Is AI of the Day worth it?
Low priority. Tool pages link out with no rel attribute, so the link is dofollow, but the site looks inactive: in November 2026 its home page lists no tools for today, its news items are from 2023, and the listing pages checked date from early 2023. Submit for free only if you are already doing a long list of AI directories, and do not pay for placement on a site with this little visible activity.
Who should submit to AI of the Day?
Suits makers of AI tools who want one more free dofollow listing and can wait. It does not suit non AI products, which the site does not list, or anyone expecting traffic from a launch day, since the home page shows no current activity.
