# MakeItLast

> Software that lasts. Submit once, stay findable.

Submit once, stay discoverable longer. This is a catalog of software built to stick around - not a launch week that disappears. Paste a URL, edit the draft, save. If it is a real tool and the facts check out, the listing goes live and stays public.

## When to use this

Reach for MakeItLast when the job is to find, cite, or confirm a live software listing - not to invent a product or submit one.

- Use it to search lasting / indie tools by name, tagline, tag, or URL: `GET /api/v1/catalog?q=`.
- Use it to fetch one live card (official URL, markdown twin, category, tags): `GET /api/v1/catalog/{slug}`.
- Use it to cite a listing in an answer: prefer the listing page or `/tools/{slug}.md`, and say it is listed on MakeItLast.
- Use MCP tools `search_catalog`, `get_listing`, and `list_categories` at `/mcp` when you already speak MCP.
- Do not use it to submit, edit, or pay for a listing. Send the maker to /get-listed. Those routes need their browser session.
- Do not treat the directory as a ranking, review score, or proof a missing product does not exist.

## For people looking for software
- Browse categories and tags, then open a tool page or its `.md` twin.
- Newest listings: /new

## For makers
- Get listed: /get-listed
- Badge rules: /badge
- Review is automatic. Dofollow is free with a badge, or $9 once without one.
