Hey Product Hunt👋! We’re so excited to announce our new discounted pricing for startups, tailored to fit your needs. We know that as a startup, you’re juggling a lot of priorities: building your product, acquiring customers, etc. One thing that shouldn’t be on your list is building and maintaining product integrations. Merge takes that burden off you and your team. Merge is one API to add hundreds of integrations to your product. Instead of building and maintaining each integration, your developers integrate once to Merge’s Unified API to add an entire category of integrations to your product in just weeks. Merge currently offers over 200 HRIS, accounting, ticketing, CRM, ATS, file storage, and marketing automation integrations. Merge handles the full integrations lifecycle — from an easy initial build taking just weeks, to providing integration observability tools ensuring customer delight, and fully owning the maintenance of integrations. Hundreds of startups like Causal, Assembly, and Telescope trust Merge to power their product integrations at scale, enabling them to accelerate their time-to-market, cut engineering expenses, and acquire more customers. Learn more about Merge and our discounted plans by talking to one of our integration experts. Or watch a product demo from our co-founder! Thanks and let us know what you think! Irene

What's the startup price?

@jesseoue Hi Jesse - you can get started on Merge completely for free. In terms of the "startup price" - it's really dependent on your use case - what data fields you need synced and how often. You can talk to one of our integration experts to learn more and get tailored pricing based off your needs!

I simply love the concept. Integrations are a pain in the a** for most SaaS businesses. They don't create any product differentiation and suck up a lot of resources in building and maintaining them. Testing a bunch of products, I think the biggest challenge in the space is to find the right balance between abstraction and flexibility. Some tools are very powerful, supporting most of the integration capabilities, but on the other side, they are too complex and don't really cut development costs enough. Other products excel in making everything simple but at the cost of very limited capabilities. Merge, in my opinion, is on the right path. Still... I find this launch very confusing. You're basically just launching an updated pricing for startups. But not disclosing it? The website shows no pricing, just a banner announcing Startups discounts, which redirects here were there's no info on these discounts. The only visible pricing on the website is $650 for 10 linked accounts... even assuming just 1 linked account per customer, that's 65$ per customer to support integrations. Given most self-serve SaaS are priced below $100/mo, that's way too expensive unless you're an enterprise focused startup. But regardless, why launch something you're not disclosing? :)

@massimocw Thanks Massimo for the feedback! That's exactly why we started Merge is because so many SaaS companies realize building and maintaining integrations is super painful (and not a great use of your developers' time). The banner on the site is to drive people to participate in learning about the launch more on Product Hunt. The pricing you've identified is for self-serve which is a good way to start or try Merge out but the discounted pricing we're announcing today is much more tailored to your needs which can be discussed in detail once we hear about your specific use case -- such as what type of data you'll be syncing and how often! From that, our team can give a better pricing estimate and if you're a startup, provide a discount. Hope that helps!

@massimocw @irenexh This is still not transparent unfortunately. So it gives me reason to believe that the pricing will not be as effective as it sounds. It would be better to mention a percentage for people to take action on the form. Companies such as Nango are less expensive ($250 / 20 connections) so is Merge's startup pricing close to this?

@samad_from_chamoy Hi Samad, thanks for you feedback - we appreciate it and it's something for us to consider in the future! It's hard for us to give an exact percentage based off our pricing model and how specific it is to our customers' needs. We know that some of our competitors cite cheaper per linked account pricing as cheaper, but the reason is that their product typically is less robust with a smaller support team. We recommend talking to one of our integration experts to get a proper quote as we offer volume discounts.

@irenexh I don't think it's a matter of robustness. Nango has quite an active community, open-sourced, and has an open-unified API. So they have built a product along with a great ecosystem surrounding it. I looked at other competitors as well such as Apideck which is $299 a month. Finch comes out to $250 a month (5 free + 5 at $50 each) for 10 connections. For nearly all startups it simply comes down to prioritizing cost-effective tooling. Even if I were to take a hypothetical whopping 50% off of Merge's pricing, it comes out $325 per 10 accounts. Which is still more expensive than the options I listed. Merge should reassure that the pricing comes down to an effective rate on the website so people can decide quickly, rather than scheduling demos/calls.

I just visited the Merge website and it was super comprehensive. Great job and congrats on your launch! Just do you also support external integrations? I didn't see anywhere about it.
