Why this site

Marketing software and services are hard to compare: pricing changes, features are described in marketing language, and it is hard to tell what has been checked. This directory lists tools, services and resources by category, use case and business type, links to each vendor's official site, and shows the date each listing's facts were last checked and from which page. It collects no ratings or reviews.

Alongside the directory, the guides cover one business type at a time, with sourced rules and a first 90 days you can act on.

How listings are made

Each listing is compiled from the vendor's own public pages (product, pricing, documentation, security). The research is AI-assisted: pages are fetched and summarised, a second pass re-checks prices, plans, trials and compliance statements against the same pages, and automated checks validate the data and the build. Anything that cannot be confirmed on an official page is left out. The date and source page appear on every listing.

Listings are not hands-on tested unless a listing says it was. There are no ratings, reviews or rankings. The full criteria are in the editorial policy. Spotted a mistake? Tell us.
