findly.tools

Findly.Tools positions itself as a clean and modern tool directory, built to highlight indie projects, SaaS apps, and side tools in a more curated way. The submission process works much like 1000.tools: you can either add a verification badge with a do-follow link on your site or pay a small fee to be included. That extra step keeps out spam and low-effort entries, which gives the directory a more trustworthy feel compared to platforms that accept anything instantly.

When you submit a project, you can upload your logo, add a short description, and choose the right category. A feature that makes Findly.Tools stand out is the ability to mark your tool as “for sale.” This is especially useful for makers who want not only to showcase their work but also explore potential exits or buyers. Some tools also appear with “deal” labels, showing that there’s room for highlighting discounts or special offers, which adds an extra layer of visibility.

The directory itself is broad, covering categories like AI, marketing, design, SEO, productivity, writing, no-code, and developer tools. Despite this range, the layout is simple and easy to navigate, with “New” tools featured on the homepage so recent submissions don’t get buried right away. The addition of a blog and supporting content gives the site more depth than a plain list of links, making it feel like a resource hub rather than a static directory.

From a maker’s perspective, the badge or payment requirement can feel like a hurdle, but it also means the overall quality of entries is higher. Once your project is listed, the presentation is neat, with logo and description displayed clearly. For buyers or curious users, the “For Sale” and “Deals” features add real value, showing that Findly.Tools is designed not just for visibility but also for practical outcomes.

The limitation, as with most newer directories, is scale. Traffic isn’t huge, and the audience is still building, so exposure is steady rather than explosive. That said, the visitors who do browse are there with intent, looking for tools in specific categories, which often makes the traffic more relevant.
