Companies Using Elfsight
Our October 2026 crawl finds Elfsight on 176,213 live domains. Elfsight sells ready-made website widgets, such as Google reviews, Instagram feeds, popups and WhatsApp buttons, that a site owner adds with a short embed code; our category table files it under UI frameworks, which it isn't. Below is the list of companies that use Elfsight, with size, country, industry and stack. It includes Mahindra, France Télévisions, Hard Rock and UC San Diego Health.
The typical customer is small: 67.55% of matched companies have 1 to 10 employees. In a random sample of 40 live domains, Google Reviews was the widget we saw most, on 10 of the 23 sites where we could identify one. Big organisations use it differently, and on the large-company sites in our list nearly every widget was a social feed. Elfsight is 9th of 85 in UI & CSS Frameworks with 1.31%, a figure that only compares size.

Elfsight Usage Statistics
Elfsight reads 120,572 domains in June 2026, 128,634 in July, 159,034 in August, 174,329 in September and 176,213 in October. Read the jump from July to August with care. The set of domains we crawl turns over every month, with dead sites dropping out and newly found ones added, and the signals we detect Elfsight with have widened, so 39,828 of today's live domains were first seen in August alone. The line has flattened since: October is only 1,884 domains above September, and 15,360 live domains were first seen in September or October.

Which Countries Use Elfsight the Most?
Which countries use Elfsight the most? The United States, with 41,848 matched companies, then the United Kingdom (13,313), Australia (7,754), France (7,425), Germany (5,355) and Canada (4,678). The five English-speaking countries in the top 15 add up to 69,021, or 58.2% of the 118,505 companies we matched. France is the one to notice. Elfsight has one French company for every 5.6 American ones, while POWR's profile shows about one for every 24 (510 to 12,191).
Share of the 118,505 Elfsight domains we matched to a company record — 67.3% of the 176,213 we detect. Top 15 countries shown, so these do not sum to 100%. Domains with no matching company record are not represented here and skew small and independent.
Elfsight Market Share Among UI & CSS Frameworks
What is Elfsight's market share? 1.31% of UI & CSS Frameworks, 9th of the 85 technologies we track there, based on our live crawl at TechnologyChecker.io. Treat that as a size comparison only. The category is front-end frameworks and component libraries, and Elfsight is a widget service. Its real rivals, such as Tagembed, EmbedSocial, Juicer and Curator, sit in other categories, which is why this page has no competitor table. The closest like-for-like figure is POWR, whose profile counts 53,506 domains (August 2026); Elfsight's 176,213 is about 3.3 times that.
Elfsight Customers by Company Size & Age
What size companies use Elfsight? Mostly very small ones. 67.55% of matched companies with a known size have 1 to 10 employees and 22.81% have 11 to 50, so 90.36% have 50 staff or fewer. That's a smaller base than Google Maps' profile (65.36% at 1 to 10) and close to POWR's (72.32%). 728 companies have more than 1,000 staff, among them Mahindra, Hard Rock and Servier, and on their sites the widget is usually a social feed rather than reviews.
Company Size Distribution
Company Age (Founded Decade)
The largest group of matched companies was founded in the 2010s (37.57%), then the 2020s (20.95%) and the 2000s (17.2%). So 58.52% were founded in 2010 or later, a young base for a tool that small business owners set up themselves. There's an older tail as well: 2,734 companies (4.84%) date from before 1960, including IFF (1833), Auburn University (1856) and Scholastic (1920).
What Industries Use Elfsight the Most?
Construction leads at 6.17%, then Retail (5.28%), Real Estate (4.17%), Medical Practices (3.33%) and Hospitality (3.16%), based on our enriched company data. No industry reaches 6.2%, and the top ten add up to about 34%. These are local service businesses that win work on reputation, and a Google reviews widget was the most common Elfsight install in our random sample.
Construction companies using Elfsight are the largest group, 6,167 matched companies, and in our sample an Alabama insulation contractor and an Australian plumber both used it for Google reviews. Universities using Elfsight include UC San Diego on its health site, Auburn University on its student affairs site and the University of Memphis, each with an Instagram feed. Food companies on Elfsight include Levy Restaurants and Brazil's Seara, also with Instagram feeds.
Elfsight Customer Migration
Tech Stack of Elfsight-Powered Websites
Across live Elfsight domains, WordPress runs on 28.45% and Elementor on 13.09%. Then come Squarespace (9.96%), Shopify (9.81%), Webflow (7.03%) and Duda (4.99%), so no single builder carries Elfsight; owners add it to whatever they built on. Google Analytics is on 69.67% and Google Tag Manager on 69.39%. These shares are of the 176,080 domains in our cleaned live set.

Expert Analysis: Elfsight Growth Trends & Key Signals for Sales Teams in 2026

I work in product marketing, so when I opened Elfsight in our October 2026 crawl I wanted one thing first: what are these sites showing their visitors? A domain counts here when a page on it loads a script from elfsight.com or elfsightcdn.com, which every Elfsight widget does. That gives 176,213 live domains, 118,505 of them matched to a company. It's a count of sites, not of accounts or paid plans.
What the widgets are
I loaded 40 random live Elfsight domains in a browser and recorded which widget each one asked Elfsight's servers for. 36 opened. On 23 a widget rendered that we could identify, and the mix was lopsided: Google Reviews on 10, an Instagram, X or multi-network social feed on 7, and a popup, announcement bar, countdown timer or button on 4. One site ran an event calendar and one a store locator. Seven more loaded Elfsight's script without asking for a widget while we watched, two pointed at deleted widgets, and two had used up their monthly views.
The 50 companies listed on this page, most of them large, look nothing like that. On 32 of their sites a widget rendered, and 28 of the 32 were social feeds: Instagram feeds on 16 sites, multi-network feeds on 7 and LinkedIn feeds on 6, some sites running more than one. Not one showed Google reviews.
Sales signal: the list splits in two. A local business owner buys social proof for the homepage. A communications team at a large organisation buys a feed of its own posts. Pitch them separately.
Growth, and what it isn't
The chart reads 120,572 domains in June 2026, 128,634 in July, 159,034 in August, 174,329 in September and 176,213 in October. Don't read the August jump as a sales surge. The domains we crawl turn over every month, dead sites out and newly found ones in, and the signals we detect Elfsight with have widened, so 39,828 of today's live domains were first seen in August alone. Since then the line has flattened, with 15,360 first seen in September or October. Since March 2026, 21,918 domains have dropped Elfsight from at least one hostname, and 3,678 of those still ran it on another hostname when I checked.
"On a small business site, Elfsight is usually the Google reviews box. On a big organisation's site, it's usually an Instagram or LinkedIn feed. Same script, two different buyers." - Sophie Clarke, Product Marketing Manager at TechnologyChecker.io
Sales signal: treat Elfsight as a large, settled pool of about 176,000 sites. October added only 1,884 domains to September's figure, which doesn't support pitching it as a fast-growing segment.
Who the customers are
67.55% of matched companies with a known size have 1 to 10 employees and 22.81% have 11 to 50, so 90.36% have 50 staff or fewer. That's a smaller base than Google Maps' profile, at 65.36% in the smallest band, and close to POWR's 72.32%. They're young too: 37.57% were founded in the 2010s and 20.95% in the 2020s. The industry list reads like a high street, with construction (6.17%), retail (5.28%), real estate (4.17%), medical practices (3.33%) and hospitality (3.16%). Then there's a tail of 728 companies above 1,000 staff, including Mahindra, Hard Rock International, France Télévisions, Servier and PerkinElmer.
Sales signal: if you sell reputation management, booking tools or local SEO to service businesses, an Elfsight Google reviews widget marks an owner who already cares how reviews look on the site.
Where they are
The United States has 41,848 matched companies, the United Kingdom 13,313 and Australia 7,754. France is fourth with 7,425, ahead of Germany (5,355) and Canada (4,678). The five English-speaking countries in the top 15 account for 69,021 companies, 58.2% of the matched base. France is where Elfsight differs from its nearest like-for-like rival: one French company for every 5.6 American ones, against roughly one for every 24 on POWR's profile (510 to 12,191). Brazil (3,337) and India (2,690) are the largest markets outside Europe and the English-speaking world.
Sales signal: an English-language campaign covers most of this list, but a French or Spanish one isn't wasted. France and Spain (2,392) hold 9,817 matched companies between them.
Rivals and switching
This page has no competitor table, because Elfsight's real rivals sit in other categories of ours. The overlaps are small. 406 domains run Elfsight and Tagembed together, 187 run Elfsight and EmbedSocial, 108 Elfsight and SnapWidget, 69 Elfsight and Curator and 52 Elfsight and Juicer. None of those pairs passes our switching tests, because most domains ever seen with both still run both. The small flows lean Elfsight's way. Since March, 118 domains dropped one of those five feed tools while keeping Elfsight, and 49 went the other way; Tagembed accounts for 40 against 13, and EmbedSocial for 44 against 11.
"Elfsight's rivals barely share customers with it. When a site dropped one tool and kept the other, it kept Elfsight more often, 118 times to 49 since March." - Sophie Clarke, Product Marketing Manager at TechnologyChecker.io
Sales signal: for a rival, the Elfsight base is nearly untouched ground. Only 406 of the 176,213 domains also run Tagembed, so lead with a capability Elfsight lacks rather than a switching story.
The stack around it
WordPress runs on 28.45% of live Elfsight domains and Elementor on 13.09%. Squarespace (9.96%), Shopify (9.81%), Webflow (7.03%) and Duda (4.99%) follow, which fits Elfsight's list of 113 supported platforms: no single builder owns its distribution. Google Analytics is on 69.67% and Google Tag Manager on 69.39%. These shares are of the 176,080 domains in our cleaned live set.
Sales signal: agencies that build on Squarespace, Webflow or Duda will meet Elfsight on client sites often enough to need a view on it, whether they resell it or replace it.
The free plan's cap
Elfsight's pricing page (checked 12 October 2026) lists a Free plan with one widget and 200 views a month. Basic, Pro and Premium cost $5, $10 and $20 a month billed yearly for one widget type, with 5,000, 50,000 and 150,000 views; the 96 Apps Pack costs $15, $30 or $60. The page says that going over the monthly limit temporarily deactivates the widget, and we saw it happen. Two sites in the random sample and four of the 50 listed companies, among them Davidson Hospitality Group and the University of Ghana's research directorate, got a views-limit message instead of a widget.
Sales signal: a widget switched off by its view cap leaves a visible gap on a live site. That's an upgrade conversation for Elfsight, and an opening for a rival with a larger free tier.
Key takeaways
1. 176,213 live domains, for a widget service our category table files under UI & CSS Frameworks, where it's 9th of 85.
2. 90.36% of matched companies have 50 staff or fewer, and Google Reviews is the widget we saw most on small sites.
3. Large organisations use it for social feeds: 28 of the 32 listed company sites where a widget rendered.
4. Overlap with Tagembed, EmbedSocial, Juicer, Curator and SnapWidget is a few hundred domains at most.
5. The monthly view cap switches widgets off on live sites; we caught six doing it.
How to use this list
Filter by company size first, because the 1 to 10 band and the 1,000-plus band are different buyers with different widgets. For the full list of 176,213 Elfsight domains with company, size and stack data, explore TechnologyChecker.io.
Frequently Asked Questions
Who uses Elfsight?
Mostly small businesses that want reviews or social posts on their site without writing code. Our October 2026 crawl finds Elfsight on 176,213 live domains, and 67.55% of matched companies have 1 to 10 employees. Construction, retail and real estate lead the industries. Larger users include Mahindra, France Télévisions, Hard Rock and UC San Diego Health, which mostly run Instagram or LinkedIn feeds.
How many customers does Elfsight have?
Elfsight's site says more than 3 million users trust it, a count of users rather than websites. Our October 2026 crawl finds its widgets live on 176,213 domains, 118,505 of them matched to a company. Since March 2026, 21,918 domains have dropped it from at least one hostname, though 3,678 of those still ran it on another hostname when we checked.
What is Elfsight's market share?
In our data Elfsight holds 1.31% of UI & CSS Frameworks, 9th of 85 technologies, on 176,213 domains. That category is front-end frameworks, and Elfsight is a widget service, so the share only compares sizes. A like-for-like rival makes it clearer: POWR's profile counts 53,506 domains, so Elfsight runs on about 3.3 times as many sites.
Which countries use Elfsight the most?
The United States, with 41,848 matched companies, then the United Kingdom (13,313), Australia (7,754), France (7,425), Germany (5,355) and Canada (4,678). English-speaking countries hold 58.2% of the matched base. France stands out: there's one French Elfsight company for every 5.6 American ones, while POWR's profile shows about one for every 24.
What size companies use Elfsight?
Very small ones, mostly. 67.55% of matched companies with a known size have 1 to 10 employees and 22.81% have 11 to 50, so 90.36% have 50 staff or fewer. 728 have more than 1,000. The big ones use Elfsight differently: on 28 of the 32 large-company sites in our list where a widget rendered, it was a social feed, not reviews.
How old are companies that use Elfsight?
Young, on the whole. Among matched companies with a known founding year, 37.57% were founded in the 2010s and 20.95% in the 2020s, so 58.52% date from 2010 or later. The 2000s add 17.2%. There's an older tail too: 2,734 companies (4.84%) were founded before 1960, including IFF (1833) and Scholastic (1920).
What is the ideal customer profile for Elfsight?
The ideal Elfsight customer is: Company Size: 1-10 employees (67.55%), then 11-50, Location: United States, then UK, Australia, France, Founded: 2010-2019 (37.57%), Industry: Construction, retail, real estate, clinics, Typical use: Google reviews or a social feed on a builder site — based on our analysis of 118,505 enriched companies at TechnologyChecker.io.
What are the best alternatives to Elfsight?
Common Ninja and POWR sell similar multi-widget catalogues; POWR's profile counts 53,506 domains. For social feeds, Tagembed, EmbedSocial, Juicer, Curator and SnapWidget are the usual names, and for reviews, Trustindex. None shares many sites with Elfsight: Tagembed has the most, 406 domains running both. Since March, 118 domains dropped one of those five feed tools and kept Elfsight, and 49 did the opposite.
How much does Elfsight cost?
Elfsight's pricing page lists a Free plan, then Basic at $5 a month, Pro at $10 and Premium at $20 for one widget type, billed yearly ($6, $12 and $24 month to month). They allow 5,000, 50,000 and 150,000 widget views a month. The 96 Apps Pack, covering every widget, costs $15, $30 or $60 a month billed yearly. Checked 12 October 2026.
Is Elfsight really free?
There's a Free plan with no time limit, but it's small: one widget, 200 views a month and Elfsight branding. Elfsight's pricing page says that going over the monthly limit temporarily deactivates the widget. We saw that on live sites: two of 36 random Elfsight sites that loaded returned a views-limit message instead of a widget. Checked 12 October 2026.
Is Elfsight safe to use?
Elfsight is a no-code widget company, Elfsight, SL, headquartered in Andorra, per its About page. A widget loads Elfsight's script from static.elfsight.com and fetches its content from core.service.elfsight.com, so every page view calls Elfsight's servers. List it in your privacy notice like any third-party script. Paid plans come with a 14-day full refund, according to its pricing page.
What is Elfsight used for?
Mostly reviews and social feeds. In a random sample of 40 live Elfsight domains, 23 showed a widget we could identify: Google Reviews on 10, an Instagram, X or multi-network social feed on 7, and a popup, announcement bar, countdown timer or button on 4. Elfsight lists more than 90 widgets in all, including an AI chatbot, forms and event calendars.
What is static Elfsight?
static.elfsight.com is the address Elfsight serves its platform script from. Your embed code loads it, and the script then fetches each widget's settings and content from Elfsight's other servers. It's part of Elfsight's normal embed, not a separate product. In our sample of 36 Elfsight sites that loaded, 27 called static.elfsight.com, and 12 loaded it from apps.elfsight.com.
What is a good alternative to Elfsight's Google Review widget?
EmbedSocial sells Google reviews sliders, Trustindex sells review widgets covering 137 review platforms, and Elfsight's own All-in-One Reviews widget pulls from Google, Facebook, Amazon and more than 20 other sources. Overlap is small: 187 domains run Elfsight and EmbedSocial together. Google reviews matter to these buyers, though; it was the widget we saw most on small Elfsight sites, 10 of 23 we identified.
Does Elfsight work with WordPress, Shopify and Squarespace?
Yes. Elfsight lists 113 platforms it supports, WordPress, Shopify, Squarespace, Wix and Webflow among them. Our stack data shows that spread. WordPress runs on 28.45% of live Elfsight domains, Squarespace on 9.96%, Shopify on 9.81%, Webflow on 7.03% and Duda on 4.99%, so most installs happen on site builders rather than custom code.
