ToolPilot
Conditional free route ai-directory
Researched from public pages — no submission was run · sources read 2026-09-25. Rules change — recheck the platform's own pages before submitting.
What the free route requires
- A link back to toolpilot.ai is mandatory for all free listings — you must place one of their badges or logos on your site and then fill in the badge URL or email them to confirm
- The badge requirement 'will help prioritize your submission' — i.e., free listings without it may not be processed
Requirements
- Product must be an AI-powered tool
- Free listings must carry the 'Powered by ToolPilot.ai' or 'Featured on ToolPilot' badge linking back to toolpilot.ai
- Contact/submit form fields: Name, Email, Name of AI Tool, Company/Organization Name, Website, AI Tool Description, Comment
Prepare before opening the form
- Badge asset from https://www.toolpilot.ai/pages/brand-guidelines (featured badge black/white, or logo pack)
- A footer/site location where the badge can link to toolpilot.ai or your ToolPilot listing page
- Tool name, company name, website URL, and a written tool description
- A contact email for the confirmation step
Workflow
- Add the ToolPilot badge/logo to your site footer first (required before or alongside the free submission)
- Open https://www.toolpilot.ai/pages/submit-your-ai-tool and complete the form
- Include the URL of the page where your badge is placed, or email [email protected] to confirm the badge
- Wait for the ToolPilot team to review and create the listing
Watch for
- The site is Shopify-based; the submit page shows a 'Pricing Table' heading whose contents did not render in fetched HTML — paid tiers/featured options exist but amounts are unverified
- Badge should link 'to ToolPilot.ai, or directly to your page on our site' per brand guidelines
- The badge verification is manual — you must tell them the URL or email them; forgetting this step stalls the free listing
What counts as live
A public product page at toolpilot.ai/products/<handle> appearing in collections such as 'New AI Tools' or a category listing
Not verified
- Exact paid pricing tiers — the pricing table on the submit page did not render its content
- Review timeline for free listings
- Whether a Shopify customer account (Login link) is required to complete the submit form
