How we think about curation
Quality over quantity
Every listing goes through a review process. We'd rather have 500 good products than 5,000 mediocre ones.
Transparency
Pricing models are clearly labeled. No hidden freemium traps, no misleading "free" badges on paid products.
Builder-friendly
Submitting a product should be straightforward. We want to help you launch, not create busywork.
No fake reviews
Product information comes from the builders themselves. We verify it, but we don't manufacture social proof.
Category integrity
Products are organized by what they actually do. A chatbot is a chatbot, even if it calls itself an "AI operating system."
Global reach
AI is built everywhere. The directory is open to products from any country, any team size, any stage.
