How to submit to Toolfound, step by step
Launching is free. Submit your product URL, email, and logo; after verification you get a permanent listing with a dofollow link and a queue date.
Submit your product
Enter your product URL, email, and logo on the submit page. You can also add your X handle, requested launch date, and pricing.
Verify ownership
Verify your email. An address on your product's domain is enough; with a personal email, also add a meta tag or DNS TXT record to confirm the website.
Pick your launch date
Choose a launch date from available days. A few launches go live each day, one or two featured.
Go live and get votes
Your listing appears on the launch board. Community members vote, and the daily winner is shared from @toolfoundcom.

Toolfound FAQ
How much does it cost to launch on Toolfound?
Launching is free. Optional paid earlier-date reservations, including Toolfound Plus, have limited capacity and are available only when a date is available.
Do I have to add a badge to my site?
No. Badges are optional and earned, and nothing depends on them: not indexing, not ranking, not the dofollow link on your listing.
Why do I have to verify ownership?
Because a launch board is only useful if the person launching actually runs the product. A verified email address on your product's domain is sufficient. With a personal email, verify the mailbox and prove website control with either a meta tag or DNS TXT record.
When exactly will my product launch?
The free launch date shown after you submit is an estimate. Ownership verification confirms your reservation; simply seeing a date does not hold it. A few launches per day, no hidden reordering.
What if my product is already listed and I didn’t submit it?
Some listings are compiled from public information and labelled unclaimed. Every one of them carries a claim link and a removal link. Claim it to edit it, or ask us to remove it and we will, within 48 hours.
