Is Best-AI.org worth it?
Worth submitting if your product clearly uses AI. The listing is free and the link to your site was followed on every page checked. The catch is time: the free review has no fixed date and the partner page says it can take many weeks or months. Adding their badge with a link to best-ai.org gets a free 48 hour priority review, and Fast-Track costs $39 once. Make AI visible on your homepage, since listings without recognisable AI are rejected.
Who should submit to Best-AI.org?
Suits makers of AI products that are live and publicly usable, including tools built on someone else's model if they add their own workflow, interface or data. It does not suit non-AI software, waitlists or coming soon pages, or directories and other lists of tools, which the guidelines say are not listed. MCP servers are accepted but reviewed separately and may take longer.
