This integration is designed to give you a deeper understanding of your project’s usage, fostering stronger connections with your community, accelerating growth, and uncovering valuable purchase signals.
Avi Press, CEO of Scarf, explains: “Building thriving open source projects hinges on a strong connection with your users. This integration bridges the gap between open source data and other customer signals, allowing companies to identify potential buyers within your open source user base.”
Scarf already offers insights into your project usage, adoption trends, and developer engagement. Now, with Common Room in the mix, those insights are added to other signals like social media, product, community, and more. This translates to several key benefits:
- Target more users: Add more open source data to Common Room.
- Stronger signals: Users of your open source project are already using your application.
- Create a richer funnel: Track the effectiveness of your community initiatives and see how they influence project adoption.
Bowen Pan, VP of Product at Common Room, highlights the value for their users: “Open source usage is an important buying signal, and we’re excited to be able to offer it to our users. The Scarf integration gives our users the ability to add even more open source insights to what they already have in Common Room to go-to-market intelligently.”
This integration is a powerful tool to strengthen your community, accelerate growth, and uncover hidden purchase signals. With Scarf and Common Room working together, open source usage insights are combined with other types of customer intelligence data to track the entire user journey.

Turn Your Open Source Adoption into Revenue with Scarf + Salesforce & Hubspot
Open source has been a taboo group–do not market to, do not sell to, do not track. Companies offering open source are pouring resources into the project, but it remains a black hole for go-to-market teams—high adoption, but no clear path to conversion. KPIs for open source teams are download numbers and activity, rarely is it ARR.

Scarf Basic and Premium tiers have long had the ability to sort their open source usage data by company, domain, events, last seen, and funnel stage. But our customers have been wanting more.
