WHY USE AI TOOLS EXPLORER? New AI tools launch every day. You find something promising, open a few tabs, maybe bookmark it, and then it disappears into a folder you never check again. AI Tools Explorer fixes that by turning every discovery into a searchable, sortable, tagged entry you can actually find later. No sign-ups. No subscriptions. No data collection. Just a clean, fast tool tracker that works offline and stays private. HOW IT WORKS Right-click any webpage and select "Save this AI tool." A dialog opens with the URL and page title already filled in. Add an optional note, a star rating from 1 to 5, and any tags you want. Click Save. Done. Your saved tools appear in the toolbar popup. Search by name, URL, note text, or tag. Filter by tag. Sort by newest, oldest, rating, or title. Edit any entry at any time to update your notes, rating, or tags. That is the entire workflow. No learning curve, no configuration, no onboarding screens. FEATURES Save AI tools with one right-click Click "Save this AI tool" from the context menu on any page or link. The URL and title are pre-populated so you can save in seconds or take a moment to add details. Star ratings (1 to 5) Rate every tool you try. Sort your collection by rating to surface your favorites instantly. Custom tags Create your own tags as you go. The extension suggests tags you have used before as you type, so your taxonomy stays consistent without any setup. Notes Write a quick note about what the tool does, what you liked, what you did not like, or what you want to test next. Notes are searchable from the main popup. Search, filter, and sort Search across titles, URLs, notes, and tags from one search box. Filter by any tag. Sort by date saved, rating, or title. Edit anytime Update the title, note, rating, or tags on any saved entry. Your collection evolves as your experience with each tool deepens. Export and import Back up your entire collection as a JSON file with one click. Import it on another machine or restore from a backup. Your data is always portable and always yours. Check on AI Tools Explorer Right-click any page and select "Check on AI Tools Explorer" to instantly search whether that tool is listed on aitoolsexplorer.com, one of the largest manually curated AI tool directories on the web. Surprise me Hit the "Surprise me" button in the footer to discover a random AI tool from the AI Tools Explorer directory. A quick way to find something new when you are browsing with no particular goal. WHO IS THIS FOR? Developers evaluating AI coding assistants, API providers, and dev tools. Marketers comparing AI writing tools, SEO assistants, ad generators, and analytics platforms. Entrepreneurs scouting AI tools for automation, customer support, content creation, and operations. Researchers tracking AI models, datasets, benchmarks, and research tools. Students exploring AI learning platforms, tutors, and study aids. Anyone who tries more AI tools than they can keep track of. PRIVACY AI Tools Explorer collects zero user data. There is no backend server. There are no analytics. There are no external API calls. There is no tracking of any kind. All saved tools, notes, ratings, and tags are stored locally in your browser using Chrome's built-in storage. Nothing is transmitted anywhere. The only external pages the extension opens are aitoolsexplorer.com (when you click the logo or "Surprise me") and a standard Google search (when you use "Check on AI Tools Explorer"). Both open as normal browser tabs initiated by you. Your data stays on your machine. Period. TIPS FOR GETTING THE MOST OUT OF IT Use consistent tags. Pick a small set of tags early on (like "writing," "image," "coding," "free," "paid," "api") and stick with them. The tag suggestion feature helps with this automatically. Rate as you go. A quick star rating right after testing a tool is more useful than trying to remember your impression weeks later. Add short notes. Even one sentence ("fast but output quality is inconsistent" or "free tier limited to 10 generations") makes your collection dramatically more useful when you revisit it. Export regularly. One click, one JSON file, full backup. Store it wherever you keep important files. Use "Check on AI Tools Explorer" before saving. If the tool is already listed on aitoolsexplorer.com, you can read the full profile, see what category it belongs to, and check whether it is still active before committing it to your personal collection. ABOUT AI TOOLS EXPLORER AI Tools Explorer (aitoolsexplorer.com) is a manually curated directory of AI tools across more than 20 categories and 170 subcategories. Every listing is reviewed by a human. The directory helps users find the right AI tool for any task and helps tool creators get discovered. This extension is a companion utility for anyone who researches AI tools regularly. It is not required to use the directory and the directory is not required to use the extension. They work great together and they work great independently.
