Excited to share @retrieve.tools with you all.


There are many AI tools. Overwhelmingly so.

There are many sites that list AI tools. Too many to keep track of.


While it's fun to go on an open exploration of hyped up products, in a professional context, often you are looking for something quite specific, to your task, context, and domain.


We built Retrieve as a classification system that maps AI capabilities to how professionals actually work. Some lists focus on trending tools. We obsessed over taxonomy—organizing each tool by industry, function, and task-specific application.


For example, you may be a sales person who wants to make follow ups easier, enrich their leads, and get better at prospect research.


retrieve.tools/sales/follow-up-automation,leads-optimization,prospect-research


Or perhaps, you are a creative director that is looking to create 3d worlds and generate b-roll for ad spots.


retrieve.tools/creative/3d,video-generation


You get the point :)


We also thought it would be quite odd to have a tools site that is not AI native. As such, the entry point is AI search where you can query with language, each query leading to results page with a permanent link that is shareable.

  • 17 industry domains with granular sub-classifications

  • Natural language search for discovery

  • Precise filters for refinement

  • Permanent, shareable URLs that preserve your exact search path

Amazing idea beautifully designed. Is it possible to submit tools just like tools directories?

@adi_kurian the interface is broken in Brave browser

This is such a refreshing and much-needed approach! The focus on task-specific and domain-relevant classification is exactly what professionals need amid the noise. Excited to explore Retrieve—finally a way to find the right AI tool without getting lost in trend-chasing.

I just tested it and it’s amazing—great idea! I subscribed to the Sales domain but didn’t receive any confirmation email.


Anyway, congrats on the project. I’d like to make a quick suggestion regarding the newsletter subscription section: it might be helpful to clarify what users will get in exchange for their email, and to send a confirmation message that already delivers some value in the first interaction.


If you'd like, I’d be happy to record a quick Loom video explaining this in more detail.

damn crazy product this is called an amazing launch great work team @joe_dewulf

Design is awesome, congrats on the launch. Small question why does people have to record the demo (from your parent product) to submit their product. And on platform I cant see demo of any listed product, can you explain?

THIS is why I come to PH. AI to find AI. Love the idea guys, congratulations on the launch! The prioritization of professional context over hype is very nice. Will there be user reviews, quality scores, pricing, etc? Especially pricing is something I would love to see so that I only open websites of products that are free (I like free).


Also, how do you keep your taxonomy updated as new AI tools and categories emerge so quickly?
