Start with Wiremo — highest vibe code, weakest moat.
Delighted
Delighted is fundamentally a scheduled transactional email and web popup system that collects a 0-10 integer and calculates simple percentages. Building an in-house alternative takes a weekend using Resend, a Postgres database, and a basic dashboard. You pay Delighted hundreds of dollars per month primarily for pre-packaged helpdesk integrations and zero-code setup.
