OpenConsultant · Draft specification 0.1.0
Connect your company
Make your consultants discoverable while keeping all information on your own website.
Publish your feed
Create an
openconsultant.jsonfile on your website. It lists your consultant profiles, each as a small file of its own. Follow our example or use the specification.Test your website
Enter your domain. We check that your feed is available and follows the standard.
Join the directory
Once your feed passes, the test offers to add your website to the public directory. Your consultant data stays on your own domain: the directory only stores the domain name and how many consultants it lists.
Joining is optional. It makes your company easier to find, but you can follow OpenConsultant without being listed.
Show you are connected
Add the optional OpenConsultant badge to your website. It tells visitors that you publish in an open format, and it links to a live check of your feed.
Put the file on your own website and link it like this, with your own domain at the end of the address:
<a href="https://openconsultant.io/test/?domain=example.com"> <img src="/openconsultant-badge.svg" alt="Publishes consultants with OpenConsultant" width="176" height="32"> </a>
