We built AI Dust because finding a trustworthy AI tool shouldn’t mean wading through fifty affiliate blogs and pay-to-rank directories.
The AI tools market moves faster than anyone can track by hand — new launches every week, half of them abandoned within a year. We started AI Dust to be the place you check first: every listing is reviewed by a real person, categorized properly, and kept current instead of frozen the day it was submitted.
We’re not a pay-to-rank directory. Featured placements are labeled as exactly that, and the rest of the ranking is driven by real usage and community upvotes — not who paid the most. If a tool goes offline or stops being useful, it comes down.
A handful of rules we don’t bend, no matter how many submissions come in.
Every submission is reviewed by a real person within 48 hours. Rank is earned through usage, not invoice size.
Dead links and abandoned tools get pulled. A directory is only useful if you can trust what’s still in it.
We list tools as working software, not marketing copy — clear pricing, real platforms, no vague feature lists.
Small team, real people — say hello on LinkedIn.
Sets the product vision and makes sure every listing earns its place in the directory.
Builds and maintains the platform end to end, from the tool-matching engine to the submission pipeline.
Whether you’re a founder with a tool to list or just have a question, we read every message.
