Requirements

Positioning: a curated directory of AFFORDABLE alternatives to popular AI/SaaS tools — the product should be pitched as a budget-friendly competitor to a known tool
Site is JS-rendered — both homepage and /submit return empty bodies to plain fetchers
Third-party sources report a submission fee around $199 with a ~$99 'premium/fast-track' option via discount code, and a 30-60 day review window (fast-track ~1 week)
Copy angle expected: 'share how you are better when compared to your competitor'

Product URL, name, and a comparison pitch naming the expensive incumbent you undercut
Clear low pricing — affordability is the directory's premise
Payment for the submission fee (figure unverified on first-party page)
A browser — the site cannot be driven by static HTML fetches

Open https://www.affordhunt.com/submit in a browser
Complete the submission form, positioning the product as an affordable alternative to a named tool
Pay the submission fee and wait through the stated review window (30-60 days per third-party sources)
Verify the listing appears in the tools index

Conflicting fee reports ($199 vs $99-with-code vs 'fast-track $99') — read the live submit page before paying
Positioning trap: the directory is specifically about CHEAP alternatives — a premium-priced product does not fit the premise
Site renders nothing without JavaScript — cannot be audited statically
Third-party copy suggests the same operator runs a 'submit to 150+ directories' service — the submission may funnel into a paid distribution service rather than a simple listing

The product appears as a card in the AffordHunt tools directory
