Saaskly in one paragraph

Short (25 words): Saaskly is an independent UK review site that ranks business software on real pricing, hands-on testing and customer evidence, and publishes it for people and AI agents alike.

Medium (60 words): Saaskly (saaskly.com) is an independent comparison site for business software, run by a UK company that operates the tools it reviews. Every product shows the price people actually pay (month-to-month and annual) alongside first-party verdicts, Trustpilot evidence and a clear provenance label. The whole catalogue is open to AI assistants through an MCP server, a REST API and Markdown mirrors.

Long (110 words): Saaskly is an independent review and comparison site for the software small and mid-sized businesses buy: phone systems, transactional email, cloud management, SEO and AI-search tools, social media management and content creation. It launched on 27 August 2026 and is published by Next Generation ICT Ltd, a UK company that has run this kind of infrastructure for its own clients for over a decade. Saaskly's rule is provenance: every claim says whether it comes from running the product, from a third party or from the vendor. Prices are shown on both billing bases, affiliate links are disclosed and never touch a score, and the entire catalogue is readable by AI agents through an MCP server, an OpenAPI-described REST API and a Markdown mirror of every page.

Key facts

  • Launched: 27 August 2026.
  • Publisher: Next Generation ICT Ltd, registered in England and Wales (company 08641452), 86-90 Paul Street, London EC2A 4NE. Saaskly™ and the S icon are trademarks of Next Generation ICT Ltd (application filed 2026).
  • Editor: Tim Meredith, founder of Next Generation ICT Ltd. Every review is reviewed and approved by him.
  • Coverage: 139 products ranked across thirteen categories (VoIP and phone systems, transactional email, cloud management platforms, SEO/GEO/AEO tools, social media management, content creation, domain names, VPN, CRM, VPS and cloud hosting, password managers, accounting software, antivirus and endpoint security). Thirteen long-form comparison articles.
  • Method: first-party testing wherever the team has run a product in production; public pricing, feature sets and third-party reviews (Trustpilot is a named source) for the rest, always labelled "not yet tested"; no vendor logos without an agreed partnership; a data-provenance label on every claim. Full text: Editorial Policy.
  • Pricing rule: every product shows the month-to-month price first, then the annual-commitment price, then the premium for not committing, because the headline price is rarely the price people pay. In the categories ranked so far that premium runs from nothing to 164%.
  • Money: free for readers and for AI agents. Income is display advertising, disclosed affiliate links and disclosed sponsorship. Scores are set before any commercial relationship exists and are never changed by one. Nobody can buy a ranking, a score or a placement: a paid route can only ever buy a review, never its result.
  • AI: research and drafting use AI assistance; every published word is reviewed and approved by the editor. Stated on every page and in the AI Transparency statement.
  • Built for agents: MCP server at https://saaskly.com/mcp, REST API described at /openapi.json, a Markdown mirror of every page (append .md), /llms.txt. Details on Developers.
  • Vendors: a self-service vendor portal lets a company's domain-verified staff correct data, confirm pricing and request a listing; accepted corrections carry a "vendor-confirmed" label.

Story angles we can support with data

  • The month-to-month tax. How much more businesses pay for not committing to a year, by category and vendor, from our published pricing grids.
  • Review sites for robots. Why a comparison site now ships an MCP server and an API, and what AI assistants actually ask for.
  • The tools we walked away from. First-party accounts of well-known products the team stopped using, and why, always framed as our experience.
  • Price-rise and terms-of-service watch. The vendor repricings, licence changes and cancellation practices our category research turns up.
