Find
Discover websites through direct use, community recommendations, specialist lists, and independent research.
The useful internet deserves a better map.
Tooldex is a human-curated directory for websites that help you make, learn, solve, explore, or simply enjoy the web. It exists because search results and social feeds often reward what is loud, not what is useful.
Test
Check that a resource opens, serves a clear purpose, and offers enough real value to justify a place in the directory.
Organize
Group tools by the problem they solve, with focused collections and category pages instead of an endless feed.
Maintain
Review important collections, correct factual errors, and remove resources that disappear or stop being useful.
What Tooldex is not
Tooldex is not a security certification, a guarantee that a third-party service will remain free, or a substitute for professional advice. Pricing and features change. For time-sensitive decisions, the linked service remains the primary source.
How to help
You can suggest a genuinely useful website or report an error, dead link, or disclosure concern. Corrections are welcome and materially improve the directory.
