How it works
One flow. We do the research, the writing, the fork, and the PR. You pick which lists go live.
We read the page and work out what you built. Preview the lists that fit before you pay. Then sign in with GitHub so we can open PRs as you.
We check 7,335 verified directory profiles — topic, audience, product rules, and whether the list is still taking entries.
Each list wants its own format and section. We write the line the way that README already reads, so you look like you belong.
One click forks the list under your GitHub and opens the pull request. We space those PRs so twenty clicks do not land as a blast.
What we know
7,335 verified profiles. We rank the ones that fit, write the entry, and open the pull request when you click — up to 20 lists.
No spam, by design
Blasting the same pitch at a hundred lists gets you blocked. CherryPick only opens a PR after you click that list, written the way that list asks.
Pricing
$99 one-time for the match, the writing, and the pull requests. No renewal. No leftover homework.
one-time payment
Curated from 7,335 verified directory profiles.
FAQ
Curated collections of tools that live on GitHub — things like “awesome-cli-apps” or “free-for-dev”. Developers browse them when they are looking for something to use, and many rank for searches like “best API testing tools”. Getting added is free. The work is finding the right ones, writing each entry the way that list wants it, and opening the pull request. That is what CherryPick does.
No. You sign in with GitHub, we show you the lists that fit, and you click the ones you want. We handle the research, the writing, the fork, and the pull request. You never have to paste a line into a README.
No — and the difference is the whole product. Spam is volume without relevance. CherryPick ranks a short list, writes the entry the way that list wants it, and opens a pull request only after you click that list. We space those PRs so it does not look like a blast.
Because choosing is the product. Anyone can dump hundreds of lists on you. CherryPick finds the twenty that belong, writes the entry, and opens the PR.
It's built to avoid that. You get a small, relevant set of lists and you click each PR yourself. We space the opens. Optional project scanning uses GitHub's broad classic repo scope, which can include private repositories; select only a repository you intend us to read, and disconnect GitHub when finished.
Maintainers decide. We pick lists with a real shot, show you the entry before it goes out, and the PR lives on your GitHub either way.
Tools, apps, APIs, libraries, AI products, side projects, paid SaaS. If there’s a GitHub list for your category, we want you on it.
You can, and submitting directly is usually free. The work is finding the right lists, reading each policy, writing the entry, forking, and opening the PR. CherryPick does that end to end for $99 one-time.
