# How to Search for Tools

FutureStack makes it easy to find the right AI tool for your needs. Here are the main ways to search.

## Using the Search Bar

The search bar is available at the top of every page. Type a keyword, such as "image generation", "code assistant", or "chatbot", and FutureStack will return matching tools.

<Tip>
  Try searching by use case (e.g., "write blog posts") rather than tool name for better discovery.
