About Appscribed
Appscribed is a bit different type of platform - it is an editorial AI tools directory that favors hand-written reviews over endless table rows. Since 2023 the team has evaluated thousands of products and keeps acceptance selective, so an approved tool lands on a dedicated review page aimed at buyers comparing software. Listings are permanent after editorial review (and may be charged for factual corrections that come after the initial 7 days of publishing), typically live within a couple of days, with optional homepage boost windows when you want extra surface area.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Can Blastra submit my product to Appscribed?
- Soon. Blastra is currently testing submissions to Appscribed — we're trialing it on a limited basis to confirm it delivers for customers before adding it to the standard service. Once testing wraps up, we'll handle submissions to Appscribed the same way as currently supported directories: account setup, listing copy, and approval follow-up, with no extra work on your side.
- Is Appscribed free?
- No. Appscribed requires a paid plan to be on the platform — there is no free option, even for a basic profile. Pricing varies by tier and is set by Appscribed; we don't have visibility into your specific quote until you contact them. If budget matters, this is worth knowing upfront.
- Should a AI company list on Appscribed?
- Yes — Appscribed's audience is built around AI, which makes it a strong fit for companies in that space. Niche directories typically outperform general ones for category-specific buyers because the audience comes pre-qualified by the platform itself. Worth being on if your category aligns with what Appscribed covers.
- Does Appscribed have reviews?
- No. Appscribed either doesn't host reviews at all or doesn't weight them in how listings get surfaced — it works on a different model, like editorial curation, traffic, or paid tiers. The value of being on Appscribed doesn't depend on running a review collection campaign for this listing.
- Does Appscribed accept beta or waitlist products?
- No — Appscribed only accepts products that are publicly available. Beta and waitlist-stage products are rejected because the reviewers want to see something they can actually try before approving the listing. Wait until you've moved out of private beta and the product is purchasable before submitting.
- What's the approval time for Appscribed?
- Approval time on Appscribed varies, but most submissions go live within 1-3 days based on what we've seen. The window depends on directory queue depth and how clean the submission is — incomplete forms, missing assets, or non-English websites all push the timeline toward the longer end of the range.
