How to submit to Startup Stash
- Search Startup Stash for your product first. If it's already listed, claim or update that listing instead of submitting again.
- Open the submit page: startupstash.com/add-listing/.
- No account is needed to submit.
- The form lives on an external tool (for example a Google Form or a sign-in provider), so expect to leave the site.
- Fill in the form. When our agent walked it, it asked for your email.
- Expect a reCAPTCHA check before you can submit.
- Save the listing URL once it's public, so you can check the link later.

Submit to Startup Stash with your AI agent
AgentLaunch is a launch kit you open in Claude Code, Codex or Cursor. Your agent submits your product to 300+ hand-checked directories, Startup Stash included, from your own browser, and tracks every listing. On Startup Stash specifically:
- It already knows Startup Stash's submit flow from the path we recorded (startupstash.com/add-listing → form.typeform.com/to/[form-id]).
- Startup Stash needs no account, so it goes straight to the form.
- It writes the listing copy for Startup Stash's audience (startup database) instead of pasting the same description everywhere.
- It stops for the reCAPTCHA check, you solve it, and it carries on.
- When Startup Stash publishes the listing, it saves the URL and checks the dofollow link in your launch tracker.
