Shoutout

About Shoutout

Imagine you've poured your heart into building something incredible. You know it works because your customers tell you so, in excited emails and grateful messages. But there's a gap—a chasm of trust between you and your next potential buyer. They visit your site, see your claims, and wonder, "But does it really work for people like me?" You're left spending precious energy convincing strangers instead of letting your happy customers do the talking. This was the frustrating journey for founders Kyle and Mitya, who, after building various tools, kept hitting the same wall: showcasing authentic social proof was powerful but painfully complicated. So, they built Shoutout to bridge that gap. Shoutout is the simple, powerful engine that turns customer love into your most effective sales tool. It’s designed for founders, marketers, and creators who are tired of bloated, expensive platforms and just want a straightforward way to collect video or text testimonials with a simple link and display them beautifully on their website. With a focus on lifetime value over recurring subscriptions, Shoutout empowers you to build trust, drive conversions, and grow your business by letting your customers' authentic voices shine, finally making social proof work for you instead of you working for it.

Features of Shoutout

Frictionless Testimonial Collection

Gathering feedback should be the easiest part of the process, not a hurdle. Shoutout eliminates all barriers by providing a simple, shareable link you can send to customers via email, chat, or SMS. They can submit a video or text testimonial in seconds without needing to create an account or log in. This seamless experience dramatically increases submission rates, ensuring you capture authentic praise the moment the feeling is strongest, turning satisfied customers into vocal advocates effortlessly.

Beautiful, Customizable Display Widgets

Once collected, your testimonials need to be seen. Shoutout offers a variety of elegant, no-code display options to match your site's aesthetic. Choose from customizable widgets, engaging carousels, or immersive "Wall of Love" layouts. You can embed these anywhere on your website with a simple snippet of code or share standalone testimonial pages that look professionally designed out of the box, ensuring your social proof integrates perfectly and attracts attention.

Unlimited Usage & White-Label Options

Shoutout believes in empowering your growth without restrictive limits. On a single plan, you can collect unlimited video and text testimonials and create unlimited display widgets for your projects. For a truly branded experience, you can enable the white-label option to completely remove all Shoutout branding, presenting the testimonial system as a seamless, native part of your own brand's toolkit and website.

Lifetime Access with One-Time Pricing

In a world of endless monthly subscriptions, Shoutout offers a liberating alternative: lifetime access. For a single, upfront payment, you secure the tool forever for your projects. This model, born from the founders' desire to provide real value without ongoing financial burden, saves you thousands compared to annual competitors' fees, making powerful social proof an affordable, permanent asset for your business.

Use Cases of Shoutout

Boosting E-commerce Conversion Rates

For online store owners, the gap between browsing and buying is often a lack of trust. By embedding a Shoutout testimonial carousel on product pages or the checkout page, you can showcase real customer experiences with specific products. This direct social proof addresses doubts in real-time, reduces cart abandonment, and convinces hesitant visitors that others have been delighted with their purchase, directly translating into higher sales.

Validating SaaS and Digital Products

SaaS founders and indie makers face the challenge of proving their software's value in a crowded market. Shoutout allows you to create a dedicated "Wall of Love" featuring video testimonials from happy users. Displaying these on your landing page or pricing page provides tangible evidence of success and ROI, helping prospects self-educate and move confidently toward a purchase decision before a sales call even begins.

Enhancing Course and Coaching Authority

For course creators and coaches, credibility is everything. Prospective students want to know if the investment will yield results. Using Shoutout, you can easily collect and display powerful video testimonials from past students showcasing their transformations. This social proof, placed on your sales page or within a membership portal, builds immense authority and trust, significantly increasing enrollment rates by letting your students' success stories speak for you.

Strengthening Service-Based Business Proposals

Freelancers, agencies, and consultants often spend hours crafting proposals only to hear silence. Integrating a Shoutout widget into your website's portfolio or "Results" section provides instant credibility. When a potential client sees authentic praise from past clients—especially in video format—it pre-emptively answers their key questions about your reliability and quality, shortening the sales cycle and helping you win more valuable contracts.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does "lifetime access" mean?

Lifetime access means you pay a single, one-time fee for the current plan and can use Shoutout for the listed number of projects (e.g., 3 websites) forever. There are no monthly or annual subscription fees. This includes all core features like unlimited testimonials and embeds. The lifetime deal also includes guaranteed updates and new features for a period of two years from your purchase date, ensuring the tool evolves with your needs.

What is your refund policy?

Shoutout offers a 100% money-back guarantee. If you are not satisfied with the product for any reason, you can request a full refund within 7 days of your purchase. This no-questions-asked policy allows you to test the platform, integrate it with your site, and see the value it brings to your business with complete peace of mind and zero financial risk.

How many websites can I use Shoutout on?

The standard Lifetime plan is valid for use on up to 3 different websites or projects. This means you can manage and display testimonials for three distinct brands, client sites, or product domains from a single Shoutout account. This flexibility makes it ideal for entrepreneurs managing multiple ventures, small agencies, or freelancers looking to add value for their clients.

What happens after 2 years of updates?

After the included 2-year period of updates and new features, your license to use Shoutout remains active forever on the version you have. You will continue to have access to all the features and functionality available at the end of those two years. You can choose to continue using that stable version indefinitely, or optionally renew access to major new updates if desired, though core functionality never expires.

Pricing of Shoutout

Shoutout offers simple, transparent pricing focused on long-term value. The Lifetime Access plan is a popular one-time payment of $199 (normally $299), perfect for small teams and projects. It covers up to 3 websites/projects and includes unlimited testimonials, embeds, and published walls, plus custom branding. Removing Shoutout branding is an optional one-time add-on for $50. This plan includes 2 years of updates and the 7-day money-back guarantee.
