Requirements

AI tool required — the directory lists AI-powered products across categories
The 'Submit a tool' button now exits to boostmytool.com/submit-my-tool, a paid third-party submission service (reported $37 fee) that submits to 'up to 3 high-quality directories'
Form asks: email, tool link, tool name, tool description, pricing model, additional info; offers a bonus of 'up to 2 additional free directories'
Site terms reserve the right to 'approve, deny or cancel any service purchased... including free services'; prohibited content (harmful, sexual, violent) is banned

Click 'Submit a tool' on aitools.fyi — you are taken off-site to boostmytool.com/submit-my-tool (a Tally form)
Fill in tool details and pay the submission fee
BoostMyTool submits on your behalf to 'up to 3' unnamed directories
Alternatively, use /advertise on aitools.fyi for a direct paid feature

MAJOR caveat (per third-party audit): the $37 payment does not guarantee a listing on aitools.fyi itself — it buys submission to up to 3 unnamed directories, non-refundable, no acceptance or timeline guarantee
Historical free submission and a $30 fast-track existed as of early 2026 — both appear gone
aitools.fyi's own terms contradict the processor's on refunds — read both before paying
A 'Submit a blog post' Tally form (tally.so/r/3jb99x) exists in the footer as a separate route

A dedicated tool page at aitools.fyi/<slug> appearing in the directory/category listings

Whether any free self-serve listing route still exists
Which directories BoostMyTool actually submits to and whether aitools.fyi is among them
Whether organic editorial additions happen without payment
Whether listing links are dofollow
