What is doesitscale.dev? doesitscale.dev simplifies comparing pricing and scalability of popular authentication and email services (more services coming soon) for developers and businesses. Make informed decisions and build applications that scale seamlessly.

Hey Product Hunters! 👋 I'm thrilled to introduce you to the beta version of doesitscale.dev! 🚀 As developers, we understand the importance of selecting the right technologies to build scalable applications. However, comparing pricing, features, and performance across various providers can be a daunting task. That's why I've been working on doesitscale.dev - to simplify the process of evaluating and comparing popular tech solutions. In this early beta version (v0.1), I'm primarily focusing on comparing the pricing of email and authentication providers, giving you clear insights to help you make informed decisions. But later on, I plan to expand doesitscale.dev to cover other essential services, such as: - Cloud services like AWS, Cloudflare, Vercel, Render, Google Cloud, Fly.io, etc. - Database providers just to name a few Neon, Turso, Planetscale, MongoDB, Supabase, Firestore, - Payment gateways , Stripe, Paypal, Square - And more to come! To ensure that doesitscale.dev remains up-to-date and accurate, I've made the algorithms for all the pricing calculations open-source for anyone to edit. This means that users can create pull requests and update these algorithms whenever a service changes their pricing. By taking a crowdsourcing approach, we can collectively maintain the platform and keep it as a reliable resource for the developer community. As I continue to develop doesitscale.dev, I want to ensure that we're providing the most valuable insights for developers and business owners like you. That's where I need your help! I'd love to hear your thoughts on the following: 1. What features would you like to see on doesitscale.dev to help you make informed decisions when evaluating tech solutions? Some ideas I've thought of : - A way for users to rate services based on developer experience, pricing features, and can see how the overall developer community views and service and to visualize those tradeoffs. Maybe a review system could be helpful? - Web crawlers on pricing pages of the services to ensure pricing is accurate and up to date - Historical pricing data and notifications for upcoming pricing changes (so you're always in the loop) - Some kind of easy to use pricing calculator to easier compare the services 2. Is there any specific providers or services you would like to see on the platform? That's all! Your feedback will directly shape the future of doesitscale.dev and help us create a platform that addresses the real needs and pain points of developers. So please, take a look at this early beta version, and let me know what you think! Your input is incredibly valuable as we work to build a tool that simplifies tech decision-making for all of us. Thanks for being part of this journey! 🙌 Happy building! 🛠️

Hi @porters, very nice UI for your charts! Love the idea. There are so many product niches where this tool would be useful. Two niches are really few at the moment, but I hope you'll fill them soon!

Oh wow, I love this. It'd be great to have a way for users to suggest platforms/services from within the site itself. That'd be gold! e.g., I'd have loved to suggest adding Postmark to the email provider(s) comparison. Congrats on the launch! 🎉

I just noticed it's Open-source as well. So I assume contributions are welcome? Nice!!

@ohansemmanuel Thanks, you for the suggestion! I'll definitely look into adding a feature for suggesting platforms and services! Postmark is a great suggestion! I'll work on getting it added to the email provider comparison!

@ohansemmanuel Yes, anyone can contribute! I hope that the open-source nature of the project builds trust and allows people to fix any issues they come across. I also plan to add a contribution guide in the future for people who want to add new providers as well.

Definitely hit the upvote on this one because I'm all for demystifying the tech jungle Still wondering, though, how often is their info updated? In the tech world, yesterday's best deal can be today's old news. Gotta keep things fresh. If this site really helps us skip the headache of blind comparisons, that's a major win. 🛠️🚀
