Startups Wiki / Leaderboard
Top 100 Makers
Product builders ranked by audience, revenue and how far their work reaches.
How the ranking works
15 points for X followers, 30 for monthly revenue, 45 for documented product reach and 10 for the largest disclosed funding round in USD. Annualized revenue and ARR are divided by 12. Reach uses one documented count, such as users, projects or downloads.
points = weight × clamp(log(value / floor) / log(cap / floor), 0, 1)
The floor is 100 for followers, monthly revenue and reach, and $100K for funding. The respective caps are 1M, $100M/month, 100M and $1B. An unreported metric is shown as a dash and contributes no points. Total scores sort descending, with impact and name breaking ties.
Only makers with a published Startups Wiki profile are eligible.
