Conditional free route directory
Researched from public pages — no submission was run · sources read 2026-09-25. Rules change — recheck the platform's own pages before submitting.
What the free route requires
- Community gate: the onboard flow reportedly requires three comments and three likes on other people's tools (with live counters) before the listing form unlocks
- Standard Listing is $0 only as a 'limited-time offer' against a $15 list price — the free lane is not guaranteed to persist
- Free-tier listing links were sampled as nofollow; the $9/month Featured tier is reportedly the only one carrying a backlink
- Sign-in is required; the /pricing 'Submit Your Tool' button silently does nothing — navigate directly to /onboard
Requirements
- SaaS/software tools for a general SaaS directory (3,980+ tools, 255+ categories)
- Account sign-in required before onboarding
- Stated rejection rules: logo must be under 200KB; description must be 50+ words
Prepare before opening the form
- Logo under 200KB and a description of 50+ words — both are stated rejection rules
- Tool name, URL, card image, category, pricing model, use-case and 'best for' audience tags
- Willingness to leave 3 comments and 3 likes on other listings first
Workflow
- Create an account / sign in (the button opens an auth modal; /sign-in itself is 404)
- Go to /pricing and click 'Submit Your Tool' — if the client-side navigation does nothing, open /onboard directly
- Clear the community gate (3 comments + 3 likes on other tools)
- Fill the listing form: logo, card image, 50+ word description
- Submit; third-party reports approval within ~7 days
Watch for
- Description under 50 words or logo over 200KB = reported rejection
- Free listing links sampled as rel=nofollow — don't count this submission for link equity
- $0 price is flagged limited-time; it may revert to $15
- The onboard page is fully client-rendered; a text fetch shows only 'Loading…'
What counts as live
Tool card appears on findyoursaas.com (Recently Listed / its category) with Save/Share/Visit actions
Not verified
- First-party confirmation of the comment/like gate and current pricing — pricing page renders client-side only
- Whether paid featured upgrades change link follow status
