Our story

Our mission

Make software decisions faster and fairer — for the people buying tools and for the independent makers building them.

GetTried started with a simple frustration: every software list online looked the same — endless pages of tools, paid placements dressed up as reviews, and prices that were out of date the day they were published. Choosing a tool for a team took days of tabs, trials and guesswork.

So we built the place we wanted to use. A directory where makers list their own tools, where the community votes, reviews and discusses them in the open, and where every listing shows real pricing, a live health check and honest alternatives.

Today GetTried helps founders, developers, marketers and small teams compare software side by side, ask the decision engine for a shortlist in plain English, and switch away from bloated or overpriced tools with clear migration guides.

We are a small, independent team. We don't sell your data, we don't hide sponsored placements, and we read every message that comes in.

What makes us different

Verified websites

Every listed website is checked regularly, so abandoned or broken tools are easy to spot before you sign up.

Real, local pricing

Prices are shown in your currency with packages side by side, and every change is kept in a public price history.

Honest alternatives

"Switch from X" guides list migration difficulty, price differences and feature parity — not just a list of names.

Community first

Upvotes, reviews and forums come from signed-in members only, one vote per account, so rankings can't be faked.

Clearly labeled promotion

Makers can boost a tool, but boosted placements are always marked "Featured" and never change ratings or reviews.

Built for makers too

Free listings, claimable profiles, review replies, a forum for every tool and detailed traffic stats.

The people behind GetTried

Builders, moderators and community members who keep the directory honest and useful.
