Have your assets ready
Name, tagline, description, logo and screenshots. The checklist below covers what to prepare so you can fill the form in one go.
Fill in the form carefully
Pick the most specific category the form offers and write the description for the people who browse Twelve Tools (People searching for SaaS and web tools by category), not for search engines.
Decide on the link back

What to prepare
The basics every directory asks for, plus what matters most for SaaS 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
- A link to your public pricing page and your trial or free-plan terms
- A list of integrations (the names only, one per line)
- Who the product is for: team size, role or industry
- A support or contact email that someone actually reads
Is Twelve Tools worth it?
Good for your SEO foundation
Twelve Tools reviews listings by hand and the listing link we inspected was followed. That combination is what makes a directory link worth having for a new site.
- Domain Rating by Ahrefs: 82 (very strong). That's the strength of links to the whole site, not a promise about what your listing passes on.
- Tranco rank #260,162: a mid-sized site, inside the top 500,000.
- A person reviews submissions, so expect a wait and a real quality bar.
- There’s a free option. Start free and only pay for upgrades if the traffic justifies it.
- They ask for a link back to their site. One reciprocal link is common, but Google’s spam policies list excessive link exchanges as a problem, so don’t do this for every directory.
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.
