Is aat.ee worth it?
Worth a free submission if you accept its badge, since the badge route gives a dofollow link and a launch in about 2 days. Without the badge or a paid plan, listings checked in November 2026 were nofollow. The paid tiers mostly sell placement on 12 other directories run by the same owner and articles on unrelated tech sites; judge those as a link package, not as launch exposure.
Who should submit to aat.ee?
Suits indie makers of AI, SaaS and developer tools who want a cheap launch day and a dofollow link, and are fine with a badge or a $3.99 fee. Front page traffic leans to AI generators and small tools. Not a fit for teams that avoid link networks or want a large, engaged audience.
What you need before you submit
- An account (Google, GitHub or email)
- Your product URL and listing details
- Optional: their badge on your site to skip the queue and get dofollow
- Optional: a one-time paid plan
