Hearback is a drop-in feedback and NPS widget you host yourself. Hotjar charges $32/month ($1,152 over 3 years) for surveys; Feedbackfish charges $29/month. Hearback is $29 once — the same floating button, emoji ratings, and NPS surveys, with every response landing in an inbox on your own server.

• One-line embed: self-contained JS + CSS in a shadow DOM, so your site's styles never clash with the widget

• Feedback form: 1–5 emoji rating, Issue/Idea/Praise category, message, optional reply email

• NPS surveys: classic 0–10 with follow-up, shown once per visitor with a frequency cap enforced in browser and on server

• Auto-captured context: page URL, user agent, viewport, referrer, anonymous visitor token

• Inbox with filters (mode, category, rating, status), full-text search, and a new → in progress → resolved workflow

• NPS dashboard: live score, promoter/passive/detractor breakdown, weekly trend chart

• Widget designer with live preview; BYO-SMTP email notifications; one-click CSV export

• Spam-resistant: per-IP rate limiting + honeypot; unlimited projects and responses
