Use tool ↗About SubmitMyStartup
SubmitMyStartup is a tool for founders who need to know where to submit their startup. Add its MCP server to Claude or ChatGPT and ask where to launch your startup, use the planner for a shortlist, or read the JSON API. Behind them is a free list of startup directories, launch directories, SaaS directories and Product Hunt alternatives, with real submission results: whether each is really free, the catch, the fees and the wait. Read-only, no sign-in, and free to use.

Pros & cons of SubmitMyStartup
SubmitMyStartup answers the question every founder hits after launch — where to list the product — with a list of more than 700 directories, launch sites and communities that its author has mostly tried by submitting this very site, writing down what the free path really needed, what it cost and how long it took. The same data is reachable as a keyless MCP server for Claude and ChatGPT, a JSON API and a planner. It is free and open source, and it is one person's project started in September 2026, so its freshness is that person's pace.
Pros
- Records what actually happened on submission — whether a free listing is really free, what the catch is (a badge, an account, an email on your own domain), the fee and the wait — with the date of each attempt
- Remote MCP server with no sign-in or key, usable from Claude, ChatGPT developer mode, Claude Code, Cursor and other Streamable HTTP clients
- JSON API with structured facts per entry — cost, requirements, accepted products and regions — open to any origin and MIT-licensed
- A fact that is not on record comes back as unknown rather than guessed, and every fact names where it came from
Cons
- It plans submissions but does not make them — every listing is still filled in by hand
- One person maintains it, so coverage and re-checks depend on a single maintainer
Best for
- Founders planning a launch who want a shortlist of directories that fit their product, budget and region
- Builders who want directory data inside Claude or ChatGPT, or in their own code through the JSON API
Not for
- Founders who want the submissions done for them — a paid submission service such as ListingBott does that
- Anyone looking for guaranteed traffic or ranking from listings — the site promises neither
Watch out: Directories change their rules, prices and queues without notice, and the results describe what happened to this site on a given date; check a directory's own page before paying for a listing.
