Built Here's answer

Built Here is the only launch platform built specifically with a European identity. While other platforms are global and US-centric by default, we put European makers front and center. Every submission is editorially reviewed to keep quality high — no pay-to-play, no algorithmic black boxes. It's a curated stage, not a firehose. Think of it as Hacker News for European makers: opinionated, community-driven, and focused.

Built Here's answer

If you're an indie maker building something in Europe — or building something for a European audience — Built Here is where your launch actually gets seen by the right people. On larger global platforms, small indie products get buried under VC-backed launches and big-name drops. Here, every product gets a fair shot. The community is niche by design, which means higher signal, more relevant feedback, and connections with people who understand your market.

Built Here's answer

Solo founders, indie hackers, and small teams shipping SaaS products, developer tools, no-code apps, and digital products. Many are bootstrapped, most are European, and all of them are builders who ship. Our secondary audience is early adopters and tech enthusiasts who enjoy discovering new products before anyone else — especially tools coming out of the European maker scene.

Built Here's answer

Built Here started from a simple frustration: there was no good place to discover what European indie makers were building. The big launch platforms skew heavily toward US-based, VC-funded products. European builders were scattered across Twitter threads, Slack groups, and subreddits with no dedicated home. So I built one. It's a solo project, built in public, using the same indie hacker mindset it was made to serve. The name says it all — built here, by us, for us.

Next.js (App Router) with TypeScript on the frontend, hosted on Cloudflare. Supabase for the database, authentication, and row-level security. Tailwind CSS and shadcn/ui for the interface. Zod for runtime validation. The whole stack is chosen for simplicity, speed, and staying on free tiers as long as possible — true to the indie hacker way.

Built Here is in early launch — we're building the community from the ground up. Early users include indie makers from across Europe submitting SaaS tools, developer utilities, and productivity apps.
