Hey Product Hunt 👋 I'm Justin, the solo maker of in plain sight.
I kept noticing the same thing: for almost every big SaaS tool there's a smaller one that does the main job for a fraction of the price. They're out there in plain sight, but they're hard to find and harder to compare.
So I built a place where you search the tool you already pay for and see its cheaper twins, side by side:
Real prices, with a link to each pricing page
What you keep and what you give up, so there are no surprises
How hard switching is, from easy to big move
Head-to-head pages like Clerk vs Auth0
Founders: if you built the cheaper one, listing is free. You get your own page, a vs page for every tool you undercut, and a launch day on the homepage.
I'd love to know: what's the most overpriced tool you pay for? I'll go find its twin.
