Submit your tool to What Is Ai Tools

What Is Ai Tools is a directory of AI tools with review pages, categories and comparisons. You fill a form with your URL, category and description, then pick a free tier that needs a text backlink or a one-time paid tier.

Go to the submit page Dofollow link Free with a backlink, or $9.90 or $19.90 once

Is What Is Ai Tools worth it?

Reasonable for AI tool makers. The tool page at /p/your-tool links out with a followed link, which the pricing FAQ also states, while homepage and grid links are nofollow. The free tier needs a plain text link to their homepage and a 3-day review; $9.90 drops the backlink and reviews within 24 hours. Many listings are clones of big AI brands, so do not expect much buyer traffic.

Who should submit to What Is Ai Tools?

Suits makers of AI products in video, image, writing, chat, coding and productivity. Not a fit for software without an AI angle, since the category tree is all AI. Makers who will not add a footer link should take the $9.90 tier.
