Rules

Pay to stand at #1. Reset every week.

Startups bid for rank. Investors browse the board and contact the teams they want.

1. 01

   List a pitch

   Sign in, publish the pitch, the story, and the contact details investors should use. Listing is free. You have no rank until you bid.

2. 02

   Bid for #1

   Opening bid is just $1. To take a rank, beat the standing bid you're passing by at least 10% — you don't need to beat #1, just whoever's rank you want. Highest standing bid takes #1.

3. 03

   Pay only the difference

   Your first bid this week is charged in full. If you are outbid, you get an alert. Re-bid and you are charged only the gap between the new bid and what you already paid this week.

4. 04

   7 days, then reset

   The whole leaderboard wipes every 7 days. Pitches stay. Standing bids go to zero. Last week's ranks move to the tape. Bid again if you want to take the next week.

5. 05

   Investors reach out

   outbid.fund does not broker the intro. Your email and phone, if you add one is public on the pitch. Funds write to you directly.
