Best technographics tools in 2026
Eleven technographics tools compared on what each one bills for, the cap that unit carries and what the tool hands back for it. Prices and caps were read from each provider's own public pages on 3 September 2026; the Installmap figures come from the crawls the site publishes.
The order follows the billing unit: free first, then monthly plans, then per-record credits, then quote-only contracts.

"check" means the provider does not state it on the pages read, so nothing is filled in for them.
1. Installmap
Installmap bills nothing and meters nothing. There is no seat, no credit and no row cap. The counts come from crawls whose full results, denominators and failure counts are on the site.
The site prints the share of each of the six crawled lists that runs a tool, the same tool across all six on one chart, and cuts by industry, employee band and country. PostHog runs on 12.8% of the 5,386 crawled Y Combinator companies (688 domains) and HubSpot on 25.6% of the 4,886 crawled Inc 5000 companies. A cell in the wider sample is published once its base reaches 20 crawled domains and reads n/a below that; the group segment tables use a floor of 100. Detection runs 448 fingerprints in 26 categories, and the method page states the recall of a plain fetch against a rendered one, 35.8% on the Inc 5000.
2. StackShare
StackShare charges nothing to read. Company stack profiles, tool pages, pros and cons, alternatives and an adoption tab are all open, and the directory header states 150K tools.
What the free reading is worth depends on where the stacks come from, and they are submitted by companies and developers rather than detected by a crawler. There is no sample to describe, no denominator and no method, so a profile says what someone typed in and not what a site loads. stackshare.io/pricing returns 404, so whether anything is billed at all could not be read.

3. PublicWWW
PublicWWW bills searches and rows. The free tier opens the top 3M websites and caps downloads at 20 rows. Pro is $109 a month or $1090 a year for 100 searches a day and up to 100K rows, Business $199 for 200 a day and 300K rows, Enterprise $499 for 300 a day and 1M rows.
The unit bought is a source code search, so the answer is a count of pages carrying a snippet rather than a share of a stated set of companies. The homepage states 514,190,657 pages indexed as of 30 August 2026. The FAQ states there is no free trial.

4. Datanyze
Datanyze bills the contact reveal. Nyze Lite is $0 for 90 days at 10 credits a month, Nyze Pro 1 is $29 a month for 80 and Nyze Pro 2 is $55 for 160. One credit is one contact information reveal, spent through the Chrome extension or the directory pages.
The extension reveals email addresses and phone numbers from LinkedIn profiles and company websites. Nothing on the pages read describes technology detection or publishes a technology count. The FAQ states that Lite users lose access to details they had already revealed when the trial ends.

5. NerdyData
NerdyData bills the seat and caps the download. Basic is $200 a month for 5,000 rows a download, Pro $300 for 200,000 and Enterprise $1,000 for a million, with unlimited downloads at those row caps and domain enrichment of 1,000 to 10,000 domains a month. API access is pay as you go and is not included with a monthly subscription.
The yearly toggle states savings of over 70% without publishing a yearly figure. Detection is described as a proprietary crawler that fully renders pages including JavaScript, with no sample size or failure count published.

6. Wappalyzer
Wappalyzer bills the seat and meters the lookup. Pro is $250 a month for one user, two lead list technology targets and 5,000 lookups. Business is $450 for five users, unlimited targets and 20,000 lookups. Enterprise is $850 and up for 25 or more users and 200,000 or more lookups, and annual billing is stated to save 17%.
CRM enrichment is listed on Business and Enterprise and not on Pro. The free tier is 50 lookups and email verifications a month, 5 website alerts and sample lead lists. No market share count, industry cut or method is published at any tier.

7. TheirStack
TheirStack bills the company, not the seat. Plans state no seat limit and unlimited pages and team members. One-time company credits run from 1,000 for $109 to 200,000 for $999, monthly API subscriptions start at 1,500 credits for $49 a month, and the calculator weights a job at 1 credit and a company or technographics lookup at 3.
One credit reveals or exports one company, viewable for 90 days, and unused paid credits roll over for 12 months. The public technology pages give a total company count free, 228,936 on the HubSpot page, with country and region breakdowns.

8. BuiltWith
BuiltWith bills the technology. Basic is $295 a month and stops at 2 technologies, 2 keywords and 1 login, Pro is $495 for unlimited technologies with 1 login, and Team is $995 for unlimited logins, with annual billing stated as discounted. Only Basic carries the technology cap.
Individual site lookups are free forever; the lists of sites running a technology are what the plans meter. The plans page states 126,278 tracked technologies, 491.9 million domains and 18 years of history. Note that builtwith.com/pricing is not a pricing page: the plan detail is at builtwith.com/plans.

9. Enlyft
Enlyft publishes no price. The pricing page returns 404 and no figure appears on the homepage or the product pages, so what a seat costs and what it meters could not be read on 3 September 2026.
The free product pages are usable without buying anything: a company count, a market share figure and breakdowns by industry, country, employee size and revenue, plus over 100 data fields per company on average. Five example companies are named and the rest sit behind a get the list action with no list size published. No sample, no failure count and no method sits behind the share.

10. SimilarTech
SimilarTech publishes no price and, on the pages read, no purchase path of its own. similartech.com/pricing returns HTTP 404, www.similartech.com does not resolve in DNS, and every learn more and sign in link routes to similarweb.com.
The solution pages state scale rather than terms: 100M+ websites, 4M+ apps, 235M+ product SKUs, 20M+ companies and 10 years of historical data. Every billing cell above reads check because nothing on the domain states one. Company search by technology and a full breakdown of one company's website technologies are stated as capabilities with no caps attached.

11. HG Insights
HG Insights is quote only. Pricing is stated as based on data consumption, with a standard two year contract and a one year term available at a higher price, and no dollar figure appears on any public page read.
The modules are bought separately: Market Analyzer, Data Studio and Sales Copilot, plus Intent-Driven Leads and Customer Voice. Seat and credit volumes are not published. The pricing page states that no pilot and no free trial plan is currently available, and access runs through a demo request or a conversation with sales rather than a self serve lookup.
