Rules

Six websites defend this homepage. Catch one in the maze and you take its slot.

Taking part

• Taking part is free. There is no payment, no credit card, and no sign-up.
• Playing asks only for your website URL, company name, and a one-line description. No email address is required.
• Only six real companies can be live on the homepage at any time.
• Catching one defender claims that defender’s slot.
• Losing a round does not place your company on the homepage.
• Retries are unlimited.
• A company may hold at most one live slot. If your company is already live, you can still play, but the round is practice and your slot will not change.
• Empty slots are filled by clearly-labelled training bots. Catching a training bot claims an open slot and displaces no real company.

Fair play

• Rounds are validated server-side. Suspicious results may be invalidated.
• Submissions may be moderated, and a domain may be blocked.
• You must be authorised to promote the website you submit.

What we do not promise

• There is no guaranteed traffic from a homepage slot.
• There is no cash prize.
• TrendsFast does not influence results. The outcome depends only on what happens in the maze.
• A slot lasts only until another founder catches you.
