brand pricing · try & critique

One flat fee.
Nothing else for sale.

Willoah doesn't sell placement, boosted posts, or positive coverage. What a brand can buy is a fair shot at being tested by real users — and the honest reviews that follow.

flat fee
$299USD · per product · no recurring charges

Paid one time to add your product to the Try & Critique pool. The fee buys the opportunity to be reviewed — full stop. It doesn't buy visibility, ranking, or a guarantee that anyone will love it.

what the fee buys
  • One product listed in the Try & Critique pool.
  • Fair distribution to real users who ask to try it.
  • Honest Field Notes from anyone the site ships the product to.
  • A permanent product page you can link to.
what it does not buy
  • Any placement in The Grove, search, or category feeds.
  • Any ranking, boost, or visibility beyond this section.
  • Any preview, approval, or edit power over reviews.
  • Any ability to remove or bury negative reviews.
  • A guaranteed positive outcome — critical Field Notes stay.

How it works

  1. 1
    Apply

    Fill out the short form with your product, photo, and category. The site owner reviews personally.

  2. 2
    Approved & paid

    If approved, you settle the flat fee out-of-band and the product goes live in the Try & Critique pool.

  3. 3
    Users ask to try

    Real Willoah users request the product. The site owner picks a fair set of recipients.

  4. 4
    Honest reviews

    Recipients plant a branch labeled "Gifted to me" — the label is locked so the disclosure is automatic and public.

  5. 5
    That's it

    Nothing about the review is negotiable, editable, or removable by you. Critical reviews stay. Willoah moderates only for abuse.

plain-language rules

Nothing here is negotiable, and applying means agreeing to all of it.

  • · Reviews go live without brand preview or approval.
  • · Willoah will never remove a merely-negative review on a brand's behalf.
  • · Try & Critique reviews are treated identically to organic branches in every ranking or trust signal.
  • · A brand that pressures a reviewer forfeits its listing and its fee.
  • · No hidden fees, no upgrades. This is the only paid product on Willoah for brands. Any sponsored content elsewhere is always clearly labeled.

Applying is free. The flat fee is only settled after the site owner approves the product.
