FutureStack uses a simple verification system to signal that a listing is managed by the actual maker.
Verified maker badge
A verified maker badge appears on a tool page when the listing has been claimed and confirmed by the person or team behind the tool.
It tells users that:
- The description and pricing are accurate and maintained by the maker
- Reviews can receive official responses from the maker
- The listing will be updated as the tool evolves
How to get verified
Verification happens automatically when you successfully claim your listing. See Claim Your Tool for the full process.
If you submitted the tool yourself and were logged in when you did, your listing is already linked to your account. Email team.futurestack@gmail.com to request the verified badge to be applied.
Stack of the Day badge
Tools that are selected as Stack of the Day receive an embeddable badge they can display on their own website. This badge links back to the tool’s FutureStack listing and is a permanent record of the feature.
The badge is sent to the maker via email on the day the tool is featured.
Future badges
Additional trust badges (top-rated, editor’s pick, community favorite) are on the post-launch roadmap. Last modified on May 29, 2026
