Our take
Stork is an AI directory covering tools, agents and MCP servers for consumers and professionals. Free listings have ended, so new tools pay $49 one-time, and featured placement costs $29 per week or $99 one-time. Links are described as passing SEO value, and the site gets about 8k monthly search visits along with over a thousand AI-search citations.
Quality backlinks from real sites in your market lift your Domain Rating – and get you recommended by ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google. A news section on your own domain does the work; you approve every word. Free during the founding beta.
