I kept hitting the same wall: every time I evaluated a new dev tool ā Supabase vs Firebase, Stripe vs Paddle, Cursor vs Copilot ā I'd lose hours comparing pricing pages, dodging affiliate-biased review blogs, and asking ChatGPT only to get hallucinated numbers.
So I built Staxly ā a structured catalog of 127 developer platforms across 27 categories:
š¹ BaaS, databases, auth, hosting, payments, AI APIs
š¹ CI/CD, commerce, docs, design, secrets, scheduling, forms, project management, API clients
š¹ 16,000+ side-by-side comparisons (every pair in the catalog)
š¹ All data sourced from vendor docs ā not scraped from blogs, not generated by an LLM
The unique piece: a free MCP server that plugs Staxly directly into Claude Code, Cursor, Zed. You ask your AI "what's the cheapest managed Postgres with branching?" ā it answers with real pricing, not a hallucination.
Staxly is free. A few affiliate links keep the lights on; they don't change what's included or how things are compared. Full disclosure in the footer.
What platforms am I missing? Drop them below and I'll add them this week.
