> The AI Tools Index is a browsable index of live AI tools organized by category, including tools currently for sale. Every listing links to the maker's real product, and any paid placement is always labeled "Sponsored."

Listing badges now come in two variants, with a ready-made prompt so your coding assistant installs them for you.

We redesigned the The AI Tools Index badges: a proper card with your domain in bold, light and dark variants to match your site, and — our favorite part — a "Copy prompt for AI" button that generates the exact instructions for Claude Code, Cursor, or your assistant of choice to add the badge to your footer for you.

You'll find them in the submit flow and in your dashboard. The badge link is always crawlable (no nofollow): your listing starts passing domain authority from day one.
