Submit your tool to WhatAreYouBuilding.AI

Is WhatAreYouBuilding.AI worth it?

A good free listing for indie makers. The Visit link on product pages is followed, review is fast according to the site, and listings are permanent and editable. It launched in August 2026, so traffic is modest, but the page is a clean record that agents can read through its API. Add a logo and screenshots after signing in, pick accurate categories, and set the country, since browsing by country is one of the main entry points. The $199 per month sponsor rail is optional and only for those chasing visibility.

Who should submit to WhatAreYouBuilding.AI?

Suits solo founders and small teams shipping AI, SaaS and dev tools, and startups that want to show funding stage to investors browsing the site. Products with no real website (a bare vercel.app address) are refused, according to SubmitMap, which was not checked. Not a fit for agencies, services or anyone wanting a large launch-day spike.
