feat vs LaunchDarkly.
LaunchDarkly is the platform feat is closest to. Flags, targeting rules, segments, percentage rollouts, and approvals all work the way a LaunchDarkly user expects. The difference is the bill and the gates: LaunchDarkly meters two things, service connections and client-side monthly actives, and holds audit logs, approvals, and custom roles behind an Enterprise contract. feat meters one thing, SDK requests, and those three features cost $99 a month.
Worked example. Take a team running 40 backend services with 100,000 people using their product each month. On LaunchDarkly Foundation that is $400 of service connections plus $833 of client-side MAU at their listed yearly-billing rates: $1,233 a month. On feat the same shop is counted in requests. Forty streaming services spend about 176,000 a month between them. Say each of those 100,000 people opens the app twenty times, and each visit costs an evaluation, a stream connect, and a background poll or two: call it three requests, so 6 million. Round the lot up to 6.2M and it still lands inside Pro at $29. Add approvals and custom roles, the things LaunchDarkly puts behind a contract, and it is Growth at $99.

Where LaunchDarkly is ahead today.
It's a bigger product. LaunchDarkly ships an experimentation suite with a real stats engine, guarded releases with automatic rollback on its Guardian plan, around 30 SDKs including iOS and Android, and code references that find stale flags in your repositories. Its SCIM support and SOC 2 attestation matter if procurement runs your security review. If you need those things now, pick LaunchDarkly; we'd rather you choose it than be surprised by us. feat ships six SDKs today, experimentation is planned with no date committed, and our SOC 2 engagement hasn't started.
Switching from LaunchDarkly?
Because the targeting model matches (rules, segments, percentage rollouts, individual targets), most flag configurations move over without re-thinking them. If you want a hand with the import, email support@feat.so.
