Visit

A $0 tier whose only cost is their badge, and the paid tiers are priced as the way to avoid it rather than the way to be seen.

Their badge or a text link on your site, for the free tier

What you actually get
A permanent profile in an AI products directory after an editorial review, with the outbound link carrying no rel attribute at all. The queue on the free tier is stated as about a week on the pricing card itself, and the paid tiers exist mainly to shorten it and to drop the badge.

How to submit to AIHuntList

1
Sign in first
/submission/new redirects to a login offering Google, GitHub and an email link. Signing in is what turns the page into a form.
2
Fill the product information
Website URL, product name within 60 characters, categories, tags, a short description within 160, a cover image and a rich-text Detailed Content block. An AI Autofill button sits inside the URL field.
3
Continue to Review, which is where the prices appear
This saves a draft and shows four tiers. Free is $0, and its card is the one that names the cost: a badge or text link is required for free submissions.
4
Take the free tier and open the badge panel
The free card's button reads Verify backlink first rather than Submit. Pressing it opens a Backlink Badge Verification panel with a light or dark snippet and your reserved listing URL already in it.
5
Deploy, verify, then submit
Paste your site into Your Website URL and press Verify Backlink. Only once it answers Backlink verified does Submit Free Listing become pressable.

Gotchas

The badge is the entire price of the $0 tier, and the paid cards say so from the other side: Fastpass advertises "no reciprocal link required" and Featured makes the backlink optional.
Prices are not shown until you press Continue to Review, which is after the whole form is filled. The tiers arrive at the end, not the beginning.
Their category list is all AI-generator verticals. Searching marketing returns Marketing Plan Generator and AI Email Marketing, and a product that is not a generator has no clean home in the tree.
Submit Free Listing stays inert until the backlink check passes, so a deployed badge that has not been verified looks exactly like a broken button.
