About

An independent fit check

Should I Use It tells you whether a product is worth your money. Paste a URL — say, notion.so — and you get a straight call: worth it, skip it, or it depends, with the reasons, the gotchas, and what to use instead.

No account. No billing. No sponsored verdicts.

01 — What this is

What this is

It's a second opinion before you buy software. You paste a product or app URL, and the site writes up a fit check: who the product is for, who it's not for, and the catch nobody puts on the pricing page.

It's not a review site and it's not a sales page. Think of it as asking a blunt friend who's read all the docs.

02 — How it works

How it works

  1. 01

    You paste a URL

    You paste a URL — any public product or app page.

  2. 02

    We read the public sources

    We read the public sources — the product's own site, docs, and pricing, plus public reviews and write-ups. Every claim in the report links back to where it came from.

  3. 03

    You read the verdict

    You read the verdict — buy, don't buy, or depends, with reasons you can act on.

03 — What a report is

What a report is (and isn't)

A report is a reading of public information, not a hands-on trial. We don't invent findings: if a price, limit, or security issue isn't in the sources, it doesn't go in the report.

Reports are cached for about a month, so a check you run today might show a report generated last week. Every report shows when it was analyzed — if the product just changed its pricing, check the date before you act on the details.

04 — Who makes this

Who makes this

Should I Use It is made by Rami, an independent maker at ramisoftware.com.

No investors, no sponsors, no affiliate deals shaping the verdicts. The related sites in the footer are separate projects by the same person — not a paywall, not a network selling placement.
