Listing guidelines

What makes a strong listing#

• A tagline that says exactly what the app does — avoid vague marketing language.
• A cover image that shows the app's actual interface or output, not a generic graphic.
• A link that goes directly to the running app or the download — not a landing page in between.
• A description that sets accurate expectations, including known limitations.

Write for someone deciding in ten seconds#

Users compare several similar apps in one sitting. Lead with the concrete job your app does, not with what it is built on. "Turns a meeting recording into a decision list" beats "AI-powered productivity assistant".

Cover, in this order:

1. The specific problem it solves.
2. What the user gives it and what they get back.
3. Limits — file sizes, languages, formats it can't handle.
4. Roughly what a typical run costs.

Things that get a listing rejected#

• The link is broken, requires a separate account, or leads somewhere unrelated.
• The description promises capabilities the app does not have.
• Screenshots are mockups rather than the real interface.
• The app collects credentials or payment outside PortModels.
• The listing impersonates another developer or product.

Naming#

Your app name is namespaced under your publisher handle, so you don't need to add your own prefix. Pick a name that describes the app rather than one that apes an existing product.
