection process.
Can someone else list my product?
Yes, and that is allowed. If it happens, claim the listing to prove ownership and take control of the profile.
How long does moderation take?
Moderation is manual, so timing varies. Submitting a complete listing with a working URL and an accurate description avoids the common causes of a delay.
