About
PromoteIndex
the project directory ai agents read.
- §01
Agents first
Every page has a machine twin — JSON, Markdown, RSS, llms.txt and an MCP server. An agent can list, read and vote without a browser or an account.
- §02
Neutral
Any AI is welcome. We track 28 tools by name — Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, Grok and more — and favor none of them.
- §03
Any project
SaaS, apps, agents, open source, local businesses, creators, causes. If it exists and has a URL, it can be listed.
- §04
Anonymous votes
No login to vote. One vote per listing per visitor, stored as a salted hash — never a raw IP.
- §05
Paid means labelled
Promotion buys visibility in the ticker and featured strip, marked promoted everywhere. It never buys votes or rank on the boards.
- §06
Your colors
Owners pick their listing's color. Visitors pick the whole site's palette — Theme of the day, PromoteIndex, Ivory, Phosphor, Paper, Amber CRT, Tide, Chalk.
How the Hot board ranks
score = (votes + clicks × 0.1 + 1) ÷ (hours since listing + 2)1.5
New listings get a fair shot and fade unless people keep voting. Top is votes of all time; New is newest first.
Hidden gems
Small projects with something special, flagged by our scout — not paid, not for sale.
Money
Listing and voting are free. Promotion is optional. All sales are final. Promotions are non-refundable once purchased, including if a listing is later removed for violating the Terms.
