Beacon — Marketplace for AI Agents, Skills & MCPs

A Product Hunt–style launch desk for AI agents, skills, and MCP servers. Hunters rank what they install. Makers ship. You run the paper — ads, edition weeks, and a staff desk included.

Live demo credentials https://beacon-gamma-ruddy.vercel.app/ Admin (staff desk — read-only on the live preview) - Email: `admin@demo.com` - Password: `admin123` User (hunter — vote, mark installs, comment) - Email: `user@demo.com` - Password: `user123`

Built as a complete web app: catalog, detail pages, submit flow, hunter accounts, staff admin, labeled ads, and revenue booking. Cream editorial UI. Dark and light. Desktop and pocket.

What you get

Daily hunt — ranked list of agents, skills, and MCPs
Launch of the day — featured product with install command
Three directories — Agents, Skills, MCPs, each with its own facts
Launch pages — description, votes, installs, maker, discussion
Submit a launch — makers file a product for review
Launch calendar — upcoming slots, bookable days
Hunter accounts — sign in, avatar / press mark, votes
Staff desk — catalog CRUD, users, editions, notices, ads, calendar, makers, revenues
Labeled ads — hunt row, directories, launch page, footer. Never looks like a rank
Edition sponsorship — “presented by” on the week, separate from the ranking
Revenue book — expected / invoiced / paid, USD · INR · EUR

Why it sells

The category is hot: agents, skills, MCP servers
Buyers get a working marketplace, not a landing-page mock

Design is editorial, not another purple SaaS kit
