Tarkle maintains two curated directories for companies that want to be discovered by people looking for them.
The Tarkle Startup Directory features newly launched AI, technology, fintech, marketplace, SaaS, and other startups.
The Tarkle Agency Directory features design subscription agencies, website development companies, full-service agencies, creative studios, and other productized service businesses.
Listings are currently free and reviewed before publication.
The Tarkle Startup Directory
The Tarkle Startup Directory
The Tarkle Startup Directory helps founders introduce newly launched companies to a wider audience.
Visitors can browse startups by category and look for products that may be relevant to their work. The directory is designed for people looking for new software, services, and technology companies, including founders, investors, enterprises, and other operators.
The directory currently focuses on newly launched startups in areas such as AI, technology, fintech, marketplaces, SaaS, and other emerging categories.
The Tarkle Agency Directory serves a different audience. It helps businesses find agencies and studios for design, website development, branding, marketing, video, and other productized services.
The directory includes categories such as:
Design subscription agencies
Website development agencies
Full-service agencies
Branding and creative studios
Video and production teams
Marketing and growth agencies
Other productized service providers
For agencies, the directory provides a public profile where potential clients can learn about the company, its services, and how to get in touch.
Startups and agencies have different audiences and different discovery needs.
A startup may want to reach founders, investors, technology buyers, and enterprise teams looking for new products.
An agency may want to reach businesses searching for design, development, branding, marketing, creative support, video production, or ongoing productized services.
Keeping the directories separate makes it easier for visitors to find relevant companies and gives each listing a more focused context.
What a listing can help with
A directory listing can help your company:
Appear in front of people actively looking for startups or agencies
Give prospective customers a clear introduction to your business
Create another public page that explains what you offer
Support your broader discovery and marketing work
Make it easier for partners, founders, investors, or clients to find you
A listing is not a guarantee of search rankings, traffic, backlinks, or leads. The value depends on the quality of the listing, the relevance of the directory audience, and whether your company matches what visitors are looking for.
Free submission and review
Submissions are currently free. Tarkle reviews listings before publication to keep the directories useful for visitors. A submission may be rejected or returned for changes if the website is incomplete, misleading, inactive, or unrelated to the directory.
We may also remove listings that become inactive, deceptive, or inconsistent with the directory’s purpose. Free submission does not guarantee publication. Approval depends on the quality and relevance of the submitted company.
Which directory should you use?
Submit to the Startup Directory if you are launching or operating a startup, SaaS product, AI company, fintech product, marketplace, technology company, or other emerging business.
Submit to the Agency Directory if you provide design, development, branding, marketing, creative, video, or other productized services to clients.
If your company fits both categories, choose the directory that best matches the audience you want to reach.
Tarkle Portal for agencies
Tarkle Portal
The Agency Directory is part of Tarkle’s broader focus on agency operations. Tarkle Portal is client portal software for productized agencies. It helps agencies onboard clients, collect project briefs, sell services, manage work orders, deliver projects, collect payments, and organize the client relationship under their own brand.
Being listed in the Agency Directory does not require using Tarkle Portal. The directory is open to agencies regardless of the software they use.
If your agency is growing and needs a more structured way to manage client work, learn more about Tarkle Portal.
Submit your company
If you are launching a startup, submit it to the Tarkle Startup Directory. If you run a design, development, branding, marketing, video, or productized service agency, submit it to the Tarkle Agency Directory.
Both directories are currently free to submit to and designed to help relevant companies become easier to discover.
