MCP server for Claude and ChatGPT - Where to Submit Your Startup

Free · Read-only · No sign-in
Add SubmitMyStartup to Claude, ChatGPT, or another AI assistant, then ask it where to submit your startup. It searches my list of 1085 places and tells you what each one costs, what the free path needs, and how long it takes, and it says when a fact isn't on record. I have tried 976 of them by submitting this site.
The skill tells your agent what to ask you, how to search the list, and how to present a shortlist, including the facts that aren't on record. One command installs it, for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and other agents that read skills:
It reads the same data as the server below, through the JSON API, so it needs nothing else. Its source is the list on GitHub, in plugin/.
This is the server's URL. It is read-only and needs no sign-in or key:
Claude’s Free plan allows one custom connector. Then ask in a chat, for example: “Find free directories that accept a non-AI B2C web app, with no budget.” or “I’m based in Australia, can’t add a badge, and don’t have a domain email. Where can I get listed within 30 days?”
In Claude Code, run:
The plugin is the skill and this MCP server together. In Claude Code, add the marketplace on GitHub, then install the plugin:
To update later, run /plugin marketplace update submitmystartup.
In Claude on the web or the desktop app, the skill is a separate upload: download the skill (ZIP), open Customize, then Skills, upload the ZIP, and turn it on. Turn the connector above on too: the skill uses it when it's on, and without it Claude has to download the JSON API's 1.5 MB file, which its code sandbox may not be allowed to fetch.
ChatGPT can use the server in developer mode, on the web, on Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise, and Education plans.
ChatGPT’s menus change often, so if a step doesn’t match, OpenAI’s developer mode guide has the current one. The server also has search and fetch tools in the shape OpenAI describes for deep research and company knowledge.
Any client that supports remote MCP servers over Streamable HTTP can use the same URL, with no authentication. Clients set up with a JSON file, such as Cursor, usually take something like this:
VS Code’s .vscode/mcp.json takes this shape instead:
Check your client’s docs for the exact keys. A description of the server for clients and directories that look for one is at https://submitmystartup.com/.well-known/mcp.json.
The server has 5 read-only tools. They read the same data as the JSON API and never fetch anything else:
Results link each place to its row on this website, and say which facts are not on record, so an assistant can tell you what to check rather than guess.
The server reads the same data as the JSON API, which also describes every field. The list is open source under the MIT License, and the list on GitHub is the source of truth. Directories change their rules, so check a site before you rely on a fact.
