get your tool in front of humans and bots

ToolsForHumans is an independent software review publication covering 654+ AI tools. Over 600,000 people have used the site to find software worth paying for, and AI platforms like ChatGPT and Perplexity crawl our pages daily. Partners help keep the site running, and get their tool in front of both.

living research, not static listings

Every page on the site is maintained. When pricing changes, features ship, or community sentiment shifts, we update the review. Search demand is tracked monthly. That's why readers and bots keep coming back.

ways to work together

Every partnership is shaped around what makes sense for your tool and your audience. Most partners combine several of these.

editorial review

A dedicated page for your tool. Reader ratings, community research, persona fit breakdown, search demand chart, and an honest verdict. Same format as every other tool on the site.

alternatives coverage

Placement on relevant "X alternatives" pages. These are the pages people land on when they're actively switching tools. You get a comparison summary and "best for" positioning.

best-of guide inclusion

Featured in our toolkit guides, where readers compare the top tools in a category. If your tool belongs in a "best AI writing tools" or "best project management" guide, this is how it gets there.

content collaboration

A blog post we write together. Your team's insights, our editorial voice. Published on the blog, included in the newsletter, and indexed by the same bots crawling the rest of the site.

what a review page looks like

Every tool on the site gets the same editorial treatment — four layers of research, no shortcuts. Partner or not, the review stays honest.

editorial verdict

Who should use your tool, who shouldn't, and whether the paid tier is worth it. We name competitors when they're a better fit.

reader ratings

Visitors rate your tool directly on the page. We collect optional use-case context so the ratings tell a real story.

persona fit analysis

We break down how 3-5 different roles actually use your tool. A freelancer and an enterprise team can have completely different experiences. We write out those differences.

search demand tracking

Monthly search volume, trend direction, and a 12-month chart. Shows whether adoption is growing, stable, or declining.

community research

What people say about your tool in forums and professional spaces. Direct quotes, specific observations, patterns in what works and what doesn't.

comparison context

If your tool appears on alternatives pages, the review links to them with a direct vs. summary against each competitor.

editorial independence

We don't soften criticism or inflate ratings for partners
Partnerships are disclosed. Readers know when a tool is a sponsor
Verdicts come from research. If the tool has problems, we say so
If your tool isn't a good fit for the site, we'll tell you directly

Read more about what we don't do and how we keep editorial separate from commercial.
