  • a hosted collection URL that isn't yours

04Free and cheaper alternatives

Real Testimonialsfree

Another WordPress route: forms, moderation, grids and sliders are free; video and the clever automation live upstairs.

Versus paying: It is WordPress-only and less convenient than Senja/Testimonial.to for sending a hosted collection link, accepting video, importing proof and embedding polished widgets on any site.

Shosayfree

Unlimited text, video and audio proof, imports, walls and 25-plus widgets; the bill is zero, the tiny Powered by pill is not.

Versus paying: The free service is unusually complete, but every widget keeps a Powered by Shosay pill and its automation, integrations and branding controls are less mature.

Strong Testimonialsfree

A WordPress-only form, moderation queue, grid, slider and widget; simple enough once you already own the WordPress problem.

Versus paying: It needs WordPress and offers a more manual form-and-shortcode workflow, without the paid services' universal hosted page, easy video collection, imports and cross-platform widgets.

05The build prompt

Paste this into an AI coding tool (such as Claude, ChatGPT, Lovable or Replit) to build your own version.

prompt.txt
Build me a testimonial collection and display tool like Senja. Requirements:

- A public /submit page: name, role/company, avatar upload (or auto-fetch from a
  provided URL), star rating, and the testimonial text. Store submissions in SQLite
  with an approved flag defaulting to false.
- An /admin page (basic-auth from .env) listing submissions with approve/delete
  buttons · nothing shows publicly until approved.
- A public /wall page: masonry grid of approved testimonials, clean cards with
  avatar, name, stars, and text. Mobile-friendly, dark mode support.
- An embeddable widget: /embed.js renders the wall into any page via one script
  tag + a div, iframe-free, styled to inherit the host page's font.
- Image uploads resized server-side to 128px avatars, stored on disk.
- Node or Python, single small server, deploy instructions for a VPS.
