How are the best-of lists picked?

Each one ranks a category's Product Hunt launches in a month by upvotes. A category gets a list for a month once it has at least eight launches in it, so no list is a token handful.

When does this month's list update?

Daily, as new launches come in; the newest launches on file are from October 23, 2026. Past months stay fixed.

Can I contact the makers on these lists?

Yes. Every launch links to its page on Junior with the founders and makers behind it, and subscribers get their verified emails and profiles.
