What Simple Commenter is
Simple Commenter is an embeddable feedback widget for comments placed directly on website pages. Users, clients, and team members can respond on live pages and attach files, screenshots, or drawings. Installation uses a script tag, so the maker says build tools and complex setup are unnecessary. Access can be public, token-only, or restricted to logged-in users. A dashboard organizes feedback with statuses and a board view. Integrations include Asana, ClickUp, email, GitHub, Jira, Linear, Monday.com, Slack, Trello, webhooks, and an AI agent using MCP. The REST API can provision team members and clients, read and update feedback, and create client login tokens. The maker says customer data is stored in the EU, encrypted at rest with AES-256 and in transit with TLS 1.2 or higher, and deleted on request. Pro costs $34.99 a month; Agency costs $169 a month. A 14-day trial is available, with no free plan.
