## Is BetaList worth it?

One of the better paid options for an early-stage software product that wants waitlist signups and beta testers, because the editorial filter keeps quality up and the newsletter reaches a real audience. Only pay if the product meets the criteria: own domain, custom landing page, clear signup path, little prior exposure. Submit once pre-launch and once at launch, a few weeks apart. Pick Standard or Premium if newsletter placement matters, since Lite only includes it for popular startups.

## Who should submit to BetaList?

Suits founders of new web apps, mobile apps, AI and developer tools who want early users and feedback. It does not suit established or widely covered products, agencies, consultancies, online stores, courses, blogs, newsletters, or anyone on a free hosting subdomain or a landing page builder such as Carrd.

## What you need before you submit

- A technology startup new to the BetaList audience
