Frequently Asked Questions

How the feed is assembled, how listings are reviewed, and what happens to the data you send us.

How does the Live Radar feed work?
The radar pulls headlines directly in your browser from the public RSS feeds of major technology publications, vendor engineering blogs, and developer communities. Requests run in parallel and results are cached for 15 minutes. Nothing is stored on our servers, and if a source is slow or unavailable it is skipped rather than blocking the rest of the feed.
How do I submit my SaaS product?
Use the Submit Tool form. You provide the product name, website, category, pricing model, a short description, and a contact email. Each submission is checked against our Listing Policy right after it is sent: products that clearly meet it go live within a minute, a clear refusal is explained to you at once, and if your website lacks something the policy requires, such as contact details, we tell you what to add and check again when you ask. Anything else waits for a person, and you can ask for a person to review any automatic decision.
How long does a submission review take?
Most submissions are reviewed within three to five working days. We contact you at the email address you supplied if we need clarification, and again once a decision is made.
Does it cost anything to be listed?
Listing is free. We accept or refuse a product on our published criteria only; payment never changes that decision. Paid options buy faster review, a dated fact check, and placements that are always labelled Sponsored. Our articles, editors' picks and the order of the main list are never for sale. See the Listing Policy and plans. Changed on 15 October 2026. Until then this answer said we did not accept payment for inclusion or ranking. Paid options went on sale on 28 October 2026; free listings stay free, and nothing listed before that date becomes paid.
What do you do with the email address I submit?
It is used solely to contact you about your listing. It is stored in a private review queue that is not publicly accessible, is never published on the site, and is never sold or shared with third parties. Email us via the contact form to have your submission and contact details deleted.
How are the editors' picks chosen?
The editors' picks on the homepage are chosen by our editors for practical utility, a clear pricing model and a developer API. They are never sponsored and never for sale. The list is curated by hand and revised as the landscape shifts, so entries change over time.
Can I request a correction or removal?
Yes. Use the contact form with the tool name and what needs changing. Corrections to factual errors are prioritised.
