LIVE · STARTUPS ARE BEING GRILLED
ABOUT GRILLME
STARTUPS GET TOO MUCH POLITE FEEDBACK.
GrillMe is a public startup auction where founders pay to move up the board. Reach #1 and your product gets put On The Grill.
People answer three questions, leave public roasts, and the startup leaves with a permanent result.
WHY THIS EXISTS
Most startup feedback is too polite.
Friends say "looks great." Founders say "interesting." AI gives you seventeen paragraphs of encouragement.
GrillMe asks something simpler:
- DO YOU GET IT?
- WOULD YOU TRY IT?
- WOULD YOU PAY FOR IT?
Then the internet gets to roast the product.
THEN IT WENT LIVE
Attention gets a queue.
- Founders bid for attention.
- Higher total bid = higher rank.
- #1 gets grilled next.
- The result stays public.
New startups start at $10. Existing founders raise by $1+; top-ups pay only the difference. Intermediate positions are allowed.
