I built TopTools.io: A 2026-2027 AI Directory with Multi-Tool Workflow Blueprints

dev.to AI2026-11-05 02:110 views

Hey developers! 👋

Most AI directories today are just static phone-book lists of 5,000 tools. Users don't just want a single tool—they want to know how to chain 3-4 tools together to automate a full workflow.

So I spent the last few days building TopTools.io using Next.js (App Router), Tailwind CSS, Supabase, and Vercel!

🔗 Live Website: https://toptools-seven.vercel.app

What makes TopTools different:

⚡ Multi-Tool AI Blueprints: Step-by-step recipes (e.g., Faceless Media Studio, Solo 48-Hour SaaS Launch) with exact copyable prompts.
📸 Automated Live Screenshots: Dynamic visual previews for every listed tool.
⚖️ Side-by-Side Comparison: Compare pricing, category, and community upvotes of any 2 tools.
❤️ My Stack: LocalStorage bookmarking to organize your personal stack.

It's completely free to browse. Would love your honest feedback on the UI and workflow blueprints! What tools should I curate next? 🚀
