What is LegitLayer

LegitLayer is a credibility-first platform that evaluates and verifies new SaaS products, tools, and digital services. Instead of vague reviews or paid placements, we dig into a product’s policies, claims, and user experience — then decide whether it deserves a “Verified by LegitLayer” badge.

The goal is to help:

Founders stand out with credibility
Users trust newer tools faster
Reviewers (us) build a moat around trust, honesty, and transparency

What We Evaluate

We evaluate each product across five core parameters:

Compliance & Data Practices
Website Claim-to-Reality Match
Product Experience
Pricing & Refund Fairness
Support & Responsiveness

A platform must meet LegitLayer standards* in at least three of these areas — with Product Experience being non-negotiable — and show strong alignment in the remaining two to get LegitLayered which means earn our verification badge.

What do we mean by “LegitLayer standards”

The LegitLayer standard is a practical benchmark based on transparency, user trust, and real-world usability. A product must:

Clearly communicate what it does — and actually deliver it
Handle user data ethically and transparently
Offer a functional, intuitive experience with minimal friction
Be upfront about pricing and refund options
Respond to users promptly and helpfully

We don’t expect perfection — but we do expect honesty, usability, and a commitment to user trust.
