Conditional free route ai-directory
Researched from public pages — no submission was run · sources read 2026-09-26. Rules change — recheck the platform's own pages before submitting.
What the free route requires
- Free plan exists but carries up to a 90-day waiting period, standard search placement, max 3 tags, and no social promotion; paid tiers ($49.99/$99.99) jump to ≤7-day or immediate review
Requirements
- AI tools only — directory of AI apps across ~10 categories (chatbots, image, video, audio, code, productivity, agents, SEO/marketing, data, other)
- Form fields: Tool Name, Website URL, Short Description, Category, Primary Use Case, Listing Plan, Tool Pricing Model, Contact Email, Logo (200x200px min, PNG/JPG, ≤2MB)
- 'Manually Reviewed / Quality-First / No Spam Tools' — low-quality submissions are rejected
- No account wall visible — the form is self-serve with email notification
Prepare before opening the form
- Logo file at least 200×200px, PNG or JPG, under 2MB
- Tool name, canonical URL, short description (concise value prop)
- Category + primary use case picks, and the tool's pricing model
- Contact email for listing notifications
- Decide tier: Free ($0, ≤90d), Premium ($49.99, ≤7d), Priority ($99.99, immediate)
Workflow
- Open https://thatsmy.ai/submit-tool
- Fill Basic Information (name, URL, short description), Classification (category, use case), Visibility & Pricing (plan + tool pricing model), Contact Email, upload logo
- Submit Your Tool — notification goes to the contact email when reviewed
- Free listings wait up to 90 days; Priority gets immediate approval with dedicated support
Watch for
- The free tier's 90-day queue is the real cost — plan accordingly
- Claims of '1M+ monthly impressions / 100K+ active users' are unverified marketing
- Premium/Priority are one-time payments per the plan table (verify at checkout)
- Promoted listings are acknowledged in the FAQ — paid placement influences visibility, though marked as promotional
- Homepage marketing claims 'we find, test, review' daily — but FAQ says they don't guarantee performance
What counts as live
The tool appears on a thatsmy.ai listing page under its category/use-case after manual review
Not verified
- Whether the free-tier backlink is dofollow (advertised as 'permanent SEO backlink')
- Actual free-queue wait vs the 90-day maximum
- Traffic/audience claims
