AI Journey

aijourney.so ↗

Paid only ai-directory

Researched from public pages — no submission was run · sources read 2026-09-26. Rules change — recheck the platform's own pages before submitting.

Requirements

  • Tool must be AI-powered (automation, ML, NLP, computer vision, or other AI tasks)
  • No free tier shown — cheapest listing is Basic at $29 one-time
  • Tools reviewed for innovation, functionality, relevance, and user experience

Prepare before opening the form

  • Tool name, concise description, key features, use case
  • Link to the tool (repository or demo mentioned as acceptable supporting material)
  • Optional self-written long-form content and FAQ section (included if provided)
  • Payment: $29 Basic (published within 7 business days) or $99 Advanced (2 business days, homepage placement 90 days, 9 do-follow links, newsletter feature, guest post to AI Academy)

Workflow

  1. Open https://aijourney.so/submit-ai-tool and click Get Started / Book Now to reach the form (#form anchor)
  2. Choose Basic or Advanced plan and pay
  3. Submit tool details; team reviews for relevance/functionality/innovation
  4. Listing goes live within 2-7 business days depending on tier; notification via email

Watch for

  • Paid-only destination — no zero-cost route on the submit page
  • Marketing copy claims '6 high-quality dofollow links' and '48 hours' while the FAQ says review takes 3-7 business days and plan cards say 2-7 business days — timelines are inconsistent
  • Dollar 'values' next to included items ($50 verified check, $130 long review) are inflated value anchors, not real costs
  • Separate 'Submit Guest Article' and Passionfroot sponsorship routes exist but are also promotional
  • Site lists some NSFW-adjacent tools (e.g. clothoff.net review) despite no stated content policy

What counts as live

The tool has a public /tool/<slug> page on aijourney.so, indexed on Google, and appears in category listings

Not verified

  • Whether the $29 Basic tier ever gets rejected/refunded
  • Exact form fields (form anchored at /submit-ai-tool#form did not render fields in fetched text)
  • Whether listings links are dofollow as advertised
