SubmitRank Open Directory

An open, community-maintained directory of places where makers can submit and launch products, tools, companies, and creative work.

The dataset is maintained in public through GitHub pull requests. SubmitRank is the original curator and provides a separate product experience with rankings, filters, submission tracking, and other enrichment.

Use the data

• sites/ contains the human-editable source: one YAML file per domain.
• dist/sites.json is the generated JSON dataset.
• dist/sites.csv is the generated flat CSV dataset.
• dist/stats.json contains summary counts.
• schema/site.schema.json defines the machine-readable schema.
• docs/schema.md explains the fields and enum values.

The source files are canonical. Files under dist/ are generated and must not be edited by hand.

Contribute

• Add a site
• Update a listing
• Report a closed or broken submission page
• Fork the repository, edit a file under sites/, and open a pull request

New listings must accept submissions from third parties and should include a public evidence URL. Self-submissions are welcome when the relationship is disclosed. Read CONTRIBUTING.md before opening a pull request.

Local development

Requires Node.js 20 or newer.

npm install
npm run validate
npm test
npm run build
npm run check

npm run build deterministically regenerates JSON, CSV, statistics, and the counters near the top of this README. CI checks that generated files match the YAML source.

Data boundaries

This repository contains public directory facts only. It intentionally excludes private notes, user data, submission history, third-party traffic estimates, proprietary rankings and tiers, screenshots, credentials, and deployment configuration.

Contributions merged here remain in this repository. They are not automatically synchronized to SubmitRank.com or its production database. The website and this dataset may therefore differ. See DATA_POLICY.md.
