For Hackathon Projects: Life After Demo Day, Free

Most hackathon projects vanish the week after judging. Post yours here free and give it a real audience, a real page, and a reason to keep going.

// always free

Free to submit. Free to browse. Free forever — no card, no trial, no catch.

Why hackathon teams use rankraw

  • Free listing the same day your demo ends.
  • Real users instead of judges scoring a slide deck.
  • Changelogs turn a weekend prototype into visible progress.
  • A permanent page you can link from your résumé or repo.

Your first week after the event

  1. Post the project while the energy is still high.
  2. Rewrite the pitch for strangers, not for judges.
  3. Fix the one thing everyone stumbled on during the demo.
  4. Ship a changelog and share it with your team's networks.

Turning a prototype into a product

Momentum ranking rewards teams that keep shipping. A hackathon build that gets three small updates in three weeks will outrank a polished project that went quiet.

FAQ

Can I post a hackathon project?
Yes. Hackathon builds are welcome as long as the link works and someone can actually try it.
What if the project is unfinished?
Post it as-is and label it early. Changelogs let you show progress week by week.
Can my whole team be credited?
One teammate owns the listing, but you can name the full team in the description and share the link together.
