Scale by scraping, and a genuine first

MCP Market did two notable things. It scaled fast, growing from under two thousand servers to a claimed 45,000-plus in months, and it built the one product no other directory has: a paid skills marketplace. Sellers upload a SKILL.md or import from GitHub, set their own price, and get a revenue-share storefront. Add daily Top MCPs and Top Agent Skills leaderboards, toolkit bundles, and API tokens, and it is the most commerce-shaped site in the ecosystem. If you want to charge money for a skill today, MCP Market is where that is possible.

The speed shows, though. Growth of that pace comes from scraping, and the category counts imply a long tail of thin auto-generated pages. Transparency is the other gap: the marketplace commission is unpublished, ad pricing hides behind a bot wall that likely hurts the site's own crawlability, the claimed one million unique visitors is unverified, and there is no newsletter or community anchoring the numbers.

The aiagentslisting approach

We optimize for the opposite failure mode. Every listing across AI agents, MCP servers, and agent skills is reviewed by a person, categorized, and cross-linked to the rest of the stack before it publishes, which keeps our catalog small while it is young. Every price we charge is published: listing via submit is free forever, and upgrades are one-time purchases. And the Heat leaderboard ranks purely on engagement, so a spot on it cannot be bought, bundled, or scraped into existence.

Which should you use?

Use MCP Market if you want to sell a skill for money or trawl the largest scraped index of servers and are comfortable filtering thin pages yourself. Use aiagentslisting if you want curated discovery across all three verticals with published pricing, a permanent free tier, and rankings that reflect usage rather than upload volume.
