How this List is framed
The selection method is stated so the community can evaluate the question as well as the ranking.
A directly usable web tool qualifies when it is built by one person or a team of no more than five, solves a specific problem, has a public product page, and can be tried or meaningfully evaluated now. Waitlists, agencies, token projects, and generic AI wrappers without a distinct workflow do not qualify. Affiliated nominations must be disclosed.
Starting candidates were editorially curated. All Fame and supporter counts come from real confirmed participation. Well-known subjects are welcome when they fit the question.
