Frequently Asked Questions

IndiAlt is a discovery platform showcasing Indian-made digital products and SaaS tools. Beyond the directory, you can create an account, publish a public profile, join community Q&A, and leave product reviews. We help founders, businesses, and decision-makers explore homegrown alternatives.

Yes. Browsing products, listing your product, claiming a listing, joining community Q&A, leaving reviews, and creating a profile are free. IndiAlt is not a paid marketplace.

We research Indian-built products and add public listings to help improve their visibility. If you're the owner, you can claim the listing and update or remove it anytime.

You can browse the directory without signing in. An account is required for community Q&A, managing your dashboard and profile, and for some submit or claim flows. Guests can still start a submission or claim and verify via email OTP.

Go to Continue / Login and sign in with your email using a one-time code (OTP). You can optionally set a password later in your dashboard. Depending on availability, you may also sign in with Google, GitHub, or Zoho.

Open your Dashboard after signing in. From there you can manage products, claims, reviews, community activity, your public profile, password, and notification preferences.

A public profile is your page at /u/your-username. You can share a display name, avatar, bio, company, skills, social links, and more. You choose what to publish and whether your email is Public, Members only, or Private.

Sign in, open Dashboard → Profile, fill in your details, pick a unique username, set visibility options, and publish when you're ready.

Community is IndiAlt's Q&A space to ask questions, share answers, and discuss products and alternatives. You can browse questions publicly; asking and answering requires signing in.

Signed-in users can upvote or downvote questions and answers. Question authors can mark a best answer to highlight the most helpful response.

You can edit your own posts. If something is spam, abusive, or inappropriate, use the report option so our team can review it.
