How to submit to StackShare, step by step
To get a tool listed, you must first claim an existing tool page or have one created. Claiming is free and requires verifying ownership via email or GitHub.
Find or create your tool page
Search StackShare for your tool. If it exists, go to its page. If not, you may need to request listing through support or community channels, as there is no open add-tool form.
Click 'Claim this tool'
On your tool's page, click the 'Claim this tool' button to start the verification process.
Choose a verification method
Select either email verification (using an email at your tool's domain) or GitHub repository verification (requires admin or maintain permissions).
Complete verification
For email, click the verification link sent to your inbox. For GitHub, connect your GitHub account and grant permissions; verification is instant if you have sufficient access.
Receive verified badge
Once verified, your tool gets a verified badge, indicating the page is officially managed by your team.
What the StackShare form asks for
| Field | Limits and format |
|---|---|
| Email address at tool's domain | For email verification, must be at the tool's official domain (e.g., team@yourtool.com) |

Why StackShare submissions get rejected or stall
- Verification fails if you cannot prove ownership via email at the tool's domain or GitHub admin/maintain permissions.
- Verification can be revoked if the tool is sold or transferred without updating ownership.
- Verification can be revoked if community guidelines are violated.
- Verification can be revoked if information becomes significantly outdated or misleading.
Tips for a listing that gets approved
- Ensure your tool's website URL is correctly set on the listing before claiming.
- Use email verification if your tool has its own domain; use GitHub verification for open source tools without a custom domain.
- If you don't have access to email or GitHub, contact support with proof of your official role (team page, LinkedIn, public announcements).
- Keep your tool information current after verification to maintain the badge.
