Launch your service

A practical checklist for developers taking a service from registration to a live public profile with paid plans.

Account prerequisites

  1. Complete your developer profile — choose Individual or Company under Developer profile.
  2. Finish Stripe payout setup — required before subscribers can pay you. Use the Stripe setup banner on My Services or the dashboard Action queue.

Service workspace checklist

After registering a service you land in the Service Workspace. Use the launch guide chip and floating panel to track required steps.

  1. Settings — confirm endpoints and integration (OpenAPI import, branded domain, service secret). See Services and endpoints.
  2. Products & Plans — create at least one product with a billing model and add plan card feature lines so subscribers can compare what each plan includes. See Billing and usage.
  3. Edit Profile — add hero copy, features, FAQ, and branding.
  4. Preview — review the saved draft.
  5. Publish — make the public service page live.
  6. Overview — turn Active on so the service accepts usage.

Recommended: Validate invocations (Validate tab), polish the marketplace card (Marketplace tab), add plan card marketing, and list on marketplace browse when ready.

Publish vs Listed vs Active

ControlWhat it does
Profile publishedPublic service page link is live for visitors.
ListedService can appear in marketplace browse and search.
ActiveService accepts new invocations according to your setup.

You can publish a profile without listing on the marketplace, or list only after your card and plans are ready.

Minimum viable vs full marketplace

  • Minimum viable (direct link): Stripe ready → product → profile content → publish → active.
  • Full marketplace presence: above plus marketplace card images/features, plan marketing, and Listed turned on.
