THE BOARD

A BetaPage alternative now that BetaPage is PitchWall, a curated daily feed with a 30-day queue

BetaPage is PitchWall now, and PitchWall is a curated daily feed for AI tools and SaaS with a large claimed newsletter. If you want a listing page that stays, a do-follow link and a possible newsletter mention, and you can either wait 30 days or pay $49 to wait two weeks, submit there.

If you want to be on a page today, at a position you price, for as long as nobody pays more, The Board lists a brand for a dollar, ranks it by what it paid, and has the traffic counted by Fathom in the open.

The Board is ours, so read this with that in mind. Every listing on it is a paid placement, its position is decided by money and by nothing else, and nothing on it is editorial. The figures for BetaPage were read from its own pages on 6 September 2026 and are linked at the foot.

What BetaPage is, and what it costs

BetaPage no longer exists as a site. On 6 September 2026 every betapage.co address returned a permanent redirect to the same path on pitchwall.co, and PitchWall's own line, 65,000+ products published since 2015, counts the BetaPage years in. PitchWall is a discovery feed for AI tools, SaaS products and tech startups: products appear in a New Products list ordered by time, with a Featured band above it. Every submission is reviewed by hand, and service businesses, non-product listings and landing pages without a working demo are turned away.

Three plans on the submit page (6 September 2026). Free: one day on the home page, a minimum 30-day wait, a do-follow link and a newsletter mention that is not guaranteed. Pro: $49, two days on the home page, a two-week wait. Premium: $99, two days on the home page on your chosen date, or as early as tomorrow. Above them the advertising page sells a Website Ad at $199 a month, a Spotlight Ad at $899 a month for the single slot at the top of the site, and newsletter sponsorships at $199 and $599. The terms carry no date and no refund clause, and no payment processor is named.

The reach is PitchWall's own, and the pages disagree: 500,000+ monthly visitors and 50,000+ subscribers on the home and submit pages, 100K+ active users and 45K+ subscribers in the FAQ. A stork.ai review dated 1 August 2026 estimated 7 visits a month, which is a different kind of measurement and a long way from the first. Sponsors are promised a post-campaign report on impressions and clicks; a listing is not.

The price of a place, and the price of the top

Two prices matter: what it costs to be on the page at all, and what it costs to be the one everybody sees first. Drawn to scale, with The Board’s top spot read live from the board.

A log scale: every gridline is ten times the last, which is the only way a dollar and a five-figure sum fit on one line. Prices on the left are BetaPage’s as read on 6 September 2026; the top spot on The Board is $101 as this page was built and changes as the board does.

How The Board works, for somebody leaving BetaPage

PitchWall's queue is the thing a BetaPage searcher is used to: submit, wait 30 days or pay to wait less, and get a day or two on a feed ordered by the clock. The Board has no queue and no clock. A dollar puts a brand on the board now, at whatever rank a dollar buys on a page ordered by what each brand has paid, and it stays there until somebody pays more. Nobody reviews it for fit; the terms decide what may be listed and money decides where.

Rank 01 costs a dollar over whoever holds it, and every amount is printed on the page, so the top is a price you read rather than an $899 slot you rent by the month. Hold it for thirty days and the season ends: the standings freeze on a permanent page and every amount resets. The page views and outbound clicks are counted by Fathom on a public dashboard, which is the kind of count PitchWall gives its sponsors and not its listings.

Where BetaPage falls short, and where it wins

Falls short
  • The wait is the product. Free is 30 days or more, $49 is two weeks, and the day you finally get is one day on a feed that moves on by the clock.
  • Everything is reviewed and the door is narrow: no service businesses, no landing pages, nothing that is not a tech product, and a newsletter mention that the free plan says is not guaranteed.
  • The terms have no date, no refund clause and no company name, and the visitor figures disagree between its own pages.
Wins
  • The claimed audience is large: 500,000+ monthly visitors and a newsletter of 45,000 to 50,000, and a sponsor gets a report on what a campaign did.
  • The listing page is permanent and carries a do-follow link on every plan, free included.
  • Ten years of history: the site has been publishing products since 2015, under one name or the other.

Which to pick

Pick BetaPage if
  • You sell an AI tool or a SaaS product and a permanent listing page with a link is worth a month's wait.
  • A chosen launch date for $99 with a newsletter mention fits a launch plan you already have.
  • The newsletter's claimed reach matters more to you than a count you can verify.
Pick The Board if
  • You want to be on a page today, not in thirty days.
  • You want a position that lasts until somebody pays more, not a day on a feed.
  • You want dated terms, a named founder, and a counter run by somebody who is not selling the slot.

Claim a spot from $1

A listing is a logo, a line and a link. Rank 01 costs $1 more than whoever holds it, every amount on the page is public, and the traffic is on a Fathom dashboard anyone can open.

Questions people ask about a BetaPage alternative

What happened to BetaPage?
It became PitchWall. On 6 September 2026 every betapage.co address redirected permanently to pitchwall.co, and directories recorded the rename as early as September 2024. PitchWall's products published since 2015 figure is BetaPage's history counted in. There is no BetaPage to submit to any more; a submission goes to PitchWall.
Is there a free BetaPage alternative?
PitchWall itself, which BetaPage now is, has a free plan with a 30-day wait. Beyond it, Peerlist Launchpad is free and weekly, Dev Hunt is free for developer tools, and Show HN is free for anything with a demo. The Board is a dollar, for a position that stays until somebody pays more.
Is The Board a BetaPage alternative?
For being seen by people watching new brands, yes, and it works the other way round. BetaPage, now PitchWall, is a curated feed you wait to enter, ordered by the clock; The Board is a public leaderboard where every listing is a paid placement, the position is decided by what each brand paid, and it lasts until somebody pays more.
What does The Board cost compared to BetaPage?
PitchWall, which BetaPage now is, lists free after a 30-day wait, $49 for a two-week wait and $99 for a chosen date, with the top slot on the site an $899-a-month Spotlight Ad (submit and advertise pages, 6 September 2026). A listing on The Board is $1, rank 01 costs $1 more than the holder paid, and every amount on the page is public. Nothing bills again.
How long is the PitchWall waiting list?
The FAQ says free listings typically wait 30 days or more before publication. The $49 Pro Launch waits two weeks and the $99 Premium Launch goes on your chosen date, or as early as tomorrow (submit page, 6 September 2026). The Board has no queue; a listing is on the board when the payment clears.
Does PitchWall accept every product?
No. Every submission is reviewed by hand, and the FAQ turns away service businesses such as agencies and studios, non-tech and non-product listings, and landing pages without a working demo. Beta and alpha products are accepted. The Board reviews nothing for fit; its terms say what may be listed and money decides where.
What happens when somebody outbids me?
Your listing moves down one place and stays on the board; the amount you paid never goes down. You get one mail saying who passed you and what taking the position back would cost, and you can raise by any whole-dollar amount or leave it where it is. There is no queue to rejoin: waiting costs nothing.
Can other brands damage my listing?
Yes, and it is part of the game. Anyone can buy one of four kinds of sabotage against a listing, which changes how it looks or whether its link works for a few hours, never what it paid or its real rank. Every kind wears off on its own, you can clear it early or buy protection ahead of time, and nobody is told who attacked whom.
Do I get a backlink from The Board?
Not one to buy the listing for. PitchWall lists a do-follow link on every plan; The Board's outbound links go through a counted redirect, and the badge you can embed carries rel=sponsored, which is what an honest paid placement has to do. Buy the position for the people who see it and click it, both of which are counted and shown.
