Is Fountn worth it?
Worth one minute if your product is useful to designers, such as a Figma plugin, icon set, mockup tool or AI design tool. Resource pages link out with rel noopener and no nofollow, and the form takes four fields with no account. There is no status page or stated review time, so submit once and move on. General SaaS outside design will not fit.
Who should submit to Fountn?
Suits makers of design tools, UI kits, Figma and Framer resources, fonts and AI tools for creative work. Visitors are designers browsing for resources. It does not suit general business software, developer tools without a design angle, or anyone who needs confirmation or a timeline.
