Why Know Your Competitors Tech Stack?
Knowing what technologies your competitors use gives you strategic advantage. BuiltWith charges $295/month for this. Wappalyzer has limits.
What You Can Detect
With the right approach, you can identify:
Frontend : React, Vue, Angular, Next.js, Svelte, Tailwind
CMS : WordPress, Shopify, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow
Analytics : Google Analytics, Hotjar, Mixpanel, PostHog, Segment
Marketing : HubSpot, Intercom, Mailchimp, Klaviyo
Hosting : Cloudflare, AWS, Vercel, Netlify
Payments : Stripe, PayPal, Square
Support : Zendesk, Crisp, Tawk.to
How It Works
The detection is based on HTML signatures - specific patterns in the page source that reveal what tools are running:
# Example: detecting React if " react.production.min.js " in html or " __NEXT_DATA__ " in html : print ( " React detected " )
# Example: detecting Stripe if " js.stripe.com " in html : print ( " Stripe detected " )
