Is AlternativeTo worth it?

AlternativeTo is free and is where people look for a replacement for a tool they already use. It is not AI-only, which is a strength: your tool shows up on the pages of the products you compete with. When we checked, the Official Website link was dofollow on some listings and nofollow on others, and listings waiting for review were nofollow.

How to submit, step by step

  1. Create an account (Google, GitHub, Apple or email).
  2. Add a new app: name, website, a short description, platforms, license and pricing.
  3. Add the apps your tool is an alternative to. This is how people find you on the "alternatives to X" pages.
  4. Upload a logo and screenshots, then wait for moderation.

What to prepare

  • A list of 3 to 5 tools you are an alternative to
  • A short, factual description
  • Logo and screenshots
  • Platforms and pricing

Tips

  • Pick alternatives honestly. Listing unrelated big brands gets edits rejected.
  • Ask real users to like or comment on your listing over time; do not run vote campaigns.

AlternativeTo is one of them: the Kit writes a ready text for it, cut to its limits. The Launch Kit gives you a hand-checked list of 65 places to submit an AI tool, with price, dofollow or nofollow, DR and the check date for each one. Describe your tool once and get a tagline, short and long description and maker comment for every site, cut to its limits, plus a one-week plan with reminders.
