Introduction to LAUNCH
LAUNCH is the first marketplace for tokenized mobile applications. We enable app founders to convert their apps into tradeable ERC-20 tokens, creating a new asset class backed by real metrics and revenue.
For Founders
Raise capital without giving up equity. Let your users become investors.
For Investors
Invest in apps you love. Trade tokens backed by real performance metrics.

How It Works
LAUNCH uses Clanker to deploy ERC-20 tokens on Base, creating instant liquidity pools for each tokenized app.
Verify Ownership
Connect your Apple Developer or Google Play Console account. We use OAuth to verify you own the app you're listing.
Configure Tokenomics
Set your total supply, initial market cap, founder allocation, and vesting schedule. We provide sensible defaults based on your app's metrics.
Deploy via Clanker
One click deploys your token contract and creates a liquidity pool on Uniswap V4. Your token is immediately tradeable.
Trade & Grow
Users can buy and sell your app tokens. As your app grows, token value is tied to real metrics like downloads, revenue, and DAU.
Quick Start
Get your app tokenized in under 5 minutes.
Connect your wallet
Any EVM wallet works. We recommend Coinbase Wallet or MetaMask.
Paste your App Store or Play Store link
We'll automatically pull in your app's name, icon, category, and metrics.
Verify ownership (optional)
Connect your developer account for a verified badge and access to real metrics.
Set tokenomics & deploy
Choose your initial market cap and allocation, then deploy with one click.

The listing process is designed to be simple while ensuring quality.
Requirements
- Your app must be live on the App Store or Google Play Store

Tokenomics Guide
Understanding the key parameters when tokenizing your app.
Total Supply
The total number of tokens that will ever exist. Standard is 100,000,000. This is fixed at deployment and cannot be changed.
Initial Market Cap
The starting valuation of your token in ETH. This determines the initial token price. We recommend 5-20 ETH for most apps.
Founder Allocation
Percentage of tokens reserved for the founder team. Recommended: 15-25%. These tokens are subject to vesting.
Vesting Period
How long founder tokens are locked before becoming transferable. Standard periods are 12, 24, or 36 months with linear unlock.
Clanker Integration
LAUNCH uses Clanker v4.0.0 for trustless token deployment on Base.
