How the index works

01

Hosts declare

Claim with a work email, instant and domain-verified. Then declare layer by layer, each one public, private, or hidden. A filled-in profile shows customers the engineering behind their site.

Make your move →
02

Vendors grow

Every declaration moves market share. You earn your layer by being run, not by buying placement — gold, silver, and bronze at every layer, ranked on what hosts actually declare.

03

Open data

Stacks, associations, market share, and the money behind every vendor — open to everyone. Hosts use it to evaluate what to run next, and vendors use it to find the hosts they're not on yet.

The taxonomy

None of it works without a shared map: 47 layers across 6 tiers, from the metal to the market. Every declaration and every market-share number is measured against it.

One company, one account

Most companies sit on more than one side.

Plenty of companies here run hosting brands, ship infrastructure other hosts buy, and hold stakes in both. One claim covers all of it: your host brands, your products, and the ownership record that connects them, managed from a single account.

Ownership itself stays editorial — private equity, venture, angels, holding companies, founder vehicles — sourced from public records to the best of our ability, and never editable by the companies it describes.

Host prospecting, built on the record.

Your pipeline is already sitting in the index. Every published host that has not declared you, in every layer you compete in, with the competitor they run instead. No list buying, no scraping, no guessing which accounts are in play.

Opportunities

Hosts not running you yet, ranked so the ones with nothing declared in your layer come first.

Customers

Every host already declaring your products, in one view, so you know which accounts to deepen.

Competitors

Who you are up against per layer, and where they are winning declarations you are not.

Work them through a pipeline per layer: Lead, Contacted, Negotiation. Won is the one stage you cannot set by hand — it fills the moment the host publicly declares your product, which is the only thing that moves market share.

Get on the record.

Work email, instant verification, no fees, no favors. The index reflects what hosts actually run.

For hosts

Put your stack on the record.

  • Every layer is public, private, or hidden. Your call on what goes on the record.
  • Claim in minutes with a work email. Groups and brands included.
  • A public profile proves you run a serious modern stack, and customers read it as evidence of the engineering behind their site.
  • Benchmark against the industry on every layer, including the ones you keep private.
  • Private declarations still shape market share, aggregated and never attributed to you.

Your stack, your call on what shows. Private declarations are aggregated only, never attributed.
