A comment on Show HN: Stoplight – Visual API Tooling.

First impression: after looking over the homepage, the 9 "Get Started - It's FREE" buttons made me hunt in the footer for "Pricing" or more information before signing up, because usually that tactic says "free trial, but then you want my money" to me.

Second impression is that it seems like a Swagger Editor tool combined with a REST Explorer (like Postman or Advanced REST Client). Testing now and will update with some more thoughts :)

It really is free, for individual use, forever :). Pricing starts at the team level - at $8/month/member. We're also introducing cheaper, annual pricing soon.

The hosted documentation integration is completely free - we have a paid option coming soon, that adds custom domains, theming, analytics, etc.

Eager to hear what you think - let us know!

Yeah, the copy kind of indicated to me that there was some pricing scheme coming, but there is no indication (or info) about that on your site. Just something to remember if you're going to take a little time to add the Pricing details :)
