Acid Tools is an AI tools directory aimed at automation-heavy work, AI writing, visual creation, and productivity workflows. It has a domain rating of 67, well above most niche AI directories, and listings are free with a dofollow link, which makes it a strong backlink target for AI products. Submit through the /submit page with a clear statement of which workflow the tool serves. The directory organizes tools by use case, so pick the closest category rather than a generic one.
Submit free at acidtools.com/submit.
Write the listing around a concrete workflow such as automation, writing, or design, since the directory sorts tools by use case and a vague description lands in the wrong shelf.
Prepare a logo, a one line summary, and the canonical homepage URL before starting.
No account is required.
After submitting, allow a few days for manual review, then verify the live listing points to the right page.
