Founders on r/indiehackers and HN agonize over SaaS pricing — they underprice out of fear, never test alternatives, and have no external signal beyond gut feel. PricingSignal lets founders embed a lightweight pricing page A/B test widget that shows different price points to different visitors and tracks not just clicks but downstream trial-start and upgrade behavior, with a benchmark dashboard showing how their conversion rates compare to anonymized industry cohorts. The catalog has no tool specifically targeting the pricing experimentation workflow for indie SaaS.
Early-stage SaaS founders with 10-500 monthly visitors who are stuck on pricing decisions and cannot afford enterprise experimentation platforms
$19/mo for up to 3 active experiments; $49/mo for unlimited experiments and benchmark access
Hacker News: AI-generated SaaS products are flooding the market, creating intense pricing pressure and making data-driven pricing a survival skill rather than a nice-to-have for indie founders.

A JavaScript snippet that randomly shows one of two price points and tracks which cohort has a higher 'Start Trial' click rate, displayed in a simple dashboard.
AI analyzes the founder's product category, feature set, and target audience description to suggest a starting price range and which pricing model (per-seat, flat, usage) typically converts best for similar products.
Small indie SaaS products have too little traffic to reach statistical significance quickly, which could make the tool feel useless for the exact audience it targets.
Likely buyers are founders, operators, and small teams with a recurring business process. Start with Early-stage SaaS founders with 10-500 monthly visitors who are stuck on pricing decisions and cannot afford enterprise experimentation platforms and validate whether this can replace a spreadsheet, manual review, or consultant workflow.
Find the first 10 users by searching for recent complaints around "SaaS pricing" in Hacker News, developer communities, GitHub issues, and niche Slack or Discord groups. Offer a concierge version first: manually solve the workflow for a few users, then automate only the repeated steps.
This opportunity also appears in curated IdeaGenius playbooks for builders comparing adjacent markets.
