For founders who build

You built it. Now let it sell.

You ship every week, and marketing is the thing that never gets done. Propel reads your website and, once you connect it, your code. Tell it what shipped, and it drafts the posts, emails and pages you only have to approve.

Every release, without and with Propel.

The release ships either way. What happens next is the part that usually waits.

The launch thread Written late, if at all. Six versions, ranked against your best posts. You pick.How
Email to your users Skipped this release. Coming: drafted from what shipped, waiting for your yes.How
AI assistants No idea what they say about you. Asked in your category. The page they are missing, drafted.How

      What worked

      Posts against your usual, AI mentions with a range.

Example week, times and product. Each Propel step is something it does today.

Your name stays yours.

Anything said as you waits for you until that channel has earned the right to go on its own, and you can take that back at any time. Every channel earns more room only on results, never past its limit.

Limits read from the product, 12 November 2026 Every limit, explained

Always waits for you

  • Hacker News, Reddit and Product Hunt: it prepares, you post
  • Anything that spends money
  • Anything in your code: it only reads it

Can earn more freedom

  • Articles on your own siteup to: It runs on its own
  • Your product's own accountup to: It runs on its own
  • Email to your usersup to: It runs on its own
  • Cold emailup to: It posts unless you stop it
  • Posts in your own nameup to: It runs on its own

Each channel starts at "It drafts, you approve" and steps up only on results. One bad claim drops it straight back.

What do founders ask?

Do I have to connect my GitHub?

No. Start with your website. Connect GitHub later through a read-only app, so it reads what you built. It never changes your code.

Will it post in my name without asking?

Not at first. Posts in your own name wait for your yes until that channel has earned the right to go on its own, and you can take that back at any time.

Can it launch my product on Hacker News?

It prepares the title, the link and the first comment, and opens the page for you. The last click is yours. It never posts in communities for you.

How much of my time does it take?

A few minutes each morning: one queue with what finished and the few things waiting for you. Approve, edit or skip, and get back to building.
