How to choose

Which platforms does it need to run on?

Choose a tool that matches your working setup: web, API, browser extension, iOS, Android or self-hosted. The board labels these platform options so you can check fit before comparing plans.

An API means another app can connect to the service. If you need that connection, use the API platform label and public-API mark together.

Can you start with a free plan or trial?

Start with a free plan when you want ongoing access without a subscription; use a free trial when you want to test paid features for a limited period.

Canny, Fazier, Featurebase, FounderFlow and FounderPal list free plans. Baremetrics and Frill list 14-day trials, while Canny lists a 14-day trial alongside its free plan.

What will the first paid plan cost?

Compare the stated starting price and billing terms, since plans use different units. FounderFlow starts at $9 per month, Frill at $25 per month, and Featurebase at $29 per user per month on annual billing.

Other examples include Fazier from $39, Canny from $79 per month on annual billing, and Baremetrics from $75 per month.

Which project and seat limits fit your work?

Check projects on the free plan and seats on the cheapest paid plan before choosing. These fields show whether a plan fits your project load and team size.

A seat is one user account. Compare the seat field with your team needs, then check the paid-plan price and billing term.

Do you need a custom domain or product analytics?

Use the custom-domain and product-analytics fields to narrow the board to tools matching your site and measurement needs.

These are separate comparisons: a custom domain concerns the address people visit, while product analytics concerns measurement of product activity.
