It is a gold rush.
Everyone is selling shovels.
Building products used to be hard. Now it is free, and the world produces more tools in a day than anyone could try in a year. The scarce thing is no longer making something. It is knowing which things are worth using.
shovelstack is where that gets decided. A deck of products, one glance each, one question: would you put this in your stack? Swipe right to stack it. Swipe left to skip. Then see how the crowd called it.
Blind verdicts
You never see the score before you vote. No herd to follow, no count to anchor on. Your verdict is yours.
Stacks are signed
Connect with X and your stacks carry your face. A product page fills with the real people using it, and why.
Skips are secret
Negative verdicts are never attributed to anyone, ever. Honesty needs privacy, and the scores only mean something because saying no is free.
No participation trophies
Half of all verdicts are skips. That is the point. A high stack rate here is earned against a crowd that was free to say no.
Built something? Put it in the deck. One name, one link, one sentence. If the crowd stacks it, the page becomes your proof: stacks, a wall of faces, and signed notes from the people actually using it.
