Ahrefs vs Revolut

Developer ecosystem comparison across GitHub activity, SDKs, documentation, community, reach and momentum.

Ahrefs (BTW we use OCaml) and Revolut (Revolut Open Source) both appear on the Smoower Developer Ecosystem Index.

Ahrefs (rank #401) holds a modest lead over Revolut (rank #693) on the overall Smoower ecosystem score (41 vs 31). The gap of 10 points reflects composite signals across code, docs, community and reach.

On code quality (the state of repositories, tests, releases and polish), Ahrefs is slightly ahead of Revolut. On education (docs, guides and learning material for developers), Ahrefs is slightly ahead of Revolut. On community (issue response, PR reviews and discussion health), Ahrefs is ahead of Revolut. On reach (how visible the ecosystem is beyond its own repos), Revolut is ahead of Ahrefs. On momentum (release cadence and how fast the ecosystem moves), Ahrefs is clearly ahead of Revolut.

Ahrefs carries 1,303 GitHub stars across 171 public repos, with 28 repositories active in the last 90 days and 7 external contributors on record. Revolut shows 260 stars across 35 public repos, 5 active in the last 90 days and 1 external contributors. The star gap on its own does not decide the comparison, but Ahrefs's footprint is roughly 5.0x larger, which usually shows up in downstream signals like inbound issues and third party integrations.

Ahrefs is the stronger read for anyone weighting momentum. Revolut looks better where reach is the deciding factor. The table below breaks the scores down pillar by pillar; the linked profiles cover the underlying repos, docs and community signals in full.
