For the week of 24 August to 30 August, a fleet of 36 startups cleared the harbor to launch on Maidensail, drawing a total of 848 votes. Ainbae led the podium with 267 votes, followed by SubmitMap with 87 votes and SoloToolkit with 75 votes. Of these active vessels, eight are currently raising capital and five are open to acquisition, though zero buyer interest signals were logged.
With thirty-six launches but zero buyer interest signals recorded, founders looking for acquisition or capital must prepare for a patient stay in the harbor. Furthermore, the voting distribution shows a steep drop-off after the top spot, requiring a strong push to secure the podium.
Fleet departs 31 Aug – 6 Sept with 45 of 45 berths claimed.
Fair winds,
