Show HN: Shoulditrustit.com – a simple, early alternative to Trustpilot

https://www.shouldItrustIt.com
1•franbetteo•1h ago
I built a very early MVP of an alternative to Trustpilot over the weekend.

The motivation: review platforms increasingly feel adversarial to both users and companies, with opaque moderation and pay-to-play dynamics. I wanted to explore a simpler, more transparent starting point.

What it does today:

Anyone can leave reviews

Companies can claim their profile

No complicated verification yet, intentionally kept simple

Why participate early:

Early companies get a free account forever (grandfathered)

Claimed profiles get a backlink (currently low value, but potentially useful if this grows)

The whole project only works if the review dataset exists

What I’m asking:

Leave reviews (for listed or unlisted companies)

Claim your company if relevant

If you want to help more, a backlink helps early traction

Monetization (only if it works):

Very cheap base plan for companies (<$20/month)

Premium features later if there’s real demand

Early users keep free access

Planned next steps:

Company responses to reviews

Invite links

Better company customization (logos, etc.)

Google / OAuth login

This is intentionally rough and early. I’m mostly looking for feedback on:

incentives

trust mechanics

what should not exist in a review platform

Happy to hear thoughts.
