How to submit to AI X Collection, and alternatives

What AI X Collection does for a launch

AI directories are where people go when they want a tool for a job and expect AI to do it. They're strict about fit: if AI is a side feature of your product, skip them. If it's the core, they're among the best-trafficked directories you can be in.

How to get listed on AI X Collection

1. Make sure AI does the main job in your product; AI directories turn away products where it's a side feature.
2. Find AI X Collection's submit page and check what it asks for and whether there's a fee or a queue.
3. Lead with the task, not the technology: "turns meeting recordings into notes" beats "AI-powered productivity platform".
4. Pick the category people would browse for that task, and state pricing honestly, including whether there's a free tier.
5. Add a short demo video or a GIF if AI X Collection allows it. AI tools are judged on output, so show some.
6. Update the listing when you add features or change pricing; these directories are often used to compare tools side by side.

Tips for AI X Collection

• Explain the advanced use case clearly; this directory isn't aimed at general-purpose chatbots.

What to prepare before you submit

You'll paste the same things into every launch platform and directory, so write them once:

• A tagline under 60 characters that says what it does (see how to write a product tagline).
• A description under 160 characters, plus a longer one of two or three short paragraphs.
• A square logo (at least 256×256) and three or four screenshots at the same size.
• Your pricing in one line, including whether there's a free plan.
• A spreadsheet of where you submitted, the listing URL and whether the link is followed.

Frequently asked questions

Is submitting to AI X Collection free?

Some AI directories list tools for free, many charge a submission fee, and most sell featured placement. AI X Collection's current terms are on its submit page.

Will AI X Collection accept my product?

If AI does the main job in it and it works for someone who signs up today, it has a good chance. Products that are mostly a wrapper with no clear use case, or that are still a waitlist, are often declined.

Is AI X Collection worth it for an AI product?

Usually yes, if you're an AI-first product: people browse these directories with a task in mind and a willingness to try new tools. Measure it with a tagged link so you know what it sends.
