# CompassPad > A discovery catalog of new startup projects, tools, and side projects. Every entry shows what we checked and when. CompassPad catalogs 71 published projects across 14 categories. Every entry records what the project does, the stack it was built with, and the date CompassPad last checked it. Entries that stop resolving are retired to the graveyard rather than left online. ## Key pages - [Home](https://compasspad.com/): featured entries, categories, and the latest additions. - [Features](https://compasspad.com/features): how a CompassPad entry is checked, and what the catalog never claims. - [Wall](https://compasspad.com/wall): retired and delisted entries, kept with their dates and evidence. - [Makers](https://compasspad.com/makers): the people behind published entries. - [Pricing](https://compasspad.com/pricing): listing tiers and what each one buys. - [About](https://compasspad.com/about): what the catalog is and how entries are reviewed. - [Contact](https://compasspad.com/contact): corrections and questions. ## Published entries - [DocuShift](https://compasspad.com/startups/docushift): Track API changes automatically, surfacing what matters.
