About Waitlistz
Waitlistz is a hosted tool for building a waitlist page without code before a product launch. You can use a hosted page, embed a form on your own site, or build a custom interface on top of its API. A drag-and-drop editor with real-time preview controls colors, fonts and layouts, and the form can be embedded in WordPress, Webflow or Notion.
Every signup receives a unique referral link, and a gamified leaderboard lets people move up the queue by inviting others. A dashboard shows views, clicks, signups and conversion in real time, with UTM tracking for traffic sources and CSV or JSON export. Email verification is built in. The same editor can build complete landing pages hosted on a custom domain, with SEO tools.
For developers there is a REST API with bearer-token authentication, webhooks, Slack notifications for new signups and embeddable widgets. The site describes the product as free while it is being built, with no credit card needed, and has a separate pricing page.
