# ToolsVerse > ToolsVerse (thetoolsverse.com) is a hand-curated directory of 780+ verified AI tools across 70+ categories. Founded and personally reviewed by Sohail Akhtar, it helps founders, developers, marketers, and creators find the best artificial-intelligence software, compare close alternatives, and discover genuinely free AI tools. Every tool is manually reviewed before listing — the free tier is tested, the docs are read, and the description is written by a human, not scraped. When a tool stops working, it is removed. Key facts: - Independent and human-curated: each listing is verified by the founder, not auto-generated. - Editorial integrity: some links are affiliate links that fund the site, but they never influence reviews, rankings, or whether a tool is listed (disclosed on every page). - Free tool submissions are reviewed manually; a Domain Authority (DA) of ~10+ is recommended for free listings. - Strong coverage of free and freemium AI tools, side-by-side comparisons, and "best alternative" guides. ## Core Pages -
