I'm building TrustWall — a tool that lets you collect testimonials with a simple link and display them on your site with embeddable widgets.
Why I built it
Every SaaS founder I talked to had the same problem:
- Happy customers, but no testimonials on their site
- Asking for reviews feels awkward
- Displaying them nicely takes dev time
What I learned
Email is the #1 channel for collecting testimonials — 68% response rate with the right ask.
The #1 thing that surprised me: email is the best channel for collecting testimonials — 68% response rate when you ask within 7 days of delivery.
Tech stack
- Next.js + React + Tailwind
- Supabase for the backend
- Stripe for billing
- Hosted on Vercel
Would love feedback from the dev community. What would make you actually start collecting testimonials for your side projects?

This is a real problem. When I launched my tools site, I also had happy users but almost zero testimonials because asking manually felt uncomfortable. One thing that worked for me was asking right after the user successfully finished a task — that timing matters a lot. A simple link makes it much easier. Curious, are you also planning to support text + screenshot testimonials?
