How Does SubmitSaaS's Directory Submission Process Work?

SubmitSaaS runs a done-for-you directory submission service: you pick a package, pay, and complete an onboarding form with your SaaS details. SubmitSaaS then reviews your information, fills any gaps, creates a dedicated email address, builds profiles, and submits your product to 140+ directories, delivering the work within 48 hours and sending you a report of every directory afterward. It suits SaaS founders who want directory listings and backlinks without spending the 20+ hours the site says manual submission would take.

The Four Steps

Step 1: Choose a package and pay

You select a package and complete payment, after which you are redirected straight to the onboarding form where you describe your SaaS. The site's pricing links show three package options at $60, $100, and $140. The page does not break down what differs between them, so check the pricing page before choosing.

Step 2: Review

SubmitSaaS reviews the information you submitted and fills in any gaps to produce a complete profile. This means your input doesn't need to be polished — missing descriptions or details are handled on their side.

Step 3: Submissions

SubmitSaaS creates a dedicated email address (described as a way to keep your own inbox clean), builds profiles, and submits your SaaS to the directories. The stated delivery window is 48 hours.

Step 4: Report

You receive a detailed report covering every directory where your SaaS was submitted.

What You Get

The service covers 140+ directories, which the site groups into categories including AI Directory, Community, General Directory, International, Launchpad, Media, Others, Software Directory, and Startup Directory. Each listing is tagged by domain rating (DR), link type (dofollow or nofollow), and pricing model.

A sample of the directory list from the site:

The list is paginated (9 pages in total), and the site notes a last update of Oct 12, 2026. Many listed directories are free to submit to directly, while some are conditional — worth knowing if you're weighing the service against doing it yourself.

What You Need to Provide

The process depends on your onboarding form submission: your SaaS details must be complete enough for SubmitSaaS to build profiles across platforms. The site references an example form you can view before starting, which is the best way to see exactly what information is expected.

When This Fits — and When It Doesn't

Choose SubmitSaaS if you want consistent listings across many directories without managing each submission, and you value the time savings over submitting to free directories yourself.

Consider doing it manually if you only want a handful of high-DR directories (several in the sample list are free and dofollow), or you want direct control over each listing's wording.

Either way, the report in Step 4 is the checkpoint to verify what was actually submitted — review it against the directory list to confirm coverage.
