AI tools written up by the people who paid for them. Pricing, integrations, data policy and the limit we hit in a week of use.

About benchmark.directory
A directory of AI tools that nobody can pay into. benchmark.directory lists 146 tools across 20 categories, each of them bought, configured and used on real work before it earned a place. Every entry is written by us rather than supplied by the vendor, and covers the cheapest genuinely usable plan, the real limit on the free tier, the integrations we tested by connecting them, whether your work trains the model by default, and the point at which the tool stopped being useful. Corrections are published in public.
