Betabound
Betabound publishes upcoming and active betas. Easy extra pre-launch URL. Much less demand than BetaList. Use as coverage, not as the waitlist strategy.
Betabound is a long-running blog/directory of betas. Submission is usually a form. Testers who still browse it are looking for things to try; volume is modest compared with BetaList.

Submit-form directory with a large historic catalog. Traffic claims are self-reported. Use as a lasting listing, especially if you missed BetaPage.
PitchWall has taken startup submissions since the mid-2010s and absorbed BetaPage. The catalog is large. The submit flow is a form, not a 24-hour hunt. Self-reported traffic (hundreds of thousands of monthly visits) should be treated as a claim, not a forecast of what you will get.
