What you actually get
A product page with an unqualified dofollow link to your domain, live inside about two days. The catalogue is small, around 94 tools, and every slot in the Featured row is another directory from the same network, so this is link equity from a link-exchange neighbourhood rather than a source of traffic.
How to submit to ToolDisk
1
Sign in with Google first
The form renders signed out and then bounces to the login page part way through, losing what you typed. Google is the only method offered.
2
Fill step 1, Tool Information
URL, name, a 160-character tagline, a 500 to 3,000 character markdown description, logo, up to four screenshots, up to three categories, pricing model and platforms.
3
Leave the AI auto-fill alone
A button beside the URL field scrapes your site and rewrites the form. Whatever it writes becomes your listing, so diff it against your own copy.
4
Choose a lane on step 2
Three paid cards sit above the Free Listing panel: $9.90 one-time Pro, $5 a month, and a Featured tier. All of them drop the badge requirement.
5
Place the badge, then Verify and Submit
Copy the dark, light or transparent embed into your footer and only then press Verify and Submit; their crawler fetches your site on the spot and refuses without it.

Gotchas
ToolDisk runs the same codebase as Wayfindio and ToolDisk-style sister directories on other domains: identical form, identical tier names, identical badge flow. Submitting to the set gets you several listings from one operator and one badge each in your footer.
The badge check is the last action in the flow. You fill two steps, upload a logo and up to four screenshots and pick a badge before anything checks your site, and the refusal reads "A dofollow backlink to our site was not found on your website."
The form renders and accepts typing while signed out, then redirects to the login page part way through and loses the lot. Sign in before you fill anything.
Let your agent submit to ToolDisk
