About 0102.ai
We are founders and operators who spent years building products inside large tech companies and advising early-stage startups. We built 0102.ai because we lived the frustration of not knowing where to get discovered.
Who We Are
Experienced Operators
The founders of 0102.ai have worked with companies such as Amazon and Microsoft — building products, leading growth initiatives, and understanding how large-scale distribution and discoverability actually works from the inside.
Silicon Valley Startup Advisors
We have advised startups in the United States — including companies in Silicon Valley — on go-to-market strategy, distribution, and early traction. We know what it takes to get a product off the ground, and the role that the right directories, communities, and launch platforms play in that journey.
We are not a faceless link aggregator. Every platform in our index has been reviewed by someone who has either used it to launch a product, knows a founder who has, or has investigated it thoroughly on their behalf. Our credibility is built on having been in the rooms where these decisions are made.
Why We Built 0102.ai
Every founder we know has Googled some version of "where do I submit my SaaS?" The answers online are either outdated blog posts from 2019, affiliate-heavy listicles, or Reddit threads where half the links are dead. We decided to fix that.
0102.ai is our answer: a maintained, curated, opinionated index of the places that actually move the needle — sorted by Domain Rating, traffic tier, approval speed, and real-world impact.
The name is intentional. Step 01 is building it. Step 02 is being found. Most indie founders nail Step 01. We are here to make Step 02 as straightforward as possible.
Our Editorial Standards
Every directory listed on 0102.ai is evaluated against a consistent set of criteria before it is added. We do not accept payment to include or exclude platforms. Sponsored listings are clearly labeled and kept separate from editorial rankings.
Domain Authority
We verify each platform's Domain Rating using established SEO tools. Low-DA or spammy sites are excluded regardless of their reach.
Traffic & Real Audience
We look at estimated monthly visitors and whether a platform has an engaged community, not just an indexed page.
Approval Process
We document real approval times sourced from founder reports and our own submissions — not the platform's marketing copy.
Founder Impact
We prioritize platforms where founders have reported measurable outcomes: signups, backlinks, press, or early customers.
Active Maintenance
Dead directories are removed. We check that platforms are actively maintained and accepting new submissions.
Transparent Pricing
We clearly flag free, freemium, and paid tiers so founders can plan their distribution budget accurately.
Corrections & Updates
The directory landscape changes quickly. Platforms close, pricing changes, approval processes shift. If you spot an error — a dead link, incorrect DR, or outdated approval time — please let us know. We take accuracy seriously and aim to act on corrections within 48 hours.
Report a Correction →Sponsorship & Commercial Disclosure
0102.ai is free to browse. We sustain the project through two revenue streams:
- //Sponsored listings — clearly labeled with a 'Sponsored' badge and never mixed into editorial rankings.
- //Paid submissions — founders can pay for expedited review of a platform they want added. Inclusion is still at our editorial discretion.
We do not accept payment to improve the editorial rank of any platform, and we do not remove negative information in exchange for commercial relationships.
