Submit your tool to Gust

Gust is a startup platform for founders, investors and accelerators. A maker creates a Gust Company Profile with pitch, stage and website, which is used to apply to accelerators and angel groups and gets a public page at gust.com/companies/name.

Is Gust worth it?

Worth it if you are fundraising or applying to accelerators, since many programs and angel groups take applications through Gust. As a backlink source it is decent: two public company profiles checked had a plain website link with no rel attribute. It brings little product traffic, because the people browsing are investors and program managers, not buyers. Fill in the profile fully and keep it current so it reads well when shared with investors.

Who should submit to Gust?

Suits startup founders, including SaaS and software makers, who want investor or accelerator exposure and a structured company profile. The site says it has a community of over 800,000 founders and links to over 300 accelerators and more than 750 angel groups. It does not suit bootstrapped makers looking for users or reviews, or anyone outside a startup and fundraising context.

  • Optional pitch deck, executive summary and financials
