Open issues are the issues and pull requests GitHub reports as open; watchers are the accounts subscribed to the repository. OSI-approved license — GitHub’s own license field, not legal advice. 110 startups in the directory ship primarily in Python.

How it got here
What the classifier decided, and when.
Read by Jev, TypeSafe’s classifier, on Sep 22, 2026, which did not call this an open-source startup — it chose something else instead, and put os_startup at 39% (self-hostable 58%, hosted offering 22%). The classifier reads only the repository’s name, description and homepage; it can be wrong, and a probability under 0.5 puts a listing in the review queue rather than out of the directory. This one is in that queue, waiting for a person — removing a listing is a pull request a human opens.
Listed since the 2025-09 crawl. Answered by jev-1.13.0. How the classification works →

Updates daily, from the last push GitHub saw.
Honest caveat: GitHub proxies README images through Camo and rewrites the anchor with rel=“nofollow”, so a README embed sends you referral traffic and brand, not link equity. The link is dofollow wherever you control the markup — your docs, your landing page, your blog. The snippet uses your frozen OSSEAN slug, so it survives a repo rename.
