What you actually get
A listing among about two thousand AI tools, with a seven-day featured placement on the homepage and a newsletter they say reaches eleven thousand. There is also an MCP server directory, which was empty of servers and empty of trending entries when this was read.
How to submit to AI Toolhouse
- Work out which shelf you are onA custom GPT goes through /submit-gpt, which is free and asks for a name, a GPT URL, an author, a welcome message and a short description. Anything else goes through the paid route.
- Buy the listingSubmit Tool and Submit AI Tool both link to /get-featured, which is sponsorship packages. The tool listing and the MCP server listing are separate $80 Gumroad products.

Gotchas
There is no free tool submission. Every Submit Tool link on the site points at the sponsorship page, and /submit-tool itself is a 404.
The MCP server directory sounds like an opportunity and is empty: no servers, no trending entries, and the Submit Your Server link is an $80 Gumroad product.
The one genuinely free form takes a custom GPT rather than a product, and asks for a GPT URL and a welcome message, which only a GPT has.
The site carries an advertiser disclosure saying it may be compensated for links, so treat the placement as advertising rather than editorial.
