General
What is the AI Tools Marketplace?
The AI Tools Marketplace is a platform that connects AI tool creators with businesses and developers who need AI solutions. We help you discover, evaluate, and access the perfect AI tools for your specific needs.
Is the platform free to use?
Yes! Browsing tools, searching, and contacting sellers is completely free. Sellers pay a small commission only when they make successful connections through our platform.
How do you ensure tool quality?
We have a comprehensive verification process for sellers, user reviews and ratings system, and a quality assurance team that monitors listings. All sellers must pass verification before listing tools.
Can I try tools before purchasing?
Many sellers offer free trials, demos, or freemium versions. You can discuss trial options directly with sellers before making any commitments.
Getting Started
How do I create an account?
Click 'Sign Up' in the top right corner, choose your account type (buyer, seller, or both), provide your email and basic information, then verify your email address.
What's the difference between buyer and seller accounts?
Buyer accounts are for finding and purchasing AI tools. Seller accounts are for listing and selling your AI tools. You can have both capabilities on a single account.
How do I find the right AI tool for my needs?
Use our search and filter system to narrow down options by category, price, ratings, and features. Read detailed descriptions, check reviews, and contact sellers with questions.
How do I list my AI tool for sale?
Go to your seller dashboard, click 'Add New Listing', fill out the detailed form with descriptions, media, and pricing, then submit for review. Tools typically go live within 24-48 hours.
Payments & Pricing
How does pricing work on the platform?
Sellers set their own prices using various models: free, one-time purchase, subscription, or custom enterprise pricing. All pricing is clearly displayed on each tool's listing.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept all major credit cards, PayPal, and bank transfers. Payment processing is handled securely through our verified payment partners.
What are your fees for sellers?
We charge a 5% commission on successful connections for free accounts, 3% for Pro sellers ($29/month), and custom rates for Enterprise accounts.
What is your refund policy?
Refund policies vary by seller and are clearly stated on each listing. For subscription services, you can typically cancel anytime. Contact support if you have issues with a purchase.
How do I get invoices for my purchases?
Invoices are automatically generated and sent to your email after each transaction. You can also download them from your account dashboard under 'Purchase History'.
Communication
How do I contact a seller?
Click the 'Contact Seller' button on any tool listing. Fill out the inquiry form with your requirements, and the seller will receive your message directly.
How quickly do sellers respond?
Most verified sellers respond within 24 hours. Pro sellers typically respond even faster. Response times are displayed on seller profiles to help set expectations.
Can I have video calls with sellers?
Yes! Many sellers offer video demonstrations and consultations. You can arrange these directly through our messaging system or external platforms.
What should I include in my first message to a seller?
Describe your use case, technical requirements, budget range, and timeline. The more specific you are, the better the seller can assist you.

How do I delete my account?
Contact our support team to request account deletion. We'll guide you through the process and ensure all your data is properly removed.
Can I have multiple accounts?
We recommend using one account with both buyer and seller capabilities. Multiple accounts for the same person are not allowed and may result in suspension.

How do you protect my personal information?
We use industry-standard encryption, secure data centers, and strict privacy policies. Your payment information is never stored on our servers.
How do I report suspicious activity or scams?
Use the 'Report' button on any listing or profile, or contact our support team. We investigate all reports promptly and take appropriate action.
What should I do if I'm not satisfied with a tool?
