Comparing listing channels for MCP servers and AI agent tools

On October 3, 2026, DEV Community's AI section published a post titled "Where to list your MCP server and AI agent tool: free vs. paid channels." The author opens with a disclosure: AgentoolRank is his own project, and it is also one of the directories that appears in the comparison table that accompanies the post.

The post puts AgentoolRank and other directories that accept MCP servers and AI agent tools into a single table, comparing free listings against paid ones by price and by review time. The author notes that these details were checked one by one on each site's submit page on October 1, 2026. He also warns that prices and rules change over time, so readers should follow the links and verify the current terms before deciding.

The up-to-date version of the table lives at agentoolrank.com/where-to-list, which the post points readers to rather than the table embedded in the article itself. That page now also carries a filterable list of 101 general directories that the author says his own products went through, with free options among them described.

The post does not give the actual prices or review times for any of the channels, and no other developments are reported. As of this writing, the account stops at the publication of the comparison table and its companion directory list.
