Wait for review

Tips for Tool Finder

From Tool Finder’s own guidelines and pages, in our words.
What to prepare
The basics every directory asks for, plus what matters most for productivity app directories.
- Product name and a one-line tagline (about 60 characters)
- A short description (1–2 sentences) and a longer one (a short paragraph)
- Square logo, at least 256×256 px, PNG or SVG
- 2–3 screenshots at a consistent size
- The exact page you want the link to point to
- Pricing model (free, freemium or paid) and a contact email
- Every platform you support (web, macOS, Windows, iOS, Android, browser extension)
- App Store and Google Play links if you have them
- Integrations with calendars, email or other tools
- Pricing and whether there is a free tier
Is Tool Finder worth it?
Depends on the listing
Tool Finder uses followed links on some listings and not others. Read the evidence above and check which kind your listing gets before you pay for anything.
- Domain Rating by Ahrefs: 60 (strong). That's the strength of links to the whole site, not a promise about what your listing passes on.
- Tranco rank #1,266,089: a small site, outside the top 1 million.
- A person reviews submissions, so expect a wait and a real quality bar.
- Listing costs money. Pay for the audience, not the link: Google’s spam policies treat buying links that pass ranking value as a link scheme.
This verdict is worked out from the facts above with fixed rules (link type, review, price, Domain Rating by Ahrefs, Tranco rank), not paid for. The directory has no say in it.
