Show HN: Stackfix – Compare B2B SaaS Features and Pricing
stackfix.comHi HN! I'm Camin, co-founder of Stackfix. We've built a B2B SaaS comparison platform to solve problems we experienced when buying software.
Evaluating SaaS tools today typically requires piecing together information from marketing pages, user reviews, and sales calls just to understand features and pricing. Existing comparison sites unfortunately don't solve this because their business models depend on incentivized reviews for vendors [1].
Our approach is different:
- We have in-house human experts who test every product using consistent, category-specific rubrics.
- For pricing, we combine vendor information, mystery shopping, and customer data to build models that reflect detailed costs, based on your usage.
We'd love feedback on two core features in particular:
- Pricing calculator: https://stackfix.com/pricing-calculator - Get estimates without talking to sales
- Side-by-side comparison: https://stackfix.com/compare - See true feature parity
We're starting with comprehensive coverage of major categories (CRM, ATS, Product Analytics etc). We're focused on depth over breadth for now. Thanks for taking a look :)

Hi Camin,
The platform looks quite cool. I was looking at analytics, it works well. Adding the events is a bit strange (e.g. the default is 1 Event, and writing 1000000 is strange, maybe also add some pre-made ranges, like 3-5M events).
ALso, how to add new tools? Do you also support self-hosted tools? Would love to add my https://uxwizz.com to the product analytics category.
Thanks so much for trying it out, and for your feedback. You're right, that is a bit wonky - we should change the UX for inputs when the maximum of the range is massive, will get on that asap.
UXWizz looks great! Unfortunately we don't yet list self-hosted tools simply because our audience generally does not have the technical expertise to set these up. If that changes in the future (and I could see that happening) we'll definitely look into evaluating your platform for inclusion.
Thanks a lot for the feedback!
My goal is to make self-hosting as easy (or easier) than registering for a service. So my desired target audience includes non-technical people. Currently, yes, you need a bit of expertise to set it up, but it can still be done by non-technical people (e.g. using the DigitalOcean 1-Click app https://www.uxwizz.com/trial ).
I know I'm fighting an uphill battle, trying to go against the SaaS trend, but I do think self-hosting is the future.
