Who SaaSCurate accepts

You'll be rejected if
They reserve the right to pull a listing they judge low quality and refund it, so a thin product buys a refund rather than a link.

What you actually get
A permanent card on /tools with a dofollow link: the outbound anchors there are rel="noopener" and nothing else. They say submissions are auto-approved and that a product they later remove as low quality gets a full refund. The other half of the site is founder posts, an Academy and a weekly newsletter, so the traffic is founders reading rather than launch-day browsers.

How to submit to SaaSCurate

  1. Read /promote
    One product: Submit Your Tool, $39 as a one-off for lifetime placement, listed against a $78 crossed-out price. There is no free tools listing.
  2. Or sign in and write a post instead
    "Post Your Own" goes to /posts/create behind an account, which is Google, LinkedIn, GitHub or X. That lane is free.

Gotchas

A tools-page listing is $39 and there is no free version of it. The free thing on this site is publishing a post, which is a piece of writing you have to be willing to produce.
The posts feed is visibly a backlink channel: varicose vein doctors and KPI software sit beside the founder stories, so a post here lands in mixed company.
The $78 crossed-out price has been up long enough to be the price rather than a sale, so do not treat the 50% as a deadline.
Auto-approved means live at once and judged later: they say they remove low quality products and refund them.
