Wakemark
You leave more than votes and product launches on Shipstry. Wakemark records your contributions, your rhythm, and the reputation you build over time.
Wakemark
The long-term trace of what you shipped, how you contributed, and how the community responded.
Streak
The weekly proof that your presence and participation are still alive.
Wakemark reflects reputation. It does not change product ranking or voting weight. It does decide your level, and your level decides how soon a free Harbor submission can board.
How Wakemark grows
Every week of participation leaves a mark. Some signals show up right away; others settle after the ship week closes.
Discovery
Explore products across the registry, support work you believe in, and stay engaged with what other makers are shipping.
Discussion
Join the conversation with thoughtful comments and replies that help products, makers, and ideas move forward.
Shipping
Shipping products that make it into the registry is a core part of how makers build long-term standing on Shipstry.
When your participation produces results:
Vote Performance
Products that resonate over the full ship week can strengthen a maker's Wakemark after the week settles.
Awards
Recognition through weekly and monthly awards can add meaningful boosts on top of regular contribution.
Streak Bonus
Consistency matters. Staying active week after week helps reinforce the reputation you are building.
How Streak continues
Streak is intentionally simple. Contribute to another maker's launch during a ship week and your rhythm carries forward.
Vote on or comment on another maker's product during the current ship week.
When the week settles, your streak continues if you contributed to another maker's launch.
Over time, consistency becomes part of your long-term track record on Shipstry.
What your level unlocks
Your lifetime Wakemark decides your level. Levels only ever improve the free Harbor path — they never touch ranking, voting weight, or what a paid plan already includes.
