Why ToolJunction

Distribution without a marketplace feel

A partner profile should feel like a verified reference page, not another promo card in a crowded services marketplace.

Buyer intent

Readers are already comparing AI tools

Reach founders, operators, and product teams who are already comparing AI tools and deciding whether they need implementation help.

Context

Your profile sits near relevant guides

Partner profiles can be surfaced from matching guides and category pages when the next step is hiring a team, not buying another tool.

Profile

A permanent page buyers can verify

Get a reviewed, permanent profile page with your services, proof points, and a clear route for buyers to contact you.

Leads

Project briefs arrive with context

Project briefs include scope, budget, timeline, and contact details so you can qualify faster and respond directly.

One reviewed profile, paid once

$199 one-time for the founding cohort. Permanent placement, no recurring fee, and no commission on projects you close.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How does the 90-day lead guarantee work?

Every lead a buyer submits through the partner listings lands in your partner dashboard. If 90 days after your listing goes live there are zero qualified leads in your dashboard, you email us and we refund the listing fee within 5 business days. Your listing stays live; only the fee gets refunded. We can offer this because we control the routing, so we know exactly what landed in your dashboard. No honor-system arguments.

How are leads delivered?

Buyers click "Get a quote" on your listing and submit a structured project brief: scope, budget, timeline, and contact details. The lead is routed straight to your partner dashboard, where you can reply, mark status, and track outcomes. We email you when a new lead arrives so nothing sits in a tab you forgot to open.

What counts as a qualified lead?

A real person submitting a real project brief through the partner intake form. The form requires scope, budget, and timeline, which filters out most bots and pitches. Spam, agency-pitching-agency, and our own QA tests don't count toward your dashboard total. If you got nothing real in 90 days, you get refunded. No technicality fights.

Why are you capping at 20 partners?

Two reasons. One, the cross-promo only works if every partner is actually good. We'd rather hand-pick 20 that we'd recommend ourselves than open the floodgates and dilute the roster. Two, lower volume per category means each partner gets a real share of attention from buyers reading our guides. After the founding 20 we'll re-open with standard pricing and a slower review.

Is this a subscription?

No. It's a single one-time payment for a permanent listing. We don't add monthly fees later, and we don't take a cut of any leads or projects you close. If we ever introduce a separate paid lead-gen tier, it'll be optional and additive, not replacing what you already have.

What audience am I reaching?

AI-tool buyers: founders, operators, and product/engineering leads at SaaS, ecommerce, and services businesses actively shopping for AI tools and the people who can wire them up. ~100K monthly visits, biased toward English-speaking decision-makers in North America, Europe, and APAC.

How do you decide if I'm a fit?

Three checks: (1) you have a working website with portfolio or case studies; (2) you actually ship the services you list, and we will look; (3) the work is in scope (AI implementation, not generic web dev). About 15% of submissions get sent back. If we reject yours, you get a full refund.

Can I change my listing after going live?

Yes. Email us with the change and we'll update within 24 hours. A self-serve dashboard is on the roadmap once we hit ~50 partners.

What about leads?

Qualified buyers submit a project brief with scope, budget, timeline, and contact details. The brief lands in your partner dashboard and we email you when a new lead arrives.
