Where are you getting the data on who uses what?

My co-founder told me that he was actually inspired by a HN post you started--thanks for that!

Our goal is to make it easier to choose products/services for your business based on the companies that actually use them: What analytics do YC companies use? What do small non-profits use for CRM? This product is pre-beta, and we definitely plan to add more features/data, including reviews. We'd really appreciate feedback on what would make it more useful for you!

Hey, how do we request for inclusion? Our tool, Visual Website Optimizer, is currently missing. Thanks.
