About

There are too many AI tools. We test them so you don't have to.

launched.tools is an independent, reviewed directory of AI tools. We test-drive every one, score it out of 100 against the same rubric, and publish an honest verdict — so you can find what works without burning a week of free trials.

Why we exist

The AI boom broke tool discovery. Every week brings a hundred new products and a thousand “top 10” lists that are really affiliate rankings in disguise. Search results are gamed, demos are cherry-picked, and the only way to know if something is any good is to sign up, hand over a card, and find out the hard way.

We built launched.tools to be the opposite of that: one place where every tool is actually tested, scored on the same scale, and written up in plain language — the good and the bad. No hype, no pay-to-win, no affiliate math dressed up as a recommendation.

What we do

We test the real product

Every score comes from the working tool, not its marketing page — rated out of 100 on capability, usability, value, reliability, and support.

We publish an honest verdict

Each listing gets a plain-language read: what it's genuinely good at, where it falls short, and who it's actually for.

We stay independent

The score never moves for money. Founders can pay to be reviewed sooner or featured — never to score higher.

The desk

Small, independent, and not for sale.

launched.tools is run by a small editorial desk — not owned by, funded by, or beholden to any tool in the directory. We write the reviews, we fix mistakes fast, and we add new tools worth knowing about every week. If a score ever looks wrong to you, tell us and we'll take another look.
