Pricing entry tiers: Custom Google Reviews at Free trial available, Rapid Reviews: Product Reviews at Free trial available.

Rapid Reviews: Product Reviews has the larger user base (116 reviews vs 0), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. Custom Google Reviews's smaller cohort can be an advantage for niche workflows where the bigger app has accumulated bloat.
