Frill is for teams that prioritise and ship features based on customer feedback
Beamer is all about announcements. Product teams that want to know what customers think choose Frill.
“Frill is a great solution for any marketing team that's trying to get more customer feedback. It's so much easier to stay in touch with what our customers want and what we need to do to improve our products.”
Tony Tang - Marketing Specialist at My Organic Sleep
With Beamer, the feedback loop is focused on announcements
Beamer is built to announce product updates first and collect feedback later, giving you lower visibility on what users think about new features before they go live.
Frill helps you listen to user feedback and know what users want, before you build it

Collect feedback, prioritise feature requests, and announce product updates. Keep users engaged through it all.
Meet users where it makes sense for them
Embed Frill on your own site and app. Make it easy for them to comment, vote, and share their feedback.
Unlimited announcements and views
Custom domain, comments, translations, unlimited team members, and announcements are available on all plans.
