Stars measure attention, not revenue, adoption or retention.
The series starts on 5 Feb 2026, when we began observing this repository. Earlier history exists only as a monthly reconstruction and is deliberately not plotted with it.

Finding companies at that stage is the product. Contributor pedigree, enterprise-demand signals and our ranking sit behind the login.
