#13Google provides a REST API for its Suggest feature [1] which can be used for product vs style searches. I use it in a CLI script specifically for this use case.

#16I miss google doing this for us by aggregating collections of useful blogs and articles written by people thoughtfully comparing things, but now google is too busy giving sites like this and all the others ranking, starving actually useful resources of oxygen.

Somehow, when I search for comparisons, I never want such an automated site, but an human written article.

#18I don't see the utility of a tool like this that doesn't have editorial input. A list of alternative tools doesn't really tell me what tool would be better for my needs.
Ableton is an alternative to Logic Pro. But only a pro can tell me that Ableton works best as a performance + production tool while Logic is mostly only for production

It’s a good site for getting an overview of possible alternatives to software, and I don’t even know to what extent I’d agree that calling it automated.
I most often use it to get a list of open source alternatives to proprietary software.
For example:
https://alternativeto.net/software/clip-studio-paint/?licens...
And notice importantly that the user written comments for each of the alternatives are specifically for the context of the comparison in question.
