đź’ˇ SaaS Idea: SaaS Footprint Finder (Reverse BuiltWith)

Prospecting intelligence: search and monitor all websites that use a given SaaS (script, SDK, tag). Crawl signatures + JS hash detection, filters (geo, tech stack, traffic bands), exports, and alerts. Built for SDRs, partnerships, and competitive intel.

Platform: web

Why it's a good idea?

1. Problem & Existing Demand

We looked for intent-driven queries that imply someone wants a list of sites using a given SaaS/technology.

Seed query Monthly volume KD (difficulty)
builtwith 27 100 22
wappalyzer 8 100 23

Take-away:

  • Head keywords around tech-lookup tools easily clear the “>500 search” rule (BuiltWith, Wappalyzer). Long-tails for individual SaaS («companies using X», «list of X customers») are lower per term (<500) but exist for thousands of SaaS; aggregate demand is large.

  • Similar threads on r/sales, r/sdr, IndieHackers, HN ask „How can I get a list of webs...
