Navigating the Model Directory
The Model Directory (also called Intelligence Directory in the UI) is where you browse and search AI tools. This guide covers the layout, how tools are displayed, search, filters, and the difference between browse and detail views.
Where to Find It
Click Model Directory in the sidebar (library icon) or Directory on mobile. Route: /hub/model-directory. There is also a Browse page at /hub/browse with a similar layout and filters.
Layout
Top — Search bar and filter sections. Filters are collapsible.
Main area — Grid of tool cards. Scroll to load more (infinite scroll or pagination depending on implementation).
Tool cards — Each card shows at browse level:
- Logo
- Tool name
- Vendor (when available)
- Pricing (Free, From $X/mo, Contact)
- Short description or category
- Add to Stack or View — When logged in, you can add to My Stack. View opens the full profile.
Search
Type in the search bar to filter tools. Search typically matches name, description, and category. Results update as you type (instant search) or when you submit, depending on implementation.
Filters
Category — Filter by use case (e.g., Coding, Marketing, Writing). Categories may have sub-options.
Pricing — Free, Freemium, Paid. Narrow by budget.
Architecture — Foundation Model, AI Agent, Workflow Platform. Filter by tool type.
Capabilities — API Available, Open Source. Filter by technical requirements.
Compliance — Enterprise Compliance (e.g., SOC 2). Filter by certification.
Combine filters. Multiple selections within a section usually act as OR (e.g., Free OR Freemium). Across sections they act as AND.
Browse vs. Detail
Browse — Cards with summary info. Quick scan. Add to stack or click through.
Detail (tool profile) — Full page per tool. Overview, Technical Intelligence, Pricing, Integrations, Company & Trust, FAQ, Similar Tools. Token calculator and tier comparison when relevant. See >Reading a Tool Profile.
Add to Stack and Watchlist
When logged in, tool cards and profile pages have Add to Stack. Adds the tool to >My Stack. Some tools may have a Watchlist option to track without adding to your stack — check the UI for availability.
