One clear page
Hero, offer, proof, FAQ and one next step. No carousel, no popup, no cookie banner.
Free template · zero build · Apache-2.0
Ship something
people can use.
A launch page with the boring parts already done: SEO, Open Graph, privacy, accessibility, a working form and a public A+ audit. Fork it, change the words, ship today.
No account. No build step. No tracking. No fake proof required.
What's inside
Everything a first launch forgets.
Not a framework. Not a page builder. A small, readable page that already handles the things people check before they trust you.
A form that works
Email capture with validation, a honeypot and an honest error state. Swap the endpoint in one file.
SEO + social
Title, description, canonical, Open Graph, Twitter card, JSON-LD, sitemap and robots.
Privacy + terms
Plain-language starting pages. Not legal advice, but better than an empty footer.
Agent-readable
llms.txt, AGENTS.md, semantic HTML and copy that works without JavaScript.
Audited in public
The live demo runs through LaunchGrade. The report is dated and linked. Your fork can do the same.
The demo is the proof
This page gets
audited too.
FastPress Start is built by LaunchGrade, a free zero-dependency CLI that checks 53 things across conversion, trust, technical, SEO, social, accessibility and AI-agent readiness.
We do not ask you to trust a screenshot. The live report is public, dated and regenerated when the page changes.

The 15-minute edit
Fork it. Change five things. Ship.

1
Make it yours
Click “Use this template”, rename the repo, and change the name, headline and offer in
index.html. -
2
Point the form at you
Open
config.jsand replace the demo form endpoint and email. FormSubmit activation takes one click. -

Replace the proof
Use a real link, a real report or a real quote. If you do not have one, delete the section. Do not invent one.
Full instructions, including Pages setup and what to delete: the README .
Why this exists
Most launch pages fail on the boring parts.
No privacy page. A form that silently fails. A blank card when someone shares the link. Copy that says “revolutionary” and proves nothing.
FastPress Start is the page we wish we had for every small launch: readable, fast, accessible and honest. It is built and maintained by Meet Shah at FastPress Labs.
Use it for a product, a newsletter, a studio, a job search or a weird idea. If it helps you ship, it did its job.

Questions
Before you fork.
Is FastPress Start really free?
Yes. The template is Apache-2.0. Use it for a personal or commercial launch. No account, no email gate, no attribution required. A link back is nice, not required.
Do I need a build step?
No. It is one HTML file, one CSS file and one JavaScript file. Open it in a browser or serve the folder with any static host. GitHub Pages works out of the box.
How does the form work?
The demo uses FormSubmit to send submissions to FastPress Labs. Before you publish, replace the endpoint in config.js with your own FormSubmit address or form backend. Never put a secret key in client-side code.
Will my page score A+ too?
Maybe. The live demo does. Your copy, hosting and form can change the score. Run the free LaunchGrade audit after you edit it and fix what applies to you. Do not chase 100 for its own sake.
Can I remove sections?
Yes. Remove the proof section if you do not have proof. Remove the form if you do not want email. Remove the FAQ if it does not help. Do not replace a missing section with an invented number or testimonial.
One next step
