Would love any feedback or suggestions. Also: would you find a tool like this useful? Would you pay for it given more functionality? Cheers.
My only question is how do you pronounce the name? Since I can't settle on a pronunciation, the name is not too memorable for me as of right now.
As for the pay options, it really depends on how much you plan to charge, and what features would be provided in the paid version. Overall, it is a really useful tool and my coworkers and I will definitely be using it for our projects.
Name should be pronounced like "Use Aura" but without a gap. It's a play on the word Aura, combined with User, or Usability, as the heatmap is a bit like an aura.
There are a couple of angles I see for a paid version:
1) Beef up the features by adding more tests types (e.g. a preference test like: "Which do you like more: A or B?" -- like a poll but visual) and more customisation (e.g. ability to chain tests together, easy way to compare test performance for iterations, priority in the public test pool etc.).
2) Hook it up to Amazon's Mechanical Turk and basically get instant outsourced testers. Perhaps you can even do some demographic filtering here, although I don't have any experience with Amazon Turk yet. This option can probably tie in with 1) since the single page tests right now are probably too simple to pay for--you'll want to get more value out of each one, so getting a chain of tests with comments will make more sense.
