Submit an AI tool or request sponsored placement

Free submissions are reviewed in batches with no promised publication date. Approved $99 profiles go live within 5 business days after payment and complete materials. Payment does not affect editorial acceptance or ranking. Articles and guides remain separately quoted. Free submissions are never charged.

Submit a tool or request a sponsored quote

No account is needed. Choose free consideration, a $99 profile quote, or a sponsored article or guide quote. Payment follows an agreed written scope and invoice. Every listing is reviewed before publication. See the prices and delivery terms.

Free consideration stays free. The $99 profile, articles, guides and custom scopes receive an email quote before an invoice. This form does not create a charge.

Required for paid requests. Free editorial consideration does not need a package.

Confirm or change the guide you want to discuss. This is not a reservation or a package selection. For another guide, mention its title in your introduction.

Submitting is not the same as being listed or booked: nothing is added to the directory automatically. Free review has no promised inclusion or date. Paid requests receive fit review and a written quote before invoicing. Corrections and follow-up questions can still use email. See the privacy note.

Choose the scope you need

Free inclusion creates a factual tool profile only. It never includes placement in any ranking, roundup or guide. Article and guide sponsorships remain separately quoted. The $99 enhanced profile adds best-fit uses, one supplied image and one factual-correction round.

Free editorial consideration

Suggest a relevant tool with the form on this page, or send a factual correction by email. No fee is required. Inclusion and review timing depend on editorial fit and available capacity.

Sponsored tool profile

$99 one-time for the enhanced product-page package, delivered within 5 business days after payment and complete materials. No existing roundup placement is included.

Article or page placement

Best for companies requesting sponsored articles, existing-page insertions, or contextual mentions on high-intent AI tool pages.

Know what you are buying

Free submissions are reviewed in batches with no promised publication date. Approved $99 profiles go live within 5 business days after payment and complete materials. Payment does not affect editorial acceptance or ranking. Articles and guides remain separately quoted. Free submissions are never charged.

The $99 profile uses the terms shown above and a written quote before invoicing. For articles and guides, our email quote specifies the deliverable, price, due date, required materials, and cancellation or refund terms. The clock starts only after payment and complete materials. A free submission stays free unless you explicitly choose a paid service.

Paid listings that we decline receive a full refund. Quoted requests declined before invoicing have no charge. Free consideration is never invoiced.

See starting prices and the delivery checklist. Published sponsors are identified; paid links use rel="sponsored". Badges are entirely optional. Adding, removing or declining a badge does not affect acceptance, publication speed, ranking or link attributes.

Editorial quality bar

We prioritize tools that help readers make a useful shortlist. A submission is easier to approve when the homepage clearly explains what the product does, the category is specific, the pricing or access model is not misleading, and the screenshot evidence shows a real product workflow rather than only a marketing banner.

We may decline, quote, or delay placement requests for broken URLs, unclear positioning, thin landing pages, unverifiable claims, missing pricing, aggressive promotional copy, or products that do not match an existing AI Tool Finder category. If your tool is early-stage, explain what is live today and what is still planned.

No account system is currently required. Free submissions and paid listings use this form and are reviewed manually. Article and guide enquiries are handled by email. The site stays lightweight while traffic and paid demand are still developing.

Optional badge for published profiles

Badges are entirely optional. Adding, removing or declining a badge does not affect acceptance, publication speed, ranking or link attributes.

Use this badge only after your profile is published. Replace YOUR-PROFILE-SLUG with the exact profile URL we send you. It indicates a directory listing, not an award or endorsement.

No badge verification, tracking script or mandatory backlink is required.

Frequently asked questions

What is the lowest-priced published package?

The enhanced sponsored tool profile is $99 one-time, quoted and invoiced after editorial fit review. Free submissions are reviewed in batches with no promised publication date. Approved $99 profiles go live within 5 business days after payment and complete materials. Payment does not affect editorial acceptance or ranking.

How long does a placement stay live?

Guide sponsorships run for 12 months from publication and do not renew automatically. Tool profiles and articles remain for at least 12 months, with no automatic removal or hosting fee afterwards. Permanence is not promised.

Does payment buy rankings or dofollow links?

No. Paid content is visibly labelled sponsored and paid external links use rel="sponsored". We do not guarantee editorial position, Google indexing, rankings, traffic, leads, sales or AI citations.

What must be agreed before payment?

The $99 profile is quoted and invoiced after fit and scope are confirmed. No self-service checkout is offered. Articles, guide sponsorships and custom work require a written scope and invoice. An enquiry is not a booking.

What happens if I cancel?

The $99 profile receives a full refund on cancellation before publication. For quoted work, before editing starts, cancellation receives a full refund. After work starts, only previously agreed charges for completed work are deducted and the undelivered balance is refunded. No retrospective cancellation charges apply.

Can I request a smaller scope?

Yes. A smaller deliverable can be quoted separately in writing. It does not include the full standard package. Existing accepted orders retain their agreed scope and price.
