Why open source maintainers love CommitCatalog

Free for open source

Our Free tier is perfect for open source projects. 3 projects, 100 commits/month, public changelog page — all at $0.

Keep a Changelog format

Follows the keepachangelog.com standard automatically. Added, Changed, Deprecated, Removed, Fixed, Security — all categorized by AI.

Hosted changelog page

Give your project a professional, hosted changelog page. Better than a raw CHANGELOG.md file — searchable, linkable, and beautiful.

Semantic versioning built in

AI suggests version bumps (patch/minor/major) based on conventional commits. Follow SemVer best practices without manual tracking.

Build community trust

A well-maintained changelog shows contributors and users that the project is actively developed and professionally managed.

Attract more contributors

Clear changelogs help potential contributors understand the project's direction and what has changed recently.
