Submit your tool to PoweredbyAI

PoweredbyAI is a large AI tools directory with alternatives pages, a leaderboard, a newsletter and a Slack community. You paste your URL, the form auto-fills name, description, category and logo, then you pick a paid plan.

Go to the submit page Dofollow link $11.99 once (Pro) or $69.99 once (Elite)

Is PoweredbyAI worth it?

At $11.99 once for a permanent listing with a followed link and instant publishing, it is good value among paid AI directories. Pro is enough for most AI tools. Elite at $69.99 mainly adds sponsored placement and removes competitor tools from your own page. Check the auto-filled text before submitting, since it comes from a scrape of your homepage. The separate Outrank feature is a bidding system for the top spot and is optional.
