Directory of Agents

AI agents a solo founder can actually run

Every tool here is realistic for one person: either no-code enough for a non-technical operator or technical-solo ready for a founder who can wire up code and review the work. Enterprise, sales-led, and team-only tools are filtered out, and we say so plainly on their pages.
