# Introduction | Waitlyze Docs

> Create a waitlist, publish it, and grow your launch audience.

Canonical: https://waitlyze.com/docs


Waitlyze is a waitlist product: create a waitlist in your workspace, design its page, publish it, then follow signups, referrals, email, and integrations from one place.

This guide mirrors the app. Each waitlist has **Overview, Page, Subscribers, Analytics, Emails, and Waitlist settings**. Workspace-wide controls live under **Settings**.

## Where things live [#where-things-live]

Each waitlist has six sections - **Overview, Page, Subscribers, Analytics, Emails, and Waitlist settings** - mapped with routes and permissions on the [Waitlists](/docs/waitlists) page. Workspace controls such as profile, members, and the Resend connection live under **Settings** - see [Workspace and roles](/docs/workspace). Webhooks and notification destinations are scoped to an individual waitlist.
