Makers Clash

Makers Clash is where indie apps compete for discovery.

Every maker's dream: launch something and get discovered by people who actually want it. Every judge's problem: finding great indie apps buried in algorithms.

We solved both.

Makers Clash is a gamified voting arena where indie makers submit apps for free, and the community votes in head-to-head battles. Every vote moves two Elo ratings instantly. Every battle builds the live leaderboard. Apps climb by merit alone—no algorithms, no launch fees, no gatekeepers.

For Makers:

• Submit your app for free (no launch fees)
• Get discovered by thousands of real judges
• Watch your Elo rating climb in real-time
• Get honest feedback on your work
• Prove your app's value with transparent metrics

For Judges:

• Vote on indie apps that matter
• Your vote literally moves the leaderboard
• Discover hidden gems before anyone else
• Collect badges and build your judge reputation
• Help shape what the best indie projects are

Why it works:

• Fast, addictive voting (1v1 battles, vote in seconds)
• Live leaderboard you're actively building
• Real indie makers, real apps, zero corporate bloat
• Transparent merit-based ranking (Elo ratings)
• Community-driven discovery (not algorithms)
