Visit

The directory formerly known as Betapage, where a free listing means a nofollow redirect and a wait of more than thirty days.

What you actually get
A listing page and one day of homepage visibility, once a human gets to it more than a month later. The link you get is nofollow and routed through their own /out/ redirect, so treat the free tier as a listing rather than a backlink.

How to submit to PitchWall

1
Sign in, then finish the profile
Google, GitHub, Microsoft and Discord are offered. A public profile with username, display name and a bio is mandatory before /submit will open.
2
Pick the free plan and read the ticks
Three cards. In the Free column the do-follow backlink, the newsletter mention and the tweet are all crossed out; the only ticks are one day of homepage visibility and the 30-day wait.
3
Paste the URL and let their AI write it
One field. Their AI scrapes your site and fills name, summary, details and tags for you, flagged with an "AI-generated content" banner.
4
Replace the AI copy with your own
Summary caps at 160 characters and details at 3,000. Overwrite both; what it generates is confident and specific enough to look deliberate.
5
Add media on the edit page and submit
Next creates a draft at /product/<slug>/edit, which is where the logo and gallery images go. Submit for Review then lands on a status page.

Gotchas

The free tier does not give the do-follow backlink the page advertises. In the Free column that line is a red cross, along with the newsletter and the tweet; a live free listing links out as /out/<domain> with rel="noopener nofollow", while a paid listing links straight to the domain with no nofollow.
Their AI writes your listing before you see the form, and it writes specifics. Ours opened "Discover 163 startup directories", a live count scraped off the site that would have been wrong within a week. Overwrite every generated field rather than skimming it.
The profile bio is capped at 100 characters and says so only after you press save, and the whole profile has to exist before /submit will open at all.
