- Website: https://madgenius.co

## Is Mad Genius worth it?

Hard to recommend at $69.99. The link is followed, but the site looks unmaintained: about 100 tools on the homepage, many from 2022 and 2023 (Codeium is still listed under that name), a sitemap last updated in July 2023, and terms that say there are no refunds. Spend the money on a directory with recent listings unless you can confirm new tools are still being added.

## Who should submit to Mad Genius?

Could suit makers of consumer AI tools who want one more followed link and have budget to spare. Not for anyone on a tight budget, non AI products, or makers who need traffic, since there are no signs of recent activity or a visible audience.

## What you need before you submit
