The software source language models already use

When a buyer asks ChatGPT what to buy, your name should be in the answer.

Toolradar is the catalog those models already retrieve. We run the content and the 6 newsletters (810K+) that keep you there.

The platform of choice for LLMs

60%+

of the clicks we can measure come from ChatGPT, Claude, or Perplexity.

This is where models go to recommend tools.

ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity already pull this catalog when someone asks for the best CRM or an alternative to HubSpot. Most buyers read that answer and never click out. The 60%+ is only the leftover.

Get in the catalog, stay in the pages we write, and you are in the next conversation. That is the channel.

Default source

Models already come here for "best X" and "alternative to Y." We publish /llms.txt so they can keep doing that.

The next conversation

The buyer asks an assistant before they visit anyone's site. If you are in this catalog, you are in that answer.

It stays in later answers

A listing does not expire with the campaign. Models keep retrieving it the next time someone asks.

The network

The surfaces models and buyers already use.

Toolradar for the answers. 6 newsletters for the people who still read email, 810K+ of them.

FAQ

Questions we get a lot.

Are you a marketing agency?

No. Toolradar is the software catalog language models already use when a buyer asks what to buy. ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity send us 60%+ of the clicks we can measure. Most buyers never click. They take the recommendation in the chat.

Around that catalog we run 6 newsletters (Techpresso, AIpresso, MarketingShot, Devshot, Cyberpresso, Finpresso) and the content work that keeps you in those answers: SEO, editorial, native articles, Reddit, Instagram, backlinks. Agencies rent attention. This source set is already built.

Who do you work with?

B2B tech companies whose buyers are technical or semi-technical, engineers, founders, ops leads, CISOs, CFOs. People who research tools before they buy, read tech newsletters, evaluate by reading docs, and ignore generic feed ads.

Verticals we know best: dev tools, AI, cybersecurity, Fintech, Martech, B2B SaaS. Who we don't fit: pure consumer brands, companies that need lots of in-person field marketing, and B2B teams whose buyers don't research independently.

What do you actually do?

We get your product into the answers models already give, and in front of the people who still read email. SEO, editorial content, native articles, Reddit, Instagram, backlinks. All of it runs through Toolradar and the 6 newsletters.

We don't buy Google or LinkedIn ads. That's not the channel we own.

How are you different from B2B SaaS marketing agencies?

Agencies sell a playbook and rent media. We are the source ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity already retrieve for software. 60%+ of the clicks we can measure come from those chats. Most buyers never leave the chat.

The rest of the work (newsletters, SEO, editorial, placements) exists to keep you in that source set. We don't have a branded methodology. We use what fits your category and drop what doesn't.

What's a typical engagement like?

We work in monthly retainers, scoped to your goals. The shape:

- Days 1 to 30 (diagnostic): audit your current marketing, ICP, content, SEO health, content gaps, and pipeline attribution. We talk to your founders, head of growth, and one or two existing customers. By day 30 you have a written diagnostic with concrete starting moves.

- Days 31 to 90 (setup + first placements): we build the content calendar, ship infrastructure (analytics, brand voice docs, distribution templates), and launch the first placements across our network.

- Months 4+ (execution and scaling): we run the program with weekly performance reviews and monthly strategic shifts. The work compounds, content placed across our network keeps producing pipeline long after the placement runs.

What's the pricing?

Custom monthly retainer scoped to your stage, goals, and the mix of services you need. Newsletter sponsorships, native articles, and backlink placements are billed at media-rate (no agency markup).

For the fastest path to a real number for your situation, take the 2-minute diagnostic at /growth/diagnostic, we get back to you within 24 to 48 hours with a proposed scope and cost.

Can you work alongside our in-house team?

Yes, most of our clients have an in-house marketing or growth team, and that's typically the better setup. We complement them with three things they usually can't bring on their own:

- Capacity for execution-heavy work (content production at volume, native article writing, ongoing community management) that a small in-house team physically can't ship. - Specialized expertise (technical SEO, programmatic SEO, Reddit posting in communities we own) where hiring full-time would be overkill. - Owned media distribution they can't replicate, we don't compete with the in-house team on this; we extend their reach.

We set this up as a true collaboration: shared Slack channel, weekly syncs, transparent cost of work. Your head of growth runs the strategy; we do the execution.

What's the fastest way to get started?

Take the 2-minute diagnostic at /growth/diagnostic. It asks 5 to 7 questions about your stage, ICP, current marketing, and goals, and routes you to a recommended scope and timeline.

After the diagnostic, we reply within 24 to 48 hours with a written scope proposal. If it makes sense to talk, the next step is a 30-minute call with whoever would actually own your account, not a sales rep. No decks, no "discovery week," no procurement gauntlet.

Do language models actually use Toolradar?

Yes. We are the software catalog they already pull from. 60%+ of the people who click through to us come from ChatGPT, Claude, or Perplexity. That is only the ones who left the chat.

We publish /llms.txt so models can ingest the directory, comparisons, and category pages. When someone asks for the best tool in a category, those pages are already in the mix. A listing here is source material for the next conversation.
