// the take
A link list of AI-related tools and services, split into categories like writing, image, audio, video and developer tools. It's not code or a library, just a README with outbound links, aimed at someone wanting a quick directory of mainstream AI products rather than anything to integrate or run.
Categories are sensible (text, design, image, audio, video, developer) so you can skim to the section you care about. The entries include short descriptions instead of bare links, so you get some sense of what each tool does without clicking through.
Last pushed mid-2023 — in a space that moves this fast, over two years stale means most of the interesting entrants of the last two years (agents, local-model tooling, the current wave of coding assistants) are simply absent. Almost every link is a closed commercial SaaS product (Jasper, Synthesia, Murf, Runway, Copy.ai), not open source, so there's nothing here to fork, audit, or self-host. No vetting criteria are stated and no entries have ever been pruned, so dead or acquired products likely sit next to current ones with no way to tell which. As a GitHub repo this is just a markdown file — there's no mechanism (script, CI check) verifying links still resolve.
We read the README, the directory tree and a key source file in October 2026. Nobody pays to be listed. How we judge →
