Hey Product Hunt! I built GitMeter because GitHub star counts are useful, but they don’t really show which open-source projects are gaining momentum right now. I wanted a way to spot breakout repos earlier instead of discovering them after they were already everywhere. GitMeter tracks repo growth with daily snapshots, automatically discovers promising projects, classifies them with AI, and ranks them across daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, and trending views. If you give it a try, I’d especially love feedback on: - whether the rankings surface genuinely interesting projects - which filters, signals, or alerts you’d want next - how useful this is for developers, founders, and OSS maintainers Happy to answer questions and would love your honest feedback.

Why I built GitMeter to discover rising GitHub projects?

I built GitMeter because static GitHub star counts never felt enough.

They show popularity, but not momentum. I wanted a way to discover open-source projects that are rising now, not only the ones that have already become obvious.

GitMeter tracks repository growth with daily snapshots and surfaces projects through daily, weekly, monthly, and hot rankings.

I d love to learn from how others discover new repos:
