A dated calendar for six directories
Pick the Monday-or-any start of the week you want to launch in. The page suggests one submission date per partner platform from cadence facts already used elsewhere on this site: Aura++ daily at 8:00 UTC as stated on Aura++; EarlyHunt, IndieHunt, MakerHunt, and SideHunt on the Monday in that week at 8:00 UTC; Uno Directory anytime as a permanent listing. Optionally add a Product Hunt launch day for context. Product Hunt is not part of the six-directory license.
The output is a week strip, a table of suggested dates, a copyable checklist, and an optional .ics file. Nothing is booked. You still submit on each site's form.
How suggested dates are chosen
Aura++ runs every day, so the calendar pins it to your week start — or to your Product Hunt day when you set one, so both daily boards share a day. The four weekly hunt sites share the Monday inside your seven-day window. Uno Directory has no open time; the table marks it as submit anytime and suggests the last day of the week once the live URL is stable. You can send Uno on any other day.
Treat every time as a schedule note. A license does not reserve an Aura++ free slot, and a Monday cadence is not a featuring promise on the hunt boards.
Checklist, .ics, and sibling tools
Copy the checklist into your notes, or download the .ics to drop timed reminders into a calendar app. Timed events use 8:00 UTC for Aura++ and the weekly hunts. Product Hunt uses the historical 12:01 AM Pacific open when you set a day. Uno is an all-day reminder because it is not a timed board.
For a tick-style seven-day view, use the launch week planner. To compare per-site fees with the $300 monthly license, use the bulk launch cost calculator. To draft social posts after you pick dates, use the launch post generator. Directory Premium fees differ by site — check each site's /pricing before you pay without a license.
What the license does not change
A Premium Launcher license is $300 per month. It covers premium launches on Aura++, EarlyHunt, IndieHunt, Uno Directory, MakerHunt, and SideHunt. It does not change form limits or directory editorial rules, and it does not submit for you. See pricing for the subscription.

Questions
Does this calendar book a slot on any directory?
No. It only suggests submission dates in your browser from each platform's public cadence. It does not create a post, reserve a hunt slot, or submit your product. You still use each site's own form.
What cadence does this page use for the six partner platforms?
Aura++ is listed as daily launches, typically 8:00 UTC, as stated on Aura++. EarlyHunt, IndieHunt, MakerHunt, and SideHunt follow a weekly Monday cycle, typically 8:00 UTC. Uno Directory is a permanent listing you can submit anytime. Those are schedule notes, not featuring guarantees.
Why is Product Hunt optional?
Product Hunt is a separate daily board and is not one of the six Premium Launcher partner platforms. Enter a Product Hunt launch day only if you want it on the same calendar and in the .ics file. Leave it blank to plan the six directories alone.
Is my calendar stored on your servers?
No. The dates and checklist run in your browser. Nothing you select on this page is uploaded to Premium Launcher. Closing the tab clears the view.
How does this differ from the launch week planner?
This page is a dated submission calendar for the six partner platforms with a table view, a copyable checklist, and an optional .ics download. The launch week planner is a separate seven-day checklist tool. Use whichever fits your workflow, or both.
