What you actually get
A permanent listing in one of several hundred ODP-style categories, sitting below every paid listing on that page. Their own free card says there is no time guarantee at all, and the link is nofollow unless you take the $99.99 tier.
How to submit to 247WebDirectory
1
Pick a tier
Five cards across the top. Free is the leftmost and its radio sits last in the list further down the page.
2
Fill the form
Site title, site URL, description, contact email and one category from an ODP-style tree of several hundred, including an AI Tools branch.
3
Answer the sum
A one-line arithmetic verification, worded like "7 + 2 = ?", sits between the tier radios and the submit button.

Gotchas
The free card states in its own words that they can give no assurance of when the site will be reviewed, and free listings render below every paid one on the category page.
The dofollow is only on the $99.99 Premium tier; every free listing carries rel="nofollow noopener" and every paid one rel="sponsored".
A paid listing that is not renewed drops back to a free listing rather than being removed, so the tier is a rental and the listing is not.
Their guidelines refuse a site whose content is mainly affiliate links and any site not in English, and both are judged by an editor rather than by a form.
