FAQ
What is List Bulb?
ListBulb is a product discovery platform and AI tools directory. Submit a product URL; after review, your product goes live at /tools/[slug]. Each tool has one primary category for browsing and optional tags for filters on the homepage.
How do categories and tags work?
Categories are the main shelf — one per tool, with pages at /category/[slug]. Tags are optional (up to five) and show up as homepage filters. We dropped workflow-stage filters in favor of this.
How are listings reviewed?
Someone reads every submission before it appears in the public catalog. We care whether the product works, fits the category, and is worth listing — not whether it paid to be here.
How do I submit a product to List Bulb?
Go to /submit, paste your product URL to pull name, logo, and preview, then send it in. You land on /tools/[slug] to verify your badge while the listing is still pending.
Is submission free?
Free listing is available — badge verification and a 3-upvote weekly streak (upvote 3 other products the same week you submit) are required before submit. Optional QuickPass and Featured plans skip both and speed review. Paid plans do not guarantee approval. See /pricing for current prices.
Can I upgrade my plan after paying?
Yes. Live listings and tools pending review can upgrade from your account product page. Upgrades are separate one-time checkouts at the price shown. Featured homepage placement starts when your listing goes live on the directory, not while it is still in review.
Does List Bulb provide dofollow backlinks?
Free listings get one dofollow link after you verify our badge and the listing goes live. QuickPass includes two dofollow links when live — no badge required. Featured includes four dofollow anchors on your listing page while featured placement is active, then two after the featured window ends. Until a listing is live, outbound links use nofollow.
What does the verified badge mean?
For free listings, the badge proves you control the product domain and unlocks your dofollow backlink. It is not paid placement, does not change ranking, and is not required for QuickPass or Featured plans.
How do AI agents discover List Bulb?
Use /llms.txt for a site summary, /ai.txt for AI usage permissions, /tools and /sitemap.xml for the full catalog, /rss.xml for syndication. A short guide lives at /docs/getting-started.
Is there an API for the tool catalog?
Yes. The read-only catalog API is available under /api/v1, with an OpenAPI document at /api/v1/openapi.json and hosted MCP at /mcp. Other /api/* routes power the website and are not integration endpoints.

Structured listings and categorized AI and SaaS discovery look really handy for founders comparing tools without the usual directory noise and endless scrolling.
simple ui, easy to understand
The directory presentation is clear and the product description is easy to understand.
The page mainly shows Launch Llama navigation and a founder call-to-action, with no detailed List Bulb information visible.
Clear positioning as a hand-reviewed directory for AI tools and SaaS. The homepage and listing explain what you get quickly, and the free listing versus paid boost split is easy to understand. I reviewed the listing and site, not the paid placement.
Clear positioning as a curated directory of AI tools and SaaS products, and the structured listing format makes it easy to scan. Category and pricing filters would make browsing for the right tool faster.
List Bulb is easy to browse, and the tool listings make it simple to discover new AI and SaaS products. The layout is clean, and the product information is easy to understand.
Clear AI and SaaS directory listings. Useful when researching tools for a launch.
loved the product and the community-driven discovery
List Bulb is a well-organized curated directory. Clean UI, useful categorization, and good discovery flow for finding new AI tools.
I browsed the public directory: the homepage explains its hand-reviewed AI/SaaS listings, and the Discover page has categories and filters. I have not tested the submission flow.
Great clean directory layout, very easy to find tools and straightforward UI!
I love it and would definitely add kodwai here.
Good work, keep going
Nice to use and price
