What is this website?
amaze.directory is a manually screened directory for discovering AI tools. Each listing is opened and used on a real task before publication, with a category and price tier shown to help readers search by job, narrow the options, and visit the maker's site. Submitters must place a verification badge in their site's raw HTML, and listings are checked continuously. It suits people who want relatively current, reviewable leads rather than the largest possible catalog or paid exposure.
Core features
- Search AI tools by the job you need to do and open the listed website directly.
- Browse categories such as writing and content, image generation, video generation, audio and voice, and research and search.
- See a free tier or other pricing information on listing cards, based on the tool's own site.
- Require a human to open and use a tool before it is listed, with submissions screened first.
- Re-check listed tools daily; dead links are removed, and missing verification badges trigger a notice and repair window.
- Order listings by recency and category, without paid placement or pay-to-rank options.
Common use cases
- Individuals looking for tools for writing, research, meeting notes, or media generation can start with a task category.
- Product managers and developers evaluating new AI services can use the human-use check and price card as an initial filter.
- Content teams looking for alternatives can return to see recently added listings.
- AI tool makers can submit a link and one-sentence description, then complete badge verification if screened in.
Who is it for?
- People who want AI tools that someone has actually opened, without checking every search result themselves.
- Individuals or small teams making an initial comparison by job type and price tier.
- Tool makers able to place a verification badge in their site's raw HTML and accept ongoing checks.
- Researchers who value accessible, recently checked listings more than directory size.
- It is a poor fit if you need deep evaluations, a standardized trial benchmark, or a broad catalog of non-AI software.
How does it compare with similar tools?
amaze.directory emphasizes human opening, submission screening, and ongoing verification. Compared with directories built mainly from scraping or self-service publishing, it puts more weight on currently reachable links, evidence that a listing was viewed, and a verifiable badge; the tradeoff is potentially narrower coverage and a badge requirement for submitters. It organizes by recency and category rather than payment, so it works as a discovery and first-pass filter, not as a replacement for trials, privacy review, or procurement evaluation.
Frequently asked questions
Q: How does a tool get listed on amaze.directory?
A: Submit the tool link and one sentence about it. After screening, add the badge to your site's raw HTML and verify it before the listing goes live.
Q: Does submitting a tool cost anything?
A: No. Submission is free, and there are no paid placements or pay-to-rank options.
Q: Why is a verification badge required?
A: It shows that the submitter wants the listing, and the checker must see it directly in the page's raw HTML.
Q: What happens if a badge or link stops working?
A: Listings are checked daily. A missing badge prompts an email and a seven-day repair window; dead links or unrepaired listings are removed.
