No view caps, ever
Elfsight counts every page load as a view and switches the widget off when you pass the tier cap. Amabrik has unlimited views on every plan, so growing traffic never changes your bill or hides a widget.
Elfsight alternative
The Elfsight alternative without view limits

Why Amabrik is a top Elfsight alternative
The differences that change your monthly bill and your page speed, not a feature checklist for its own sake.
No Powered-by badge
Elfsight shows its branding badge on the Free plan and you can't remove it there. Amabrik has no Powered-by badge on any plan, including the $29 Starter, so there's no logo, link, or footer mention on your widgets.
The whole suite from the entry plan
Elfsight sells one app per widget type, so Instagram plus Reviews plus YouTube means three separate apps. Amabrik includes all 10 widgets and both scanners on every plan; plans differ only by the number of sites.
Leads go straight to your CRM
Form, email-capture, and chatbot leads forward to your connected CRM, email tool, or webhook the instant they land. Amabrik never stores, logs, or sells them, and there's no submissions table to leak.
A loader that stays out of the way
An independent 2026 test found Elfsight renders into the global DOM with about 188 KB of JavaScript across two files and no CSS isolation. Amabrik ships a loader under 5 KB, code-splits every widget, and runs heavy ones in their own frame.
Two scanners Elfsight doesn't have
Every Amabrik plan includes a Security scan (leaked keys, open databases, exposed .env files) and an SEO/AEO scan that returns two scores, each with a copy-paste fix prompt for Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor.

- One app per widget type
A single Basic Elfsight app on low traffic starts around $6/mo, but once you need several widgets or have real traffic, the per-app, per-view tiers add up and the widget switches off at the cap. Amabrik stays one predictable price with unlimited views and the full suite, so for most sites it's the better choice. See Amabrik pricing.
Which Elfsight widgets Amabrik replaces
Amabrik replaces the Elfsight apps most sites actually run, and adds compliance and scanning Elfsight doesn't. Every website widget is included on every plan, dropped in with one snippet.
Cookie consent Worldwide-compliant consent, no pageview caps. AI Chatbot Chat trained on your own content. Forms Build forms, route submissions to your CRM. Bookings Scheduling synced to your calendar. Popup Modals, slide-ins and exit intent. Chat Button WhatsApp, and more in one tap. Social Proof Real sales, signups and reviews, live. Reviews Google and more, in one widget. Social Instagram, TikTok and LinkedIn feeds. Banner Announcement and promo bars. Security ScanScan Find exposed keys and open databases, with a copy-paste fix. SEO and AEO ScanScan Rank on Google and get read by AI, with fixes.
Amabrik runs on a 7-day free trial with no credit card, then paid plans start at $29/mo ($23/mo billed annually). Amabrik doesn't offer a forever-free plan, but unlike Elfsight it never meters monthly views, so your widgets keep showing no matter how much traffic you get. Elfsight's Free plan costs nothing but is limited to 1 app, 1 widget, 200 views per month, and it carries a Powered-by Elfsight badge you can't remove.
No. Amabrik has unlimited views on every plan, so your bill never changes with traffic and a widget is never switched off for being seen too often. Elfsight meters monthly project views and counts every page load as a view, including the same visitor reloading. When you pass the cap (200 on Free, 5,000 on Basic), Elfsight deactivates the widget until the month resets or you upgrade.
Switch if you want flat pricing with no view caps, the full widget suite on every plan, and no Powered-by badge on any tier. Amabrik includes all 10 widgets plus a Security scan and an SEO/AEO scan that Elfsight has no equivalent for, and form and chatbot leads route straight to your own CRM instead of being held by the widget vendor. Amabrik's loader is under 5 KB and code-split, where an independent 2026 test measured Elfsight at about 188 KB of JavaScript with no CSS isolation.
Yes, by recreating each widget in Amabrik and replacing the embed snippet. Amabrik has no automatic Elfsight importer, but every widget starts from templates and a guided editor, so rebuilding an Instagram feed, a reviews block, or a popup takes minutes. You then swap the Elfsight snippet for the Amabrik one in the same spot on your page, with no plugin and no site rebuild.
For most sites, yes. A single Basic Elfsight app on low traffic starts around $6/mo, but once you need several widget types or have real traffic, Elfsight's per-app, per-view tiers add up fast and a widget switches off at the cap. Amabrik stays one flat price with unlimited views and all 10 widgets, starting at $29/mo for one site, so the more you run the more it saves you.
No. Amabrik has no Powered-by badge on any plan, including the $29 Starter plan, so there's no logo, link, or footer mention on your widgets. Elfsight shows its branding badge on the Free plan and only removes it once you move to a paid app.
Form, email-capture, and chatbot leads forward straight to your connected CRM, email tool, or webhook the instant they land. Amabrik never stores, logs, or sells captured leads, and there's no submissions table or leads viewer, so there's nothing on Amabrik's side to leak. The only visitor data Amabrik keeps is cookie-consent records, held for GDPR proof.
Yes. Amabrik ships a worldwide-compliant cookie-consent widget covering GDPR, UK GDPR, Swiss nLPD, CCPA, CPRA, and LGPD, with Google Consent Mode v2, Global Privacy Control for US visitors, and a 13-month consent log with CSV export and no raw IP stored. Elfsight doesn't offer a dedicated cookie-consent CMP widget.
Amabrik offers 10 widgets on every plan: cookie consent, banner, popup, forms, AI chatbot, reviews, social feeds, social proof, bookings, and a chat button. Every plan also includes both scanners, a Security scan and an SEO/AEO scan. Plans differ only by the number of sites you run: 1, 10, or 50.
No. The Amabrik Reviews widget shows reviews you add manually, with the real logos of platforms like Google, Trustpilot, Facebook, and Yelp, plus a Write a Review form. This is deliberate so you choose which reviews appear, rather than piping in an unfiltered live feed.
Elfsight's competitors include all-in-one widget platforms like Amabrik, POWR, and Common Ninja, plus single-purpose tools for each widget type. Among these Elfsight alternatives, Amabrik is the one with no monthly view caps, the full suite on every plan, and two scanners, Security and SEO/AEO, that the others don't offer.
