Docs/AI discovery/Structured data

Structured data

The schema.org JSON-LD that product, founder and directory pages emit for search engines and answer engines.

Every public page on Founder.best embeds schema.org JSON-LD so search engines, answer engines and crawlers can understand it without scraping. The same builders that produce this markup also feed the API, so the structured data always agrees with the JSON.

Product pages

SoftwareApplication, with only properties that come from data the founder actually submitted:

PropertyValue
nameProduct name
alternateNameTagline
descriptionDescription (or tagline)
urlThe product website
mainEntityOfPageThe Founder.best product page
applicationCategory / applicationSubCategoryPrimary category / remaining categories
operatingSystemDerived from platforms (Web; iOS, Android; Windows, macOS, Linux…)
featureListUse cases
audienceOne Audience per target audience (audienceType)
keywordsCategories and use cases

datePublished / dateModifiedLaunch date / last edit
author / creatorPerson: founder name, profile URL, username
publisher / isPartOfThe Founder.best Organization / WebSite
sameAsGitHub, X, App Store, Google Play links when present
installUrl / softwareHelpApp store links / API docs URL
offersOffer with availability; price "0" only for free / freemium / open-source products
aggregateRating / reviewOnly when real reviews with ratings exist
interactionStatisticUpvote count as a LikeAction counter

Nothing is fabricated for SEO.

Founder.best does not store prices, so paid products expose availability only. Ratings appear only when users have left rated reviews. Empty fields are omitted rather than filled with placeholders.

Founder pages

Person with name, alternateName (@username), identifier, url, mainEntityOfPage (ProfilePage), image, jobTitle (headline), description (bio), sameAs (public social links), knowsAbout (categories of their products), memberOf (Founder.best), owns (their products as SoftwareApplication) and a follower interactionStatistic. An ItemList of their products accompanies it.

Site-wide

  • Organization and WebSite (with a SearchAction) on every page via the root layout.
  • BreadcrumbList on every page.
  • ItemList on the products directory, category pages and the founder leaderboard.
  • WebAPI and FAQPage on this documentation.

Alternate representations

Product and founder pages declare their machine-readable twins in the document head, so a crawler that lands on HTML can switch formats without guessing URLs:

html
<link rel="alternate" type="application/json" href="https://www.founder.best/api/v1/products/bidpage" />
<link rel="alternate" type="text/markdown"     href="https://www.founder.best/products/bidpage.md" />

Validating

Paste any product URL into Google’s Rich Results Test or the Schema.org validator. Because the markup is escaped with \u003c for <, user-written descriptions can never break out of the script tag.
