Get listed on /showcase
therouter.ai/showcase is a curated, opt-in directory of products and agents shipping on TheRouter. We do not show token volumes, request counts, or any per-app rankings — only editorial info and the model stack each app routes through.
What we display
- App name, logo, tagline, and website link you submit
- The category you choose (coding, productivity, creative, other)
- The standard-model aliases your app routes through (optional)
- For spotlight features: a pull quote and longer blurb the editorial team writes (we never modify your tagline or description)
What we never display
- Token usage, request count, or any per-app numeric metric
- Your account internal id, API keys, or billing info
- Rankings, leaderboards, growth percentages, or activity charts
How it works
- Sign in to your dashboard and go to /showcase.
- Fill out the submission form. Logo and website URLs must be HTTPS. Slug is permanent — pick something stable.
- Submit for review. Listings enter a
pendingstate. Our team reviews within 2 business days. - Once approved, your listing appears at /showcase within 5 minutes (ISR revalidation window).
Tenant control
You stay in control of your listing at all times:
- Edit name, tagline, logo, website, category, and routed-models at any time. Edits to an approved listing are visible immediately on next revalidation.
- Withdraw sends the listing back to draft (admin queue cleared); you can resubmit later.
- Hide removes an approved listing from the public page without deleting it. Unhide brings it back.
Spotlight selection
Spotlights are admin-curated — we pick a small number of approved listings to feature with extended editorial copy. We won't add a pull quote or long-form write-up to your listing without confirming with you first. You will never be spotlighted against your wishes; ask us to remove the spotlight at any time.
Rejection and feedback
If your submission is rejected, the dashboard will show the reason. Common reasons: non-HTTPS URLs, low-quality logo, app does not yet integrate with TheRouter, content that conflicts with our acceptable-use policy. After fixing the issue, just edit and resubmit.
Privacy contract
The public read endpoint /v1/public/showcase serves only an explicit 13-key allowlist (slug, name, tagline, description_md, logo_url, website_url, category, routed_models, routed_providers, is_spotlight, spotlight_pull_quote, spotlight_long_form_md, published_at). New columns added to the underlying table are invisible to the public until explicitly added to the allowlist and verified by a regression test. This is enforced at the database, serializer, and endpoint layers.
