FreeWaitlists

Create a waitlist in seconds — hosted page, widgets, or API.

Most “coming soon” pages lie: they look pretty but they don’t capture intent. FreeWaitlists helps you collect sign-ups fast, then keep them organized so you can actually launch to real people. You can use a hosted waitlist page, drop in widgets, or hit an API if you’d rather wire it into your own stack.

Your launch doesn’t need a landing page. It needs names.

Founders waste weeks polishing a page that converts like a soggy napkin.

Here’s the deal: if you can’t capture emails (and track who’s in), you don’t have “traction”. You have vibes.

FreeWaitlists (freewaitlists.com) is built for the only job that matters pre-launch: collect sign-ups, keep them tidy, and let you ship.

What FreeWaitlists does (without the busywork)

You pick your weapon:

1) Hosted waitlist page

Spin up a clean, hosted page when you don’t want to touch code.

Good for: - quick MVP launches - side projects - “I need this live today” moments

2) Widgets for your site

Already have a homepage? Drop in a widget and start collecting.

No rebuild. No duct tape.

3) API for developers

If you want the waitlist to live inside your app, use the API.

That means you can: - capture sign-ups from any surface (app, docs, pricing page) - keep your own UI - avoid weird form hacks

The stuff founders ask for after week two

FreeWaitlists is set up for the boring-but-critical details: - managing sign-ups (not just collecting them) - exports when you want to move leads into your CRM or email tool - notifications so you don’t miss spikes - custom domain support (because “random subdomain” screams hobby)

It gets worse: most waitlist tools turn into a second product you have to learn.

FreeWaitlists aims for the opposite. Fewer steps. Less setup. More shipping.

Who this is for

  • Indie hackers who want proof before they build the “real” version
  • SaaS teams running pre-launch, beta, or gated access
  • Dev-first founders who want an API and control

If your next milestone is “get 50 people who care”. freewaitlists.com is a fast way to stop guessing and start counting.
