Sameness · vs 2 named
How is this calculated?

Your page is interchangeable.

Put your page next to Salt Edge and a buyer would struggle to tell them apart. You're the most same of the 367 SaaS sites scored (SaaS avg 56).

No category benchmark matched this set.
Sameness Index on a 0 to 100 scale, from distinctive at 0 to interchangeable at 100. This page scores 79. Salt Edge scores 64. Yapily scores 66. The SaaS avg is 56.

Each named site is scored the same way, against the other 2 in this set, so its tick means the same as your marker. The dashed line is the frozen benchmark average.

  1. More same than average

    The average SaaS site scores 56; you scored 79.

    You are 23 points more same than the average SaaS site.

  2. Closest overlap: Salt Edge

    Of the 2 sites you named, Salt Edge echoes the most of what your page says. Scored the same way against the rest of the set, Salt Edge sits at 64.

    Salt Edge is the competitor you sound most like.

  3. Room to own more

    11% of your claim space is ownable: unique, relevant, and hard to copy. 6 of those claims sit in body copy, where few readers reach them.

    11% is ownable, and 6 buried opportunities could help you stand out more.

Do this first

Three changes worth testing first.

Chosen by rule from the comparison with Salt Edge and Yapily: the shared claim taking your most prominent space, then the claims only you make that sit too low on the page to be read. Each one links to its claim card.

  1. One API for fast, cost effective account top up

    Salt Edge and Yapily all say it too. Buyers may still need it, but shared ground cannot carry your section — move it lower and give that space to something only you can say.

    Table stakes
    Most of the set says this too.
  2. By integrating FinqOneAPI into your invoicing system, the creditor IBAN, the amount and the customer number or invoice reference can be captured automatically

    Nobody in the set says this. It sits in body copy, where few readers reach it — worth testing higher up the page; only buyers can tell you whether it lands.

    Surface
    Yours alone. Test it higher up.
  3. We clean and identify relevant matching keys so as you can feed data into your database like plug and play

    A claim that is yours alone, filed in body copy. Try it where it will be read before the shared claims are, and let buyers tell you if it moves them.

    Surface
    Yours alone. Test it higher up.

Try these changes, then test them with real buyers.

This measures overlap. Whether buyers notice is a different question, and only they can answer it.

Why this is not 100 minus the Sameness Index

The index is a weighted composite across six categories, including page structure and visuals. This bar is measured on your claims alone, weighted by where each one sits on the page. Different denominators, so the two never add to 100 and are not meant to.

How this was calculated

Sameness measures how much your claims overlap with the sites compared. It does not measure message quality or whether buyers prefer you.

AI-analyzed: an AI read each page on its own and grouped the claims that say the same thing. No score here was written by a model — every number is computed from those groupings in our own code, with the weights below.

How the score is built
The six category scores, their weights, and what a high score in each one means
CategoryWeightYoursWhat a high score means
Messaging
Category framing, who it is for, and the outcome promised
30%100The most expensive kind of sameness. A buyer cannot tell what job you do that the others do not.
Claims
Attribute and benefit claims — speed, ease, quality, ROI
30%100Every shared claim is a line already read on another tab. Cut the ones nobody owns and spend the space on something they cannot.
Features
Capabilities and functions the page lists
15%62Expected in a mature category, and the least alarming of the six. Feature parity is normal; leading with it is the mistake.
Proof
The kinds of evidence offered: customer logos, numbers, testimonials, case studies, badges
10%23Same kinds of proof as everyone means the proof stops working as proof. It is scored on the kind of evidence, not on which customers are named.
Structure
Section order, navigation, CTA language and placement
10%59The generic SaaS template — hero, logos, three-feature grid, testimonial, CTA. Familiar is not the same as memorable.
Visual
Palette family, imagery style, layout patterns
5%24Weighted lowest on purpose: buyers rarely decide on this. Worth knowing, rarely worth fixing first.

Each site was read on its own first, with no knowledge of the others, so your page gets no benefit of the doubt a competitor’s does not. A category nothing could be measured for drops out and the rest are re-weighted, rather than counted as zero.

What it cannot tell you

The index can find where two pages converge. It cannot say whether a buyer would notice, or which of your reasons to buy actually land. A single check also moves several points between runs, so read the band and the ranking, not the last digit.

Your highest-impact changes

  1. 1
    Table stakesYour section copy says “One API for fast, cost effective account top up”.

    Salt Edge and Yapily all say it too. Buyers may still need it, but shared ground cannot carry your section — move it lower and give that space to something only you can say.

  2. 2
    Table stakesYour section copy says “FinqLink: The One API you need to optimize your payments collection.”.

    Keep the fact, lose the position: salt Edge and Yapily all say it too, and your section is spending its first impression on the same territory as theirs.

    Table stakesYour section copy says “You get all your incoming payments automatically reconciled with your outgoing bills in your accounting”.

    This is the set's common ground — Salt Edge and Yapily all say it too. It will not set you apart wherever it sits, and in the section it costs you the one place a distinctive claim would be read.

  4. 4
    Table stakesYour section copy says “Bank connectors in 14 countries”.

    A buyer with three tabs open reads a version of this on every one of them. Say it further down for the readers who need it; the section should carry a claim they will only find here.
