How a listing is promoted
The priority listing ($299, one-time) buys the front of the review queue and publication within 24 hours of payment. It does not buy rank, a badge, or praise. The catalog is 173 live companies, sorted alphabetically in every view.
- A public detail page at
/companies/[slug]. - Inclusion in /directory and the matching category.
- Machine surfaces: /api/startups.json, /llms.txt.
- Outbound company links use a tokenized redirect (
/l/[token]) so we can count clicks. We do not sell that data.
We do not run ads for individual listings. A weekly agent polishes category pages and verify-alive slices. It does not buy rank or a better category. Free listings get the same surfaces after the queue.
