16 boilerplates in our catalog share enough with Gravity (built around NodeJS and React) to count as alternatives. 1 of them has a free tier. They are listed by overlap, closest match first.
Gravity makes a particular set of choices about stack and included integrations. If your project disagrees with those choices on any major point, an alternative that agrees with them will save you more time, and that is the entire value proposition of a boilerplate. The list below exists for exactly that case.
Each alternative is scored on two factors: how many technologies it shares with Gravity and how many of the same integrations it includes. Shared stack weighs heavier, because switching frameworks costs more than adding an integration. The score determines the order below; we do not accept payment for ranking positions.
Gravity starts at $506. Among the 16 alternatives: 1 offers a free tier (Paralect Ship), and 16 are cheaper than Gravity. The median paid kit across the whole catalog costs $149. Treat price as a tiebreaker rather than a primary criterion; the cost difference between two kits is small against the cost of picking one that fights your requirements.

By stack and feature overlap: Scale to Zero AWS, QuickLanding and supastarter. The full ranked list is on this page; the ranking weighs shared technologies heavier than shared integrations.
Paralect Ship has a free tier. The usual trade-off applies: free kits tend to have fewer included integrations and less frequent maintenance, so check the commit history before committing your project to one.
Scale to Zero AWS ($80) and QuickLanding ($19.99), against $506 for Gravity. Whether the saving matters depends on what each kit includes; the feature comparison on this page is the better basis for the decision.
Gravity's position comes down to its specific combination of NodeJS and React and included integrations. Each alternative on this page trades some of that combination for something else: a different framework, a different feature mix, or a different price. The per-kit comparison above shows exactly which trade each one makes.
Scale to Zero AWS and QuickLanding have the highest overlap with Gravity. Raw feature count is listed per kit above; note that overlap with your requirements matters more than the total.
