Hundreds of commits
You're shipping constantly.
Your work deserves to be Seen.
Trace reads your commits, your README, and the shape of your whole project, then tells you which stories are worth telling. Built for founders and solo devs who'd rather ship than write.

I built a tool that reads your GitHub commits and tells you which ones are worth posting about
Most developers build constantly and post rarely. Not because they lack stories, but because they can't see the story in their own commits. So I built Trace to read the commits and find them.
Why it works
Solves real problemSpecific & relatableTeaches a frameworkHigh debate potential
Developers ship every day.Most never realize they already have stories.
Trace reads your GitHub commits and finds the stories worth sharing — so your work gets the audience it deserves.
No audience
Great work stays invisible.
No content
Staring at a blank compose box.

The engine does not invent an angle. It weighs concrete signals first, then turns the strongest pattern into usable content.
The six story patterns
Struggle
Reverts and repeated fixes on the same problem.
High effort
Ship
A burst of commits shipping one feature.
High velocity
Decision
A refactor or migration traded one architecture for another.
High impact
Deletion
Code removed, simplified, or stripped out.
Clarity
Comeback
A hotfix or revert after something broke.
Resilience
Milestone
A version bump, launch, or first moment.
Momentum
See it in action
From commits tocontent in minutes.
Trace analyzes your work, finds the story, and writes the first draft so you can publish faster.
Example verdict
This week is worth a post.
ShipHigh confidence
- Shipped format selector, candidate cycling, and regenerate together — one coherent feature, not three loose commits.
- Pro-gated behind a single isPro prop, keeping the free path untouched.
- README and eval snapshots updated in the same window — a clean before/after.
Read the draft
1/ Shipped format selection today — pick short video, long video, X thread, LinkedIn, or a straight marketing post before generating. 2/ Added candidate cycling too. Don't like the first draft, cycle to the next without burning a new generation. 3/ Regenerate replaces the draft instead of stacking on top of it. Small decision, but it's the one that makes the tool feel like an editor instead of a slot machine. 4/ Pro-gated behind one prop. The free path never touches this code.

Questions, answered.
No. The editorial engine finds which parts of your work are worth talking about and drafts a starting point. You review, edit, or dismiss before anything goes out. If a week has nothing worth posting, Trace says so instead of inventing a story.
Standard GitHub OAuth, read-only. You choose which repos to connect.
No. Trace stores commit metadata (messages, timestamps, lines changed) and your README, not your source code or diffs.
Yeah.
Yes. The OAuth scope covers private repos, they work the same as public ones.
It runs against a fixture-based eval suite before every release, currently passing all hard checks, with grounding rules that block invented or generic content.
X and LinkedIn today, formatted per platform rather than one generic post copy-pasted twice.
Yes, the free tier is fully usable with no credit card required.
