Vocal Video is a strong product for businesses that specifically want video testimonials. But most customers — even happy ones — won't take the time to film themselves. SocialProof focuses on text testimonials: lower friction, higher response rates, works for every type of business.

Video testimonials are powerful when you can get them. The challenge: asking a client to film themselves is high friction. Most busy customers — even loyal, satisfied ones — won't do it. A simple text testimonial form gets you responses. An empty video testimonial library gets you nothing. SocialProof optimizes for volume and ease: collect lots of real testimonials you can actually use.
If you run a SaaS company with a rabid fanbase and you want video testimonials for your sales page and LinkedIn ads, Vocal Video might be worth $49/mo. It's a purpose-built tool for that use case.
If you're a plumber, a coach, a dentist, or a consultant who wants happy clients' words on your website — and you'd like those testimonials to actually show up — text testimonials collected via a simple form will outperform video every time on response rate.
SocialProof is free to start. You'll have your first widget live in 5 minutes and probably your first testimonial within a week of sending the collection link to your clients.
Send a collection link to your clients today. No friction, no video setup required.
