Conditional free route 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 tier: 7-9 week review queue (~889 tools ahead), nofollow link — dofollow only if you embed their badge
- $12 Starter skips the queue (24h) with a permanent dofollow link — effectively the practical route
- A claim link is emailed post-submit; you must sign in with the SAME email to manage the listing
Requirements
- Name (≤60 chars), slug (≤64), website URL
- Tagline ≤100 chars, short description ≤160, full description ≤1000
- Category + pricing model (Free/Freemium/Paid/Trial)
- Logo: SVG/PNG preferred, max 512×512px, auto-compressed over 200KB
- 1-3 screenshots REQUIRED: 16:9 aspect, max 1600px width; first image becomes the featured image
- Optional: YouTube demo URL, social links, affiliate-program checkbox (appears on their SaaS affiliate pages)
Prepare before opening the form
- Tight copy: ≤60-char name, ≤100-char tagline, ≤160-char short desc, ≤1000-char description
- Square-ish logo ≤512×512px
- 1-3 sixteen-nine screenshots at ≤1600px width
- The email you'll use to sign in — the claim link binds to it
- Decide plan: free (7-9wk, nofollow) vs $12 (24h, dofollow) vs $129/$249 featured tiers
Workflow
- Open https://www.verifiedtools.info/submit
- Fill all required fields and upload logo + screenshots
- Select a plan (Free/Starter/Pro/Premium)
- Submit; claim link goes to the email given — sign in with that email to manage
- Free: wait ~7-9 weeks; paid: reviewed within 24h
Watch for
- Free queue is honest but long (889 tools deep as of Sept 2026)
- Free link is nofollow — dofollow requires badge embed or any paid plan
- The claim email must match your sign-in email or 'you won't see your submission'
- $129/$249 tiers add homepage featuring, full review with images, X posts, and a 5-min YouTube review (Premium)
