What does your distribution budget buy?

You pay only while your link stays live in real repos. Set a budget and see how many repo placements — and how much developer reach — it covers across three strategies.

$

$1,000 over 3 months = $333/month to allocate · roughly 416 repo placements depending on tier.

Reach

self-serve

Spread across many small + mid repos. Maximum breadth of corpus presence.

~ rate / repo$20/mo
typical repo150
reach / $1k·mo7.5k

Deep self-serve inventory — these devs onboard themselves via the estimator.

Balanced

self-serve

Active mid-tier repos LLMs actually read. The sweet spot of cost vs. authority.

reach / $1k·mo29.3k

Healthy self-serve supply from active indie maintainers.

Flagship

limited

A few high-authority repos. Best reach per dollar — but the hardest to onboard.

Limited inventory — flagship maintainers need concierge/BD, not a README ad.
