Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A public directory mapping AI applications to the models they use, based on OpenRouter traffic rankings and model pages.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-29 issue.

Field notes

The homepage groups model records by a closed UTC day and exposes both token volume and rank, rather than presenting a static catalogue. Each record pairs a provider/model name with a top observed application and an observation count, while the site reports 6,592 apps after alias collapse. The displayed sample ranges from general-purpose products such as Framer and Claude Code to narrowly named applications including schema-markup-generation and payready-document-extraction.
