What you actually get
A listing in a curated AI tools collection run by one maker around a newsletter, reviewed by staff before publication. A sampled tool listing linked out rel="nofollow"; the dofollow links on the homepage go to the maker's own other properties, so the value here is the audience rather than the link.
How to submit to SaaS AI Tools
1
Make the account, which is also a newsletter signup
/submit/ redirects to /join/. It wants a name, an email and a password, and the agreement box signs you up to their SaaS Gems newsletter as a condition of being able to submit.
2
Read the guidelines, which only appear once you are in
The submit page carries a Submission Guidelines panel that is invisible from outside the login. It is where the rules against directories, newsletters and automated submissions live.
3
Search their site for your tool first
Their first guideline asks you to check it is not already listed, and duplicates are a stated reason for non-approval.
4
Fill the listing details
Product name, one category from about thirty, a tagline, an overview, your website URL, an X username and an image at 1366x768. All of those are marked required.
5
Wait for staff review
Their own line is that a staff team reviews the listing before it is published and approved.

Gotchas
Their guidelines refuse directories and newsletters by name, and they refuse anything submitted by an automated method. Neither rule is visible until you have made an account, so the disqualifying read costs you the signup first.
The account is a newsletter subscription. The signup form's agreement box enrols you in SaaS Gems, and their own copy lists being able to submit as a member benefit rather than a public feature.
An X username is a required field on the listing form, so a product with no X account cannot complete the submission as written.
The image spec is an exact 1366x768 rather than a square or a logo, which is a size nothing else in a normal press kit produces.
