SaaSCity's virtual city tops 1,400 listings as available plots shrink — Sep 1, 2026SaaSCity, a Warsaw-based software-discovery platform that renders each listed product as a building on a 60-by-60 isometric city map, has surpassed 1,400 listed software products with 1,292 of 3,600 plots claimed, and releases new products in weekly batches. The project combines a gamified directory, a weekly launch calendar for startups and AI tools, and a public research database, drawing a contemporary parallel to the Million Dollar Homepage’s pixel-selling concept but tied to active product listings.
