Submit your tool to GPTAcademy

GPTAcademy is a directory of AI tools and Custom GPTs from the OpenAI store, built on Softr, with alternatives pages, courses and a newsletter called Creators' AI. Submissions go through a no-login form; a $7.99 one-time option adds fast track and a feature by Creators' AI.

Go to the submit page Dofollow link Free, or $7.99 once for fast track

Is GPTAcademy worth it?

Worth a few minutes only if the product is an AI tool or a Custom GPT. The Visit AI Tool button on listing pages has no rel attribute, but every listing page checked carries a noindex robots tag, so the link adds little SEO value. Submit free with a real screenshot and a tight one-sentence description; pay the $7.99 only if the Creators' AI newsletter mention matters to you.

Who should submit to GPTAcademy?

Fits makers of AI tools and builders of Custom GPTs who want one more AI-focused listing. Not useful for non-AI software, since the form requires choosing between AI tool and Custom GPT. Not a good pick for anyone chasing indexed backlinks, because listing pages are set to noindex.

  • Your name and email
