Agree with @Aeolun's comment. Feature Flagging is one exception in buy vs. build where there just isn't any good SaaS out there that makes it "just buy it" worth it. More so if you need customizations beyond what is offered.

Yeah, hosting feature flags in some service is pretty easy (just use ParameterStore!). The hard part is actually using the flags in your application code, which I don't think is something that is easily solved in general
