About IndieTools

Is IndieTools a startup and product directory?

IndieTools is an indie tools and startup directory with permanent product pages, founder profiles and updates, and PageSpeed and Domain Rating history. It connects independent SaaS products, apps and developer tools with the people building them. Visitors can compare product details and follow public updates after launch day. Three weekly views add different kinds of evidence: Top Products tracks organic engagement, Speed records mobile PageSpeed lab measurements, and Domain Rating records Ahrefs backlink-strength scores. Each view provides dated editions and links back to the product records.

Is it free to list a product on IndieTools?

Yes. Free costs $0 for 1 lifetime product listing per owner, with manual review before publication. A website badge is optional; the website link is nofollow by default and becomes DoFollow while the badge is verified. Standard costs $10 and Authority costs $39 as one-time payments per product. Paid submissions use automated validation and do not require a website badge. Payment does not guarantee publication or organic ranking.

What can people discover on IndieTools?

People can discover indie SaaS products, AI tools, developer tools and useful apps, then explore the founders, categories, technologies, performance measurements and public updates connected to them.

What do the Speed and Domain Rating scores mean?

Current Speed measurements average 2 complete mobile PageSpeed lab samples on a 0–100 scale. Each measurement records its date and methodology; a lab result is different from real-user Core Web Vitals. Domain Rating is an Ahrefs metric on a 0–100 scale describing the relative strength of a website’s backlink profile. It is not a Google score or a product-quality rating. Both views retain dated history so readers can compare observations over time.
