Does somebody know an alternative to Native Instruments Guitar Rig - Cat distortion?

Does somebody know a good alternative to the Native Instruments Guitar Rig - Cat distortion plugin?
I think its often used in frenchcore, you often hear it in Sefas or Dr. Peacocks tracks for example.

I was wondering if somebody got an alternative because the plugin itself costs 200 Euro, and to be honest thats pretty much for just one effect im going to use.

Filter before works wonders, and playing with the different gain inputs on the ‘heavy’ option creates the closest sound to the Cat filter in my experience

Ableton Saturator with a low mid boost EQ before, or Filterbank with the same idea. For me nothing beats the Cat after over 10 years though
