ProveSource is a solid social proof tool that shows live activity notifications, and it prices every plan by your monthly unique visitors, from 1,000 on the free plan up to 500,000. Amabrik shows the same real sales and signup notifications with no visitor meter on any plan, no badge on any plan, and nine more widgets your site actually needs. For most sites, a flat price beats a traffic meter.
Live notifications that never meter your traffic, inside the full website toolkit, vs a single tool priced by your monthly visitors.
ProveSource prices every plan by your monthly unique visitors: 1,000 on the free plan, 20,000 on Starter, 50,000 on Growth, 200,000 on Monster, and 500,000 on Gorilla. Cross the line and you either move up a tier or your notifications stop showing. Amabrik has no visitor cap and no pageview cap on any plan. You pay one flat price, so a viral week or a busy sale never triggers an upgrade and never throttles your social proof.
Amabrik shows a notification only when a real event comes in: a purchase, a signup, a review, or a custom event you send. It never invents a name, never randomizes a sale, and shows nothing at all when you have sent nothing. Events flow through to the toast and are not stored, so there is no second copy of your customer data sitting on our servers. The moment a visitor can tell a notification is fake, it does the opposite of its job, which is why the widget is fed only by your own data. The US FTC also bans fabricated activity outright.
ProveSource keeps its Powered by badge on the free plan and only removes it once you reach the Starter plan at $24 a month. Amabrik puts no badge or logo on any widget, on any plan, including the entry plan. Your notifications look like your own site from the first day.
ProveSource only does social proof notifications. Amabrik's single snippet also adds cookie consent, a banner, popups, forms, an AI chatbot, reviews, social feeds, bookings, and a chat button, plus a Security scan and an SEO/AEO scan. One bill and one script for every widget your site is missing.
You feed Amabrik from a webhook (Stripe checkouts are parsed for you, or POST a small JSON for WooCommerce, PayPal and Zapier), a one line Amabrik.event() call on your success page, or your approved reviews. Each event can carry a location and a product detail, so a toast reads "Someone in Paris just bought the Pro plan" instead of a bare line.
To be fair, ProveSource also shows a live visitor counter, a combined counter that totals actions over 24 hours or 7 days, and a social follower counter. Amabrik shows individual real event toasts (a purchase, a signup, a review, a custom event), not running totals or visitor counts. If a live counter is central to your plan, ProveSource has it natively. If honest one at a time notifications fit your site, Amabrik does that inside the full widget suite.

ProveSource is a standalone social proof tool. Amabrik gives you the same live notifications plus nine more widgets and two scanners from one snippet, all with no badge.
Amabrik is a strong ProveSource alternative for sites that want live social proof without a traffic meter. ProveSource prices every plan by monthly unique visitors, from 1,000 on the free plan to 500,000 on Gorilla, and keeps its badge on the free plan. Amabrik shows the same real purchases, signups and reviews as live toasts, with no visitor cap and no badge on any plan, and it bundles nine more widgets plus two scanners on one bill. For most sites, that flat price and full toolkit make Amabrik the better fit.
Amabrik is $59 a year for one site, or $99 once for unlimited sites, after a 7 day free trial with no card. ProveSource has a free plan up to 1,000 monthly visitors, then Starter at $24 a month billed yearly (20,000 visitors), Growth at $45, Monster at $91, and Gorilla at $183, each covering more monthly visitors. Amabrik's price never moves with your traffic, and every plan already includes all ten widgets and both scanners.
Yes. ProveSource caps the monthly unique visitors each plan will show notifications to: 1,000 on the free plan, 20,000 on Starter, 50,000 on Growth, 200,000 on Monster, and 500,000 on Gorilla. Go past your tier and you either upgrade or your notifications stop. Amabrik has no visitor or pageview cap on any plan, so your social proof keeps running no matter how busy the month gets.
Every Amabrik notification is a real event. The widget only ever shows events you send in, so with none it shows nothing. There is no fake stream mode and Amabrik never invents a name or a purchase. Each toast is a genuine purchase, signup, review, or custom event from your own store or app, and nothing is stored on our side. Faking activity is also against the law in some places: the US FTC bans fabricated reviews and testimonials outright.
No, and it's worth being direct about. ProveSource can show a live visitor counter and a combined counter that totals actions over 24 hours, 7 days or 30 days. Amabrik shows individual real event toasts (a purchase, a signup, a review, a custom event), not a running total or a live count. If a visitor counter is central to your plan, ProveSource has it natively. If honest one at a time notifications fit your site, Amabrik does that inside the full widget suite.
Three ways, and you can mix them. Paste the widget's private webhook URL into Stripe, WooCommerce, PayPal or Zapier so each real sale or signup posts an event, and Stripe checkouts are parsed for you. Call Amabrik.event({ type: "signup" }) on your own success page. Or turn on the switch that shows recent approved reviews from your Reviews widget. ProveSource instead leans on its own platform integrations and can pull reviews from Google, Facebook and Trustpilot.
Amabrik shows no badge at all. It puts no Powered by logo or link on any widget, on any plan, including the entry plan. ProveSource keeps its badge on the free plan and only removes it once you reach the Starter plan at $24 a month.
Switch if you're tired of your bill climbing with your traffic, because Amabrik has no visitor caps and one flat price. Switch if you want your notifications to carry no third party badge from the first day. And switch if your site needs more than social proof, since the same Amabrik snippet also adds consent, popups, forms, an AI chatbot, bookings, reviews, social feeds and a chat button, plus a security scan and an SEO/AEO scan. That mix is what makes Amabrik the ProveSource alternative most sites should pick.
