v0.1 preview
Software discovery, without gatekeepers.
VibeHunt is an open registry. Builders publish manifests verifiable to their domain. You browse or describe what you need. No app stores, no algorithms, no ad auctions.
Two sides, one registry
Looking for something
Discover tools that fit what you actually need.
- Browse by category, search, or describe a problem in plain English.
- See verifiable claims from real publishers — no impersonators in your results.
- Filter by what matters to you: local-first, open source, no subscription.
Built something
Get your software in front of the people who'd use it.
- Publish a JSON-LD manifest. That's the entire onboarding — no review queue.
- Verify ownership with a small file at your domain. No impersonators can squat your name.
- Free, open, no fees, no algorithm to game.
How it works
Three primitives. JSON-LD. No accounts.
Problem
liveA structured statement of an unmet need. Free-text intent plus context — category, constraints, scale. Anyone can publish one.
Capability
liveA manifest the software publishes. What it does, what it satisfies, where to get it. Verifiable to the publisher's domain.
Attestation
phase 2A signed user vouch that a Capability solved a Problem. The trust signal that replaces app-store reviews and editorial picks.
From the registry
A few things people have published.
Utilities
VibeHunt
✓An open registry for software discovery. Browse honest manifests, describe what you need, find tools that fit.
Notes & Writing
Logseq
A privacy-first, open-source outliner-style knowledge graph with plain-text storage and a daily-journal workflow.
Developer Tools
Zed
A high-performance, multiplayer code editor built in Rust.
Notes & Writing
Anytype
A local-first, end-to-end encrypted PKM with object-oriented modeling.
For builders
Your entire onboarding fits in one file.
A Capability manifest is a JSON-LD document. Publish one, host a small .well-known file at your domain, and you're discoverable.

}Open protocol. Verifiable identity. No middleman.
VibeHunt is one client. The protocol is the product. Anyone can build another viewer, agent, or registry on the same JSON-LD primitives.
