Editorial principles

AIstackfor.me exists because the rest of the AI tools internet is broken. Most directories optimise for SEO traffic and affiliate revenue, not for the people trying to make real decisions. We are deliberately none of those things.

No affiliate links. Ever.

We will never accept commissions for ranking, recommending, or linking to a tool. The footer of every page shows the lifetime count: 0. Outbound links are clean URLs straight to vendor websites.

Reviews are gated by usage.

You can only review a tool if it's in your stack with status currently using or previously used. We don't accept anonymous reviews and we don't allow review-trading or coordinated campaigns.

Curation, not scraping.

Every tool is added by hand. Submissions are reviewed by humans, typically within 48 hours. Promotional copy is rewritten or rejected. Pricing, capabilities, and team-size fit are checked against the live product, not the marketing site.

Sponsorship, when it exists, is labelled.

We may eventually offer sponsored placement. If we do, sponsored slots will be visually distinct, clearly labelled, in their own section, and they will never influence organic rankings or Stack Graph data.

Privacy first.

We don't sell user data. Analytics is opt-in via cookie consent. You can export everything we have on you and permanently delete your account from your dashboard at any time.
