Launch Llama Tools
tools.launchllama.coLaunch Llama Tools is a launch platform for all kinds of startups, including AI tools, design tools, developer tools, productivity apps, and SaaS. We went through its submission pages in October 2026: what it costs, the link you get, who gets in and how to submit.
How much does Launch Llama Tools cost?
Listing on Launch Llama Tools is free, as long as you link back to them from your site, with paid options from $39.
The free listing costs $0 and requires a Launch Llama badge on the submitter's site, five community upvotes (the same tool can be upvoted up to three times), and one star rating plus written feedback. The FAQ says both review lines must be at least 20 characters. The badge checker fetches the site's HTML; free listings are reviewed in about four weeks. A free listing link becomes dofollow when the badge is verified, the listing reaches 50 upvotes, or it finishes in the weekly top five. A badge-granted dofollow link can revert to nofollow after two later checks fail to find the badge; checks recur about every 14 days. The weekly top-five backlink grant is permanent, and the weekly #1 also gets a newsletter feature. Strong free listings may receive an editorial newsletter feature, not guaranteed.

Does Launch Llama Tools give a dofollow backlink?
Launch Llama Tools links to your site with a dofollow link, the kind Google may count toward your site's authority.
Its Ahrefs Domain Rating is 74. Part of that comes from sites that link back to it in exchange for a listing, so it likely overstates what its link is worth to you (why).
Who gets into Launch Llama Tools, and how fast?

How many people see your product depends on votes.
Free listings are reviewed and published in about four weeks. Featured and Instant Launch are described as going live immediately after payment. Separate directory-submission packages typically take 5–14 business days; that is not the Launch Llama listing review time.
