Have your assets ready
Name, tagline, description, logo and screenshots. The checklist below covers what to prepare so you can fill the form in one go.
Fill in the form carefully
Pick the most specific category the form offers and write the description for the people who browse ToolDirectory.AI (Buyers who want vetted, up-to-date AI tool listings), not for search engines.
Wait for review
A person reviews submissions, so it can take a while. Once it’s live, check the link on your listing points to the right page.
Tips for ToolDirectory.AI
- Paid plans promise a do-follow link, but the listing we checked used a sponsored redirect, so inspect your page after purchase.
- The $150 lifetime listing avoids the $9.99 monthly subscription if you plan to stay listed.
- There's a 7-day refund window, and you have to sign in to buy any plan.
From ToolDirectory.AI’s own guidelines and pages, in our words.
What to prepare
The basics every directory asks for, plus what matters most for AI tool directories.
- Product name and a one-line tagline (about 60 characters)
- A short description (1–2 sentences) and a longer one (a short paragraph)
- Square logo, at least 256×256 px, PNG or SVG
- 2–3 screenshots at a consistent size
- The exact page you want the link to point to
- Pricing model (free, freemium or paid) and a contact email
- The main task your AI does, in one plain sentence (e.g. “turns podcasts into short clips”)
- Your pricing tiers, and whether there is a free plan or free trial
- Which models or providers you use, if you say so publicly
- 2–3 concrete use cases, each one sentence
Is ToolDirectory.AI worth it?
Good for discovery, not link equity
Links from ToolDirectory.AI listings carry rel="sponsored", so they pass little or no ranking value. Submit if its audience matches yours: the value is visitors and being findable where people browse.
- Domain Rating by Ahrefs: 49 (moderate). That's the strength of links to the whole site, not a promise about what your listing passes on.
- Tranco rank #1,166,724: a small site, outside the top 1 million.
- A person reviews submissions, so expect a wait and a real quality bar.
- Listing costs money. Pay for the audience, not the link: Google’s spam policies treat buying links that pass ranking value as a link scheme.
This verdict is worked out from the facts above with fixed rules (link type, review, price, Domain Rating by Ahrefs, Tranco rank), not paid for. The directory has no say in it.
