Why they cost 8x more
Trustpilot charges for their brand name. We charge for infrastructure.
No Hostage Taking
With Trustpilot, if you stop paying, you lose access to showcase your hard-earned reviews. With Reviewlee, you can export your data anytime. It's your IP, not ours.
Infrastructure, Not Marketplace
We don't try to be a destination for consumers. We provide the pipes and tools for you to build trust on your own website, where it actually converts.
Fair Global Pricing
We don't charge per-domain fees that penalize international businesses. One subscription covers your needs, whether you operate in one country or ten.
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about switching from Trustpilot to Reviewlee.
What is a good alternative to Trustpilot?
Reviewlee is a transparent, developer-friendly alternative to Trustpilot built specifically for businesses frustrated with data lock-in and opaque pricing. Unlike Trustpilot, Reviewlee gives you full ownership of your review data with CSV/JSON export, includes API access on all paid plans, and starts at $39/month instead of $299+/month.
Can I own my review data instead of Trustpilot owning it?
Yes. With Reviewlee, you have full ownership of all your review data. You can export every review to CSV or JSON at any time. Reviewlee operates as a hosting facility for your data, not a gatekeeper — your reviews belong to you, and they remain preserved even if you cancel your subscription.
How much does Reviewlee cost compared to Trustpilot?
Reviewlee starts at $39/month (Starter plan), with the Growth plan at $79/month including full API access. By comparison, Trustpilot's comparable plans start at $299/month with annual commitments. Reviewlee also offers monthly billing with no annual lock-in, and includes a 14-day free trial with no credit card required.
Can I migrate my reviews from Trustpilot to Reviewlee?
Yes. Reviewlee supports importing historical review data via CSV upload or API. You can bring your existing reviews from Trustpilot or other platforms and consolidate them in one place with full export capability. Your data is never locked in.
Does Reviewlee have an API?
Yes. Reviewlee provides full REST API access included in the Growth plan ($79/month) and above. Unlike Trustpilot, which charges extra for API access as a paid add-on, Reviewlee includes API access as a standard feature with no additional fees or paywall barriers.
How does Reviewlee verify reviews are authentic?
Reviewlee supports multiple verification modes: email verification, proof of purchase validation, and manual verification. All moderation is transparent — businesses can hide reviews but cannot silently delete them. Every moderation action is recorded in a visible audit trail.
