The Rent-vs-Own Stack Map
See what you're renting. And what owning costs.
Your side-by-side map in 5 minutes. No developer, no code.
$2,400 to $6,000 a year to rent the platform your whole business runs on, and they can raise it any time.
Owned doesn't mean homemade. One system that comes together like your all-in-one, except you own it.
Which best describes your setup?
We start with a typical price for that platform; adjust it to match your plan.
Which of these do you actually use?
Each one becomes a row on your map. Uncheck anything you don’t use.
Check each tool you pay for and enter what it costs.
We’ll total your rent, and each tool becomes a row on your map.

Stop renting. Start owning.
