The captain's log
A LEADERBOARD
RULED BY DOLLARS.
CaptainBid is a simple, slightly unhinged idea: one public board where the ranking algorithm is money and nothing else. No ads, no SEO, no growth hacks. Brands, indie hackers and lone weirdos bid for position — and everyone can watch it happen live.
HOW THE GAME WORKS
Post your link
Drop a URL or an @handle. We fetch the logo, title and description automatically — your flag is stitched in seconds.
Name your price
Every dollar is a rank. New spots board from $1; pay more than any current holder and their spot is yours — even #3, even #1.
Hold the line
The board re-sorts the moment anyone pays. Get outbid and you slide down. Raise your own bid anytime — you only pay the difference.
NO SMOKE. RECEIPTS.
One public board, sorted by money and nothing else. Every bid, every raid and every rank change is on the record for anyone to see — no hidden algorithm deciding who ranks where.
Payments settle through Dodo Payments. A bid is final the moment it lands — if someone outbids you, your money bought you every minute you spent on top. That's the game, and everyone plays by the same code.
