Is AIToolex worth it?
A reasonable free listing for AI products. Listing pages checked in November 2026 link to the product with no rel attribute, so the link is followed. The catalog is modest (about 400 item pages in the sitemap) and view counts on listings are low, so expect a backlink and an indexed page rather than traffic. Add the optional badge if you want a faster review, and use the publish date setting to line it up with a launch.
Who should submit to AIToolex?
Suits makers of AI apps, chatbots, APIs, extensions and creative tools that use real AI features. Not for software without AI functionality, since the FAQ limits submissions to AI related products. Not a source of meaningful traffic on its own.
