Top 172 AI directories to list your AI tool in 2026

What is in this list

Directories that list AI tools specifically, ranked by Domain Rating.

The AI directory space grew faster than any other category on this list and most of it is thin: a WordPress theme, an affiliate table, no audience. We track 203 of them and only the ones with a DR reading are shown here.

Two of them — There's An AI For That and Futurepedia — carry most of the real traffic in the category. The rest are worth a slot because they are free and fast, not because any single one moves a number.

What this page leaves out

General software catalogues, and the paid-only "featured" slots we will not buy without asking.

How this list is built

Merged from eight public datasets plus entries we added by hand, de-duplicated on registrable domain, then loaded one by one: we open each submission page ourselves rather than trusting a source list.

• Measured DR required; the unrated majority sits on the hub.
• Paid-only 'featured' placements are marked in the price column — we never buy one without asking first.
• Directories that only accept tools with a public API are flagged in the eligibility note where we have one.

Using the filters

Search by name or domain, narrow by category, tier and access, and re-sort by Domain Rating, name or when a destination was added. Columns: Domain Rating, link type, price.

How often it is refreshed

Every submission URL is re-probed daily — last check 2026-09-22. Dead pages drop off, recoveries go back on, and Domain Rating is re-read quarterly. The full record is on what changed.

Who this is for

AI products — and anyone deciding whether this category is worth the afternoon.
