OpenDepartment

OpenDepartment is a web application that lets you build and run a mock government archive or record-keeping system for a class, team, or group chat. Members can upload exhibits, vote on items, and discuss them in the comments, with access managed entirely via invite codes or email approvals. The platform acts as a lightweight interface that connects to your own free Supabase project, meaning all files and data remain stored in your personal database rather than on their servers.

About OpenDepartment

Is OpenDepartment legit?

OpenDepartment was listed on IndieAppCircle in September 2026 by Levi Sager, who opened it to independent testers. 1 independent tester has used it since and had their feedback accepted by the maker (2 tests submitted in total). It is distributed through its own website at opendepartment.vercel.app. IndieAppCircle is a peer feedback exchange, not a paid-review site: testers earn credits only for feedback the maker accepts, and nobody is paid to be positive. We record what happened here; we do not vouch for a product's business practices.

What platforms does OpenDepartment run on?

OpenDepartment runs on Web. The maker built it for a general audience.

Is OpenDepartment still looking for testers?

Yes. The maker pays 10 credits for each approved test. Sign in to IndieAppCircle, open the test instructions on this page, try the app and write up what worked, what confused you and what broke. Once the maker approves your feedback the credits are yours; feedback left unanswered for 48 hours is approved automatically.

How do testers review OpenDepartment on IndieAppCircle?

Testers are other indie developers. They open OpenDepartment, follow the maker's test instructions, and write up first impressions, confusing moments and bugs. The maker reads each write-up and either approves it — which pays the tester — or rejects it. Only approved feedback is counted on this page. There are no star ratings and IndieAppCircle pays nobody to review anything; it is a feedback exchange, not a review site.
