Hey Product Hunt π
I built Trove because finding the right tool has gotten worse, not better β
SEO-spam listicles, 50-link directories, "10 best X" posts that are all
affiliate links.
Trove flips it: tell it a goal, get ONE best pick with the reasons why, plus
a few alternatives. And for bigger goals ("build an AI SaaS," "run AI
locally"), it generates a complete free workflow stack β every layer, why
it's there, total cost.
196 tools, all hand-checked. No account needed to use it, no affiliate links,
no dark patterns.
Would genuinely love your feedback on the recommendations β try a goal you
know well and tell me if the pick is right or if I got it wrong. I'll be here
all day replying to everything.

Love that everything is hand-checked, it really shows in the quality. One thing that would help me a lot: let users save sites to personal lists or collections within Trove, so I can organize bookmarks by project or topic instead of just scrolling the main feed.

@abdullahsa7xyΒ Appreciate that a lot β quality over quantity is the entire premise, so glad it shows. Quick tip for right now: you can bookmark any site with the bookmark icon and they collect on your Saved page. But you've nailed the real gap β one flat list isn't enough. Named, per-project/per-topic collections are squarely on the roadmap, and a shareable "toolkit" link (bundle your saved sites into one URL) is coming even sooner. Consider this the nudge that bumps it up. Would you want those collections to be shareable/public, or mostly a private organizer?

Love the hand-checked angle, that already sets Trove apart from the usual auto-scraped lists. One thing that would make me come back more often is a small "recently loved by the editors" section on the homepage so I can see what new sites got added this week without digging through category pages.

@lhan1427713Β Thank you β hand-checking every listing is the whole bet, so it means a lot that it comes through. And you're reading my mind: there's a "recently added" block on the homepage today, but a proper "fresh this week, picked by the editors" section is exactly the editorial layer it's missing. I'm moving it up the list β would genuinely love to have you back to see it land. What kinds of sites would make it a must-check for you each week?

Curated directories usually bury me in stale links but Trove actually feels alive, especially the AI and dev tool sections. Liked that each entry shows why it was picked instead of just a URL dump.
