Submit your tool to BestofAI

BestofAI is a large AI tools directory organized into 102 categories, with tool pages, likes, ratings and a news section. Signed-in users add a tool through a short form, and listings wait for approval before they appear.

Is BestofAI worth it?

A reasonable stop for any product with a real AI angle. The public pages show no fee for a basic submission, the form is short, and the product link on tool pages is followed. Do not expect a launch effect: the site says it holds over 15,000 tools, so a new listing is one of many. Pick categories carefully, write a clear description, and treat the $250 a month sponsorship as optional advertising rather than part of the listing.

Who should submit to BestofAI?

Suits makers of AI products of any kind, from writing and video tools to developer and sales tools. Visitors come to browse AI tools by use case. Not a fit for software with no AI component, since every category on the site is an AI category, and not a place to get launch day attention.

What you need before you submit

  • An account on the site (sign-in required to open the form)
  • Tool URL, title and description
  • Comma-separated tags
  • One or more categories

  1. Sign in on bestofai.com
