Reach people who are already deciding to leave a SaaS tool. One labeled, sponsored plate per page, from $15 a month while we are new; it never changes a license stamp.
Status: waitlist only. Paid slots are not on sale yet and there is no checkout on this site. Prices below are the planned prices; you pay nothing until we confirm a slot with you by email and send a link to a third-party hosted payment page. We never see or store card numbers.
Prices and billing intervals
| Product | Price | Billing interval | What you get |
|---|---|---|---|
| Page sponsorship | $19 per page (founder $15) | Monthly, auto-renews | A SPONSORED plate on one "replace X" or app page. It sits beside the specimens and never changes a stamp or a difficulty score. |
| Category exclusive | $59 | Monthly, auto-renews | The only sponsored plate across one category (for example documents, chat, analytics). |
| Click pack | $10 for 25 clicks ($0.40 per click) | One-time, expires 90 days after payment | On hold until the site has traffic evidence; join the waitlist to be told when it opens. |
| Competitor watch | $9 | Monthly, auto-renews | Email when a listed alternative changes license or a SaaS price we track changes. Free with a page sponsorship. |
Prices are in USD, before any tax or payment-processor charges that the checkout page may show. Founder prices are locked for as long as the subscription is not cancelled. Open-source projects and foundations list for free and can ask for a free sponsored plate once a month; paid slots are for companies selling hosting or support.
Free first
- Free listing: a project with a public repository is listed for free. Its license stamp comes from its LICENSE file, not from payment. Corrections are free and handled within 7 days.
- First 20 vendors: 30 days of one sponsored placement free, no card needed. It ends by itself and does not renew.
How clicks are counted
- A valid click is a human visitor following a link in a sponsored placement to your site.
- Outbound links go through a counter on this site (/out/ path) before redirecting to you. Same visitor, same placement: counted once per 24 hours. The visitor id is a hash of IP address and user agent with a salt that changes daily; it is not stored as a cookie.
- Known bots, link previewers and our own team are not counted. Clicks you generate yourself should not be counted either: tell us your IP range if you want it excluded.
- A public /stats/ page will show total visits and outbound clicks per placement, so you can check what you bought. It goes live together with the counter, before the first paid slot.
How clicks are delivered
- Subscriptions (monthly slots) show your placement for the whole billing month. Clicks are what the page earns; they are not guaranteed.
- Click packs (click pack: $10 for 25 clicks) are delivered by showing your sponsored card on the relevant pages until the pack is used up, in rotation with other sponsors. We stop showing it when the count reaches the pack size. Unused clicks expire 90 days after payment.
- If a placement receives fewer than 24 valid clicks valid clicks in its first paid month, that is a click shortfall: see refunds below.
How sponsored placements are labeled
SPONSORED Example: a paid placement always carries this label, a dashed outline, and sits in its own block, never inside the ranked list.
- Every paid link has rel="sponsored nofollow". We do not sell dofollow links.
- On this site a sponsored placement is a dashed-outline plate marked SPONSORED, outside the specimen grid. It cannot carry or change a license stamp.
- Paid placements never change ranking, sort order, prices, scores or calculator results. We do not host or sell support for any project listed here, and we sell no links that pass ranking credit.
- At most 1 sponsored placements per page.
Refunds, renewal and cancellation (summary)
- Click shortfall: a click shortfall is refunded promptly after we confirm it, or credited as the next month free, as you prefer.
- Auto-renewal: monthly subscriptions renew automatically every month at the price shown at purchase until you cancel.
- Cancel any time: email contact@clioos.com before the renewal date. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid month; you keep the placement until then, and you are not charged again.
- Full terms: Refund & cancellation policy and Terms of Service.
