WiserNotify is a conversion notification tool that flashes "Sarah from Chicago just bought!" popups. SocialProof embeds your actual customer testimonials — real words from real people who love you.
These are fundamentally different products. WiserNotify shows small notification popups in the corner of your site — "X people are viewing this," "Someone just signed up" — designed to create urgency and FOMO. SocialProof collects testimonials from your real customers and displays them in a clean embeddable widget. One manufactures pressure; the other surfaces genuine advocacy.

There's an honest conversation happening in the conversion optimization world about FOMO notification tools. The popups work — in the short term. But they have real downsides that WiserNotify won't mention on their pricing page:
Use WiserNotify if: You run a high-volume e-commerce store and want urgency-driven conversion popups alongside a suite of other social proof notifications. You have 10K+ monthly visitors and the numbers will look credible.
Use SocialProof if: You're a small business, service provider, freelancer, or early-stage SaaS that wants to display genuine customer testimonials. You want something honest, embeddable, and free to start.
No — and that's intentional. SocialProof focuses on collecting and displaying real testimonials from your customers. Activity notifications ("5 people viewing") are a different category of tool. We believe authentic reviews build more durable trust than urgency tactics.
Yes. One active widget, unlimited testimonials, free forever. No credit card required to start. Upgrade to Pro ($9/mo) to unlock multiple widgets, custom branding removal, and priority support.
Absolutely. Even 3–5 testimonials displayed well can dramatically increase conversions. You don't need hundreds of reviews. You need the right ones, displayed at the right moment.
If you have testimonials collected in WiserNotify or anywhere else, you can add them manually to SocialProof in minutes. Our collection forms make it easy to gather new ones going forward.
