About & methodology
ShipWithAI is a small, builders-only directory: AI coding tools, agents, vibe coding, agent frameworks and game dev AI.
How tools get listed
- Candidates come from GitHub, Hacker News, Product Hunt and X, plus submissions.
- Every official URL is checked to load before listing, and re-checked periodically (date shown on each tool page).
- Pricing is shown as a broad tier (Free, Freemium, Paid, Open source, Usage-based). Always confirm current prices on the vendor's site.
How we rank
How we rank: output quality on real builder tasks (40%) · fit for the use case (25%) · pricing & free-tier value (15%) · openness / lock-in (10%) · momentum & maintenance (10%). Editorial judgment, not lab benchmarks; paid placement never changes order. Methodology
Honest limits
- Takes are short editorial opinions, not hands-on lab tests of every tool.
- Tools change fast; if something is wrong, tell us and we'll fix it.
- "Added" dates are when a tool entered our directory, not its launch date.
