Sales Channel Scout
Compare where to sell your product on fees, payouts and seller requirements, every cell marked verified with its URL or unverified. Sales Channel Scout turns "where can I sell this?" into a sourced comparison instead of a list of names and remembered fees. It researches live, screens out channels that cannot work for you, and marks every cell as verified (with the URL it opened) or unverified.
Example input

I'm not selling on any platform right now. Please compare exactly these 3 candidates: Payhip, Ko-fi and Lemon Squeezy. Keep it short.
