Less searching. A clearer way to use AI.
There is no shortage of AI tools. The harder part is working out what they do, what they cost, and where they might help with the work in front of you. Ai Siftly brings that information together with practical ways to plan your next step: explore tools, compare the details that matter, build a workflow, or start with a prompt you can adapt.
Start with the work you want to do
- Explore and compare tools. Look at their stated features, pricing, platforms and access limits side by side in the directory and comparison. Source links and check dates help you see where the information comes from.
- Find a workflow. Describe a goal in one sentence in the Find workflows box on the home page and see the closest workflows from the library. You stay in control of the plan.
- Build a prompt. Fill in a template, review the assembled text, and copy it into the AI tool you choose. The templates draw on official prompting guidance, with sources linked.
- Find a starting point. The requirements matcher lets you pick a kind of work, or describe it in your own words, and shows the closest categories and tools with the reason for each match.
- Work through the numbers. The calculators (coming soon) will estimate costs and the value of time saved with your own inputs. The results will be estimates, not measured product performance.
Learn from real workflows
The case studies document how named people and teams use AI to get work done, with links to the original accounts and clear attribution for every reported result.
The case studies explain the steps their sources describe. Each suggested follow-along starts with the goal, the practice level and what you need before you start, then gives one action at a time with an example to copy, the output you should get and a way to check it worked. The original account stays in its own section, separate from our suggested steps, and a process map shows the documented workflow at a glance. Suggested practice exercises offer smaller versions with example inputs, expected outputs and checks. Historical tool details and advanced setup requirements are called out before you start. Where the original account leaves a gap, suggested follow-along instructions are labelled separately - a suggested step is never presented as something the original person documented.
Sources, not guesswork
Tool information is researched from official vendor pages and documentation. A recorded price or feature is a dated read of what the vendor published, not a guarantee that it is still the same today.
Monthly-billed prices and annual-billed equivalents are kept separate. Free plans, recurring allowances, one-time credits and trials are not treated as the same offer. Country and platform limits matter too: language support alone does not prove that a service is available where you live.
When a detail has not been established, it stays marked as not listed or not checked. Not listed does not mean unavailable.
What the site can and cannot tell you
The catalogue is built from vendor sources. It does not establish a tool's accuracy, reliability or value for your particular task. A workflow fit summary describes a possible use based on published capabilities, not a performance verdict.
The workflow finder, requirements matcher, prompt builder and calculators (coming soon) run on rules and the information you provide. They do not call an AI tool, carry out the work for you, or prove that a suggested product will deliver the result you want.
Before you upload sensitive material or pay for a service, check the vendor's current terms, permissions, prices and availability. Review AI outputs before relying on them.
How we verify
Tool catalogue facts are researched from vendors’ own sources. Case-study accounts are attributed to their original publishers, which may be a person, a company or a tool vendor. Current status: the catalogue records are “catalogue grounded” - identity, features and pricing were read from the vendors’ own pages on the dates shown on each record, with the quoted wording and source links kept. That is source-grounding: no tool has been scored or ranked, and no tool on this site is recommended. Grounding is per field: a record can be grounded overall while individual fields (for example a price that would not render on the vendor’s page) stay “Not listed”.
What verification covers
- Identity. The record points at the vendor’s official site, confirmed in a real browser - not guessed from a name or a search result.
- Pricing. Prices are read from the vendor’s own official sources - usually the pricing page, or the vendor’s official documentation when the pricing page does not render - and shown with the date they were last checked. The headline “entry price” is always a monthly-billed figure as displayed; annual-billed equivalents are labelled separately and never substituted for it. A price without a check date is not shown as fact.
- Features and requirements. Feature claims come from the vendor’s own published materials, with the source kept on the record. Signup requirements are stated only when observed.
- Fit and eligibility. Checking a pricing page establishes a price on that date. It does not by itself establish that a tool fits a task, or make it eligible for recommendation.
- Matching and labels. Where the matcher lists tools for a step, they appear under the label “Matches based on official product information”, ordered alphabetically or by a transparent stated sort on recorded facts. A match means the vendor’s own materials document a relevant capability; it is not a rating, a ranking or a recommendation. Region notes are notes, not filters: nothing is hidden because a country was not checked.
- Popularity order. Where a list is ordered by popularity (for example on the home page), the order comes from the Tranco research list of website domains, with the list date shown. It is not a count of users or visits and not a quality rating.
What “tested” means here
Scores and rankings render only alongside a link to the method behind them, and the build enforces this (a score without a methodology link is not displayed).
Not-listed policy
- Anything not checked is shown as “Not listed”. Gaps are never filled by guessing, inference or defaults.
- Dates are shown as “last checked” dates. This site does not claim to be “updated daily” or make any freshness promise - no refresh system is running yet.
- Catalogue counts shown anywhere on this site are counts of records in the current catalogue at the stated grounding level, with a date. They are not totals for the market.
What “grounded” means here
“Grounded” means the information was read from the vendor’s own official pages on a recorded date, and the exact wording and source URL are kept on the record so you can check them. Grounding covers identity, stated features and listed pricing only. It does not cover performance, accuracy, reliability, fit for your task, or value for money. A grounded price is a price seen on one date, not a price guaranteed today.
Sponsor policy
There are no sponsors and no advertising on this site today.
- Any future sponsored placement will always be labelled as sponsored.
- A sponsor can never buy a ranking, a score or a review.
- Sponsorship, if it ever exists, does not change what is listed or what is said about a tool.

Terms of use
This site is an independent, informational directory of AI tools. Content is grounded in vendors’ own public pages on the dates shown per record; those are dated reads, not confirmation of current terms or availability, and they may have changed since. Always confirm on the vendor’s own pages before buying. Values we could not find are labelled “Not listed” or “not checked”; a missing value is not a claim that something does not exist. No tool is scored, ranked or recommended unless a page explicitly shows the verification method behind that label. Matching and comparison features are rules-based; no AI interprets your input.
This site has no sponsors and no affiliate links today. If that changes, sponsored placements will always be labelled, and a sponsor can never buy a ranking, score or review.
The site is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind.
We record what vendors say on their own pages, but information here can be out of date or wrong. Check the vendor’s page before you buy or rely on anything. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for any loss or damage from using this site or relying on its content, including prices, features and workflow suggestions. Nothing here limits any liability that the law does not allow us to limit.
