## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace Chameleon you would be making a builder that other people can use without writing code. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 72 of the 100 other website and product analytics tools grade higher. It costs $3,348 a year.

- You could make: Surveys: an app builder makes this well.
- You could not: A builder that other people can use without writing code.
- You could not: Splitting visitors between versions and telling you which won.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, HubSpot, Salesforce and Mixpanel among them.
- You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.

A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool. Nothing was built to test it.
