Honestly, there are already a ton of AI tool directories and "top 10" lists out there, and I'm not trying to reinvent any of that.
The one thing I kept looking for and couldn't really find was a bit different. Not a catalog of every tool that exists, but what people actually run together as a stack. So that's all stackd is. You share the few tools you actually reach for, and it ranks the stacks by how many real people run them, not by who paid to be on a list.
The part I like: votes pool on the toolset, not the person. So if a bunch of people quietly run the same combo, it climbs on its own, and you can see who else runs yours. No signup to share, and the numbers stay honest (if it's empty, it says empty).
Also you can submit any AI tools (that's not already there) if you really think people are using it.
That's pretty much it. Would love to hear what you're actually running, and what I should add.
ranking by actual usage instead of paid placements is the right call. every "top AI tools" list out there is basically an affiliate page at this point. being able to see what combos real people are running together is way more useful than another curated list
No-signup sharing is nice, but it also makes the leaderboard trust question more interesting. How do you handle duplicate submissions or someone pushing the same stack a bunch of times?
