What is simple-repo?

01 — The idea

Part founder interview.
Part open directory.
Entirely built for discovery.

Most project directories reduce good work to a logo and a link. simple-repo asks better questions—then turns the answers into a useful, journalist-style story people can read, share, and act on.

Inside the interview

Mina Park / Open Bench

“What happened that made you create it?”

The project started after we saw the same problem appear repeatedly in conversations with people doing the work.
Read the full interview

Every founder answers questions that make the page worth reading.

  1. 01What is the project?
  2. 02Why did you create it?
  3. 03Who needs it most?
  4. 04How did you find your first customer?
  5. 05What challenge are you solving now?

Why publish here

More than another listing.

01

A page worth sharing

Guided questions turn your product facts, origin, customers, and lessons into credible long-form content under a permanent public URL.

02

Distribution that keeps working

Your approved project and profile are public, indexable, and connected to your own site—creating another durable path for people to discover your work.

03

Better leads, with context

Visitors can search what founders offer, what they need, and who they serve before reaching out. Conversations begin with a reason.

04

A reason to help

Every listing says both “what I need” and “what I can offer,” so discovery can create partnerships instead of one-way promotion.

↳

Good work travels further
when people know the story.
