listai.tools

listai.tools is a directory of AI tools. Tools are grouped by what they make rather than the industry they sell to, so the six sections are writing, image, video, audio, code and agents. Under each section there are categories like background removal, code review or voice cloning, and a tool can appear in more than one.
Every listing shows the same things: the pricing model (free, freemium or paid), the access model (open source, closed source or API only), the categories it belongs to, and its upvote count.
You can filter on any of them. If you want a free open source transcription tool, that is three clicks rather than a morning of tabs.
Listings are ordered by upvotes. Paid listings show up in a separate featured row above the results and are not mixed into the ranking.
There is also an MCP endpoint, so AI assistants can search the catalogue, compare two tools or ask for alternatives to something without an API key or a login. Reads are open.
Everything is reviewed by hand before it is published. The directory currently holds 158 tools across 82 categories.
Submitting a tool is free. Paid tiers are a one-off charge and buy speed and visibility, not a better position in the rankings, which come from votes only.
