AI tools and SaaS stack

Turn AI and SaaS calculator results into a tool-buying shortlist.

Why this route makes money

Visitors calculating developer hours, implementation cost, or SaaS ROI are usually comparing tools, agencies, or automation vendors next.

Route them to approved AI, SaaS, hosting, app marketplace, or implementation partners — or capture the lead internally until the partner URL is configured.

Lead value: Medium to high: SaaS trials, implementation retainers, AI coding tools, cloud spend.

Partner target

Configure this env var when an approved partner URL exists:

NEXT_PUBLIC_IMPACT_TECHNOLOGY_URL

Until then, the internal lead-capture fallback keeps the demand instead of leaking traffic.
