About benchmark.directory

An AI tools directory with its incentives the right way round. Listings are free for makers and impossible to buy: no sponsored slots, no affiliate ordering, no paid tier of any kind. We currently list 146 tools across 20 categories, each one paid for and used on real work before it was written up. Every entry covers the cheapest usable plan, the actual free-tier limit, the integrations we connected and tested, whether your work trains the model by default, and where the tool stops being useful.
