Automated Review Collector

Collect reviews while you sleep.

The Problem

Social proof drives sales, but most businesses have few reviews. Manually asking customers is awkward and time-consuming. Happy customers forget to leave reviews, while unhappy ones don't forget. Without a system, you're leaving testimonials—and sales—on the table.

The Solution

An automated system that sends review requests at the perfect time post-purchase. Beautiful, mobile-friendly review forms that take seconds to complete. Collect star ratings, written reviews, and even video testimonials. Display them on your site with an embeddable widget.

How it works:

Widget for your site
