What you actually get
A permanent listing page you publish yourself, with genuinely dofollow links (three of them on the basic plan) and no backlink obligation in return. The audience is developers shopping for a starter kit, so the traffic is narrow and the intent is high.
How to submit to BoilerplateHunt
1
Sign in
/submit bounces to a login with Google and GitHub buttons beside the email form. Either OAuth route creates the account.

Link, name, categories, tags, GitHub URL, description, a markdown introduction, a 1:1 icon and a 16:9 image, both PNG or JPEG under 1MB. An AI Autofill button offers to write it from your URL.

Pay
Step two of three is checkout. $19.90 basic, $29.90 pro, $39.90 a week for sponsorship. There is no free tier anywhere in the flow.

Publish when you like
Step three is yours to trigger: there is no review queue and no launch date, and their pricing card says the listing goes up right now.

Gotchas
Boilerplates only. The category tree is entirely frameworks and starter kits, so a SaaS product with no repository to sell has nothing to file.
No free lane at all: payment is step two of three, and nothing publishes before it.
The upside is honest for once: permanent listing, no backlink required, and the outbound links on live listings really are dofollow.
