How to submit to Wellfound

  1. Open the Wellfound submission page

    This is the page makers use to add a product.

  2. Create an account

    Wellfound asks you to sign up before you can submit.

  3. 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.

  4. Fill in the form carefully

    Pick the most specific category the form offers and write the description for the people who browse Wellfound (Startup job seekers, founders and early-stage investors), not for search engines.

  5. Check your listing

    Listings go live without review. Open yours, check the details and check the link points to the right page.

Tips for Wellfound

  • Create the company profile first; it is shown on every job you post and is the main thing candidates read.
  • Posting at least one role keeps the profile active in search and candidate email alerts.
  • Paid Job Ads are optional; start with free posts and only promote roles that are hard to fill.

From Wellfound’s own guidelines and pages, in our words.

What to prepare

The basics every directory asks for, plus what matters most for startup 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
  • Your stage (idea, beta, launched) and the year you started
  • Founder names and a short founder story (2–3 sentences)
  • Funding status, only if you share it publicly
  • A launch or beta date if you are not live yet

Is Wellfound worth it?

We couldn’t verify the link

We didn’t find a live listing we could inspect, so we don’t know whether Wellfound links are followed. Judge it on audience and effort, and check your own listing’s link once it’s live.

  • Domain Rating by Ahrefs: 87 (very strong). That's the strength of links to the whole site, not a promise about what your listing passes on.
  • Tranco rank #16,332: an established site, inside the top 100,000.
  • Listings are published without human review.
  • There’s a free option. Start free and only pay for upgrades if the traffic justifies it.

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.
