Going Global / AI Product Tools Collection Directory (Will's Product Hunt Ecosystem Tool Link Index Organized by Industry + Category, index_only)

This is a bookmark collection of going-global + AI product tool links exported by Will from Product Hunt / Notion. It is neither a design methodology nor a tutorial — each entry only contains "product name + official website URL + bilingual category title". It covers 26 major industry categories (AI Agents / LLMs / Voice AI / E-commerce / Finance / Design & Creativity / Engineering & Development / Productivity / Company Operations / Product R&D / Marketing & Sales / Social & Community / Consumer / Health & Fitness / Healthcare / Travel / Education / Real Estate / Industry / Government / Home / Physical Products / Plugins / Platforms / Web3, etc.) plus one Mobbin App/Web design reference list, with around 256 subcategories and approximately 2,600+ tool links. Its purpose is "when I need to find a certain type of tool (payment/translation/AI avatar/no-code website building/CRM…), quickly recall which benchmarkable references Will has bookmarked". Design knowledge such as i18n / global design patterns / ethics is not included here; see nngroup-patterns-ethics-global-emerging.

AI ToolsProduct DiscoveryTool directory

What this is: A collection of official website links for going-global + AI products bookmarked by Will, organized in three layers: "Industry → Subcategory → Representative Tools". Most are sourced from Product Hunt (links often carry ?ref=producthunt), with a small number recommended by ChatGPT (?utm_source=chatgpt.com). What this is not: It is not a design methodology, not a review, and not a usage tutorial. The original file contains approximately zero prose (only the Consumer category and a few other categories have a one-sentence description); its value lies in "quickly recalling which benchmarkable reference objects exist for a given type of tool". Scale: 26 industry files + 1 Mobbin design reference list; around 256 subcategories; over 2,600 tool links. How to use: Grep this file for category keywords (such as "payment", "translation", "AI avatar", "no-code", "CRM"), then go back to the original source file to get the full URL list after obtaining the representative tool names. Each category lists 3–8 representative tools, which is not exhaustive; the complete list is in sources/reference/will-design-notes/Global Product Reference/.

Index Usage Tips

  • Meaning of URL suffixes:?ref=producthunt = clicked in from Product Hunt rankings;?utm_source=chatgpt.com = recommended by ChatGPT; entries without a suffix are mostly leading mature products or official websites of hard-tech startups.
  • Duplication is normal: The same tool may appear across multiple categories/files (for example, ElevenLabs is listed under both AI Agents and Voice AI; Lindy is listed under AI Agents, Sales, and No-Code) — this indicates it serves cross-scenario use cases, not an entry error.
  • This is a snapshot: Product Hunt-style startups have a low survival rate, and some links may have become invalid; this directory only reflects what Will "bookmarked at the time" and does not guarantee current availability.
  • Where to find full URLs: This wiki only lists representative tool names; for the full URL list of each category, go to sources/reference/will-design-notes/Global Product Reference/<行业文件>.md to retrieve it.
