Vet Request: Yet another catalog of online services, but this time with a focus on "normal" people, not business owners. Does it make sense?

Hello everyone! I would like to ask you for a little bit of your time. Could you please tell me if you think that there is any point in pursuing the following idea?

I was wondering if there would be a place on the market for yet another online service catalog. The little twist would be that it would be focused not on business owners and indie hackers but on "regular" people.

I would advertise this to the people as a catalog of online tools and services and categorize every online business, add meaningful tags and keywords. And later, I would let people browse and search this catalog by adding single keywords in the search bar and filters like - needs to have a free tier, needs to contain API feature, etc.

The result would be presented as a nice list with logos of the SaaS'es, a short general description, and a nice, mini table with described costs and pricing levels.

My main question is, do you think that there is a space in the market for something like this?

Do you see yourself searching for:

  • "writing ai" + needs to have free tier
  • "discord bot" + needs to have API
  • "scraping real estate database"

Or maybe there are simply too many websites like that and a few little spins won't be enough to gain traction?

I would be really grateful for any feedback and poll votes. Even simple comments like "stupid" could help me save time or make a decision to proceed with it or not.

Thank you very much!
