Should I submit before launch?
Use beta and early-access directories before launch, then save launch communities for a coordinated public release.

FAQ
What assets are required?
Most startup directories need a short description, product URL, logo, screenshots, and founder contact details — collected after you pay.
How long until you start submitting?
After checkout and asset intake, we typically begin submissions within a few business days depending on package size.
Is this the same as the startups industry roundup?
No. The startups industry page helps you research startup directories. This page is the campaign path if you want us to submit on your behalf.
