Who ProductCool accepts

You need
An account: email link, Google or GitHub
A home page an AI can read

The whole submission is generated by crawling your site, so a product behind a login or a page that renders nothing without JavaScript gives it nothing to work with.

What you actually get
A page at /product/<slug> with a name, a short description, a website description, a long markdown introduction, a logo and up to five tags, nearly all of it written by their AI from your home page. The outbound link is rel="noopener noreferrer ugc" with a ?ref=productcool parameter, so it is marked as user-generated rather than followed.

How to submit to ProductCool

  1. Sign in
    Email sign-in link, Google or GitHub. /submit redirects to /auth/signin with a callback.
  2. Paste the URL and press Start Analysis
    That is the whole first step. It runs a five-stage crawl and writes the listing for you, which takes around fifteen seconds.
  3. Read what it wrote
    Name, short description, website description, a markdown introduction, the slug and up to five tags all arrive prefilled, and the logo is pulled from Google's favicon service. There is an AI Regenerate button if it got the product wrong.
  4. Submit
    "Submission Received" and a queue, followed immediately by a pitch for their paid DirSubmit service.

Gotchas

The listing is written by their AI from your home page, so read every field before submitting: it is your product description in their words, and a wrong number or a misread feature ships with it.
The link is rel="noopener noreferrer ugc". The ugc token tells search engines this is user-generated, so treat it as marked rather than followed.
The logo defaults to Google's favicon service rather than your own file. Upload a real one if the favicon is small or wrong.
The confirmation page is also an ad for DirSubmit, the operator's paid bulk-submission product. Nothing about your listing depends on it.

Let your agent submit to ProductCool

Connect SubmitMap to your AI over MCP and this page stops being something you read and copy. Your agent asks for the ProductCool playbook and gets the brief for this exact form, with the values already taken from your submission pack instead of placeholders you fill in by hand.
