Beamer
A changelog and in-app notification widget that lets SaaS teams announce new features, collect feedback, and run NPS surveys from one panel, without building a custom announcement system.

Description
Shipping a new feature is one thing — getting users to actually notice it is another. Most product updates die quietly in a changelog nobody reads. Beamer works like a notification bell for your own product: a small widget users already look at (think of it like the little red dot on a phone app) that surfaces what's new, collects a reaction, and can ask a quick satisfaction question, all without the user leaving the app.
Beamer is a customer communication platform built around an embeddable widget: an in-app changelog feed, push-style notifications, NPS surveys, and lightweight onboarding tours, all served from one panel and reusable across 3,000+ integrations (Slack, Intercom, Zapier, etc.). Segmentation lets teams target specific messages to specific user cohorts rather than blasting everyone. Pricing starts free up to 1,000 monthly active users, then scales through Starter ($59/mo, 5,000 MAU), Pro ($119/mo, 10,000 MAU), to Scale ($299/mo, 50,000 MAU), with Feedback and NPS as $99/mo add-ons each. It's used by product and marketing teams at companies like TripAdvisor, Blackboard, and Linktree, mostly to drive feature adoption and reduce churn from users who simply didn't know a feature existed.
💬 Our review
The short version: if you just need users to notice what shipped this week — a lightweight changelog widget, not a full communication suite — Beamer's free tier and $59/month entry point are proportionate to that job, unlike heavier platforms built for enterprise multi-channel rollouts.
Beamer's real strength is bundling changelog, notifications, and NPS into one widget with 3,000+ integrations, which covers most small SaaS teams' needs out of the box. The catch is that Feedback and NPS are gated behind $99/month add-ons each — so a team that wants the full package (announcements + feedback + satisfaction scoring) ends up closer to $260/month at the Pro tier than the advertised $119, which changes the math against AnnounceKit's bundled mid-tier plans. Compare directly against AnnounceKit if feedback collection is a must-have from day one, and against LaunchNotes only if you're managing multiple products and need enterprise-grade multi-channel distribution — Beamer is overkill-free for a single product's changelog, but not the cheapest path once feedback tooling is required.
