Worth the cost and saves time versus manual submission
From 2 comments
This is totally worth the cost. I started manually trying to post to all those sites and it's just not worth it for me. Too time consuming. 50$ is pretty cheap. Great job

Objections
Value of listings on low-tier directories is doubtful
From 2 comments
This reminds me of the "directory submission" services SEOs used years ago. Personally I doubt it's worth submitting to more than a few, Crunchbase, Angellist etc. In any event,…
jwblackwell on HNIf your startup is focussing on startups then maybe this could be of use. But I can't see the general appeal. Besides adding a list of what sites you syndicate to, maybe…

Major directories like Crunchbase and Angel.co are missing

I'm somewhat surprised that Crunchbase is not on here...

Save partially completed forms

Show directory traffic or relevance stats
From 2 comments
Is this basically a linkbuilding tool for SEO purposes? Do you have any stats on typical traffic your customers receive through submission to these sites?
datasmash on HNLooks interesting! It would be useful to have some sense of the relative importance of the sites on your list. Maybe Alexa ranks, as a start? Or data from e.g. compete.com

Questions
Are accounts created and credentials passed along?
From 1 comment
Do these lists create accounts, and do you pass those credentials along?

Does the promo code expire?
From 1 comment
Hey, great service. Will that promo code be expiring, and if so, when? I'm working on something right now and I would like to use this service, but I'm not quite ready yet.
