## Which should you pick?

- Both are listed as free with paid plans, so price alone will not settle it.

## About CodeHype

CodeHype is a launch directory for AI tools, SaaS products, agents and developer products. Founders submit a product website and get a permanent product page with a backlink. The pitch is that a listing helps the product show up on Google, in AI search and in LLMs such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity and Grok.

Visitors can browse launches week by week, with upvote counts and rankings. Products are sorted into categories such as AI Agents, Developer Tools, Finance, Design and Education. There is also a blog and a section of directories.

Launching is free. Makers can pay for Plus or Pro "verified" badges, and sponsored ad slots on the launch feed start at $20 per week.

## About Ftify

Ftify is a directory for independent SaaS products and mobile apps, built for makers who just shipped something and need people to find it.

Listing takes a minute. Paste your product's link and Ftify reads your site to fill in the name, tagline, description, logo and share image. Pick a category, check the details and submit.

Every listing gets a permanent product page, shows up in Newly listed, categories and search, and collects upvotes and comments from the community.

Free listings go live within 15 days. They need the Ftify badge on the product's homepage, and while the badge is there, the "Visit website" link on the Ftify page is dofollow. If you'd rather not wait, Fast-track is $5 once and goes live within 12 hours with no badge needed.

The one rule Ftify doesn't bend: organic order is never for sale. Newly listed, categories and Top are ordered the same way for every product, and paying never adds votes. Featured placement ($24.99 for one month, only 3 spots) sits in its own labeled band at the top of the homepage, never mixed into the organic lists.

For visitors, Ftify is a place to find new indie apps and tools before everyone else does.
