Dang.ai
dang.aiA long-running AI tools directory with thousands of listings sorted into categories and an upvote count. The free tier requires a crawlable backlink to dang.ai on your site, allows one category and can take up to four weeks to review; the listing stays up only while your backlink does. Paying $49 removes the backlink requirement and cuts review to four days, but the outbound link on your listing is a redirect through their shortener, so do not count on it for SEO.
