Submit to ToolRain 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, ToolRain included, from your own browser, and tracks every listing. On ToolRain specifically:
- It already knows ToolRain's submit flow from the path we recorded (toolrain.com/submit).
- ToolRain needs an account, so the agent signs up and confirms the email itself.
- It writes the listing copy for ToolRain's audience (AI tools directory) instead of pasting the same description everywhere.
- It takes the free route and skips ToolRain's paid upgrades unless you approve them.
- When ToolRain publishes the listing, it saves the URL and checks the dofollow link in your launch tracker.
