Every real visit buys your startup 5 more minutes before the graveyard.
$1
Outbid for $1 · #1 is Planoa
Last updated · Content reviewed
Clicktolive is a countdown-based board rather than a bid-ranked one: admitting a startup costs $1 and starts a 60-minute clock that real visits extend by 5 minutes each. At the time of this review the live ward is empty and one project, Planoa, sits in the public Graveyard after being rescued twice before finally flatlining; reviving it costs $10 for another 60 minutes.
Our take
The mechanic is the most distinctive thing about this batch: instead of paying to outrank a rival, you are paying to keep a countdown alive with real traffic, and the empty ICU ward at review time is itself an honest demonstration of what happens when visits stop coming. It is a clever idea for makers who want a traffic-dependent, self-policing leaderboard, but with zero live projects and one flatlined one, there is nothing here to rank or compare yet. Worth checking back once it has more than a single graveyard entry.

How does clicktolive.lol work?
Admit a startup for $1 with a 60-minute clock; every qualifying visit adds 5 minutes, and the clock counts down constantly rather than resetting daily. When it hits zero the project moves to the public Graveyard, where a flat $10 Defibrillator fee revives it for exactly 60 minutes. The live ICU ward is empty at the time of this review; one project, Planoa, sits in the Graveyard after 2 rescues and 0 revivals.
