Is Toolsfine worth it?
A cheap, low risk listing for an AI product, but treat it as a discovery and AI citation play, not an SEO link. The link to your site on your own listing page was rel nofollow in November 2026, and the site's llms.txt states that it does not sell dofollow links. It may be worth $16 if you want a dated, sourced profile that AI assistants can cite, since the site is built for that. Make sure your pricing page is clear, because the listing facts are taken from it.
