Our take

Slashdot Software is the B2B software review and comparison section of the long-running tech news site, and it accepts AI tools alongside general software. A basic listing is free through a SourceForge vendor signup, which also places the product on SourceForge, with paid promotion available. Listings don't link directly to vendor sites, but the directory gets about 340k search visits a month and more than 12,000 AI-search citations.

Slashdot: News for nerds, stuff that matters. Timely news source for technology related news and B2B software reviews & comparisons.
