Is Tools Under Radar worth it?

A small directory with mixed link value. In a November 2026 check, most listing pages, including two whose sites carry a Tools Under Radar badge, had rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" on the Visit button, while featured and some other listings had a followed link. Plan prices are not visible without an account. Sign in, read the plan cards, and only pay if the tier states a do-follow link in writing.
