Every launch on Discovera is ranked by votes from members like you. Your vote is a field note on what deserves attention. To vote, sign in and confirm your email address. You can cast one vote per listing, and only on live launches.
The voting trail
There's one rule that keeps the path clear: you must vote for someone else's launch before you can vote for your own. This keeps the ranking honest and rooted in genuine discovery.
We run quick human checks now and then to make sure votes are real. Rate limits per hour and per day stop abuse, and any suspicious bursts are flagged and held for review before they count.
Why money never changes the map
Votes are separate from everything else on the site. The billboard is paid ranking. Verification badges come from data. Domain Rating is factual. None of these move the needle on your vote count.
Active community members do earn influence, which can give their votes more weight—a natural recognition of those who spot rare finds most often. But that influence comes only from genuine participation, never from paying for it. The trail stays true.
Questions people ask
- Can I vote for my own launch right away?
- No. You must vote for another launch first. After that, you can vote for your own.
- Do paid features change how votes are counted?
- No. Votes, the billboard, verification and factual data are all separate. Payment never affects your vote count.
- Why does my vote sometimes not count?
- We check for abuse using rate limits and human review. Suspicious bursts are flagged and held until reviewed.
