Find the lists you're missing
The Gap Finder reads the “best tools” articles for your category and shows the ones that name your competitors and not you.
Get listed where it's free
The Directory Checker shows which SaaS directories already list you, and which of the rest are free and give a followed link.
Pitch the authors
Each gap comes with the article, who wrote it and when it was last updated. The Pitch Grader checks your note before you send it.
Keep the links you win
Monitoring checks your links every week and emails you when one is removed, so you can ask for it back.

Seven tools, free with daily limits. None is open yet: the first three open at launch, and the waitlist hears first.

We don't have a crawl of the whole web, and we don't estimate links we haven't seen. Every number says where it came from.

Search results: We search for your category with the Serper and Brave Search APIs and read the top articles ourselves. Each result names the searches we ran.
The pages themselves: Our crawler, GetPickedBot, fetches each article and directory page, obeys robots.txt and records the date it checked.
AI answers: We ask Google Gemini through its API. That's a proxy: answers in the Gemini app can differ, and change from run to run.
Your uploads: Your file stays private to your workspace. We only add a link to our shared database after we've checked it ourselves.

The free tools stay free. Nothing is on sale yet: paid plans open after launch, and the waitlist hears first.

Annual plans cost 10 months, so 2 months are free. Refunds within 14 days, no questions asked.

We'll email you when the paid plans open. Nothing else, unless you tick the box for tips.
