At the beginning of the Deeal launch, I thought it would be a great investment. However, after we secured the deal and passed the 60-day refund warranty, we discovered the true nature of Lindo.ai. It has one of the worst customer support services, and their platform is buggy. For instance, I built a website in French with the correct settings, but the final result was an Arabic website. I contacted customer support but received no positive feedback. I don't recommend using this tricky and buggy software; it's a waste of time and effort.
Do not trust your Business in their hands they will scam you!
They lied about the features that would be included. At the time of the deal, they only had one Pro tier, and now it's the lowest. You can't even duplicate pages and other basic features without upgrading. It was advertised as a white-label website builder and agency tool, but now you need to pay for that. They thought they could get LTD buyers and turn them into MRR.
We are investing in something that is not yet complete
We invested because we thought the service would get better in the future.
It is a venture investment. If you are going to pursue only your own interests without distributing profits to investors, you should at least buy up the securities.
I absolutely hate writing reviews like this. So conflicted. Caveat emptor to anyone purchasing an LTD from a founder READ the terms and conditions CLOSELY (this is in NO WAY AppSumo's fault!).
Yes, they are absolutely sticking to the terms of the LTD, and while have been (IMO) minimal updates to the builder, there is simply no way (as far as I can tell) to produce a product for a client and expect to bill them for it from the app. Every time I attempt to produce an invoice, I get an error stating the required permission is only available with the "Elite paid plan," Regardless of the tier level purchased through AppSumo. It's interesting, because it requires little for Lindo to pass along the Stripe token and authenticate to an existing Stripe account. They could arguably increase their take in the form of a commission or upcharge on the processing fees. Nevertheless it's not that big of a deal for me as I bill my client work through other means.
The naming conventions to get whitelabling to work are at best convoluted, requiring 8 DNS zone entries to get the whitelabling to work, which is fine except that communications email can only come from the app domain itself and not from a regular email channel I use to communicate with my clients.
The builder contains very little control over the page layout without having to regenerate the page through a gen AI query.
All of complaints with the T&Cs could be overlooked, if the product just didn't feel so immature.
SO as it stands, without 'upgrading' to some other paid plan, the purchased AS plan is only useful for little more than producing landing pages.
I only purchase this because the export feature is available and now this is completely removed in less than a year. If you search the Questions section, Lindo.Ai did promise export feature will be available for ALL AppSumo plan. Now they asking us to sign up a 140/month ELITE plan. Really hope AppSumo is doing something about this.
We share this same sentiment as so many others, which you can find in the Reviews AND Questions here.
It's super shady to know that you're going to be dangling a bunch of new carrots in front of those Sumolings who supported you here, and then tell them they can have it for the "small monthly fee" of $139.90/month!!! that's insane! And you advertise this "Exclusive Sumoling" pricing on the billing page as if it's some special deal for sumolings when it's just your standard discounted "Annual" pricing amount... which actually shows up cheaper on you Pricing page, at $139.50 😝
I already paid $500. No I'm not paying you more for basic features.
I really regret buying this. The software is basically good for landing pages but it lacks any sort of content management...even basic things like having a universal header or footer for pages. And now I find out after spending $500 some dollars on Tier 5 you want me to pay another $95/month (which is going to go up in a few weeks) just to EXPORT and backup my websites? When some of your current functionality doesn't even work that well? No, no, no. Whoever came up with this idea needs to be fired.
The issue is simple, paywalling essential features
I got it, you kept your pro plan the same.
The problem here is some essential tools (downloading websites) are locked behind a paywall. I think the issue here is just that, if a client wants to change agency, why should i pay an extra to let him do that? it is literally consumers right in lots of country to have the ability to change provider. I mean, me, the guy who made the website, should pay if my client wants to migrate?
I'll take the elite plan anyway, as they still mantained their promises. It's a great site builder (they managed to add lots of features after months). For everyone that is reviewing this product as scam, it is not. They gave you what they said.
Yeah, i am also pissed that i have to change to a "subscription based" plan as an early adopter (of tier 5, so you already got 400/500$ from me), and i agree that 50% discount is not the freshest discount for a guy that believed in you.
I may be more pissed for the paywalled essential features, as said, like website export and (you could argue, as i remember that they promise that) the billing for the client. My opinion here, from a consumer to a developer of the website, is trust. You broke that for lots of customers. And i get it, you can't keep up with "one-time" costs with something like that. But cmon, you clearly know where is the problem with this move, the trust of your customer.
Subscription based is a disease that the whole world has, and appsumo *should* be the place to avoid that.
I hope they move some essential feature to the pro back, then i'll change for the better this review.
Supporting the Elite Plan: A Bright Future for Our Community!
I want to start by saying how amazing the new Elite Plan is! I’m thrilled that this company is taking steps to secure funding through this initiative, which will benefit everyone who supports them. Their commitment to innovation and quality is evident, and it’s a direction that I believe will lead to a sustainable future.
To clarify and provide firsthand insight into the situation regarding the bad reviews, I found some important information on the company's website that I believe will be helpful for everyone. It clearly states that the Pro Plan has not changed, and their commitment to continuous improvement remains strong.
Here’s what they say:
1. The Pro Plan Remains Unchanged There has been a misconception that the Pro Plan name has changed or been altered. Let us be clear: the Pro Plan is still the Pro Plan. There has been no name change or loss of features. To reference the deal terms clearly: "All future Pro Plan updates" have been honored and continue to be delivered. We've rolled out over 100 updates that directly improve the Pro Plan, including:
40+ new blocks for website customization Advanced AI features for easier site-building New integration options Expanded website settings and more Screenshot reference:
Deal Page; Features included: https://prnt.sc/dPUZaX7v95E Deal Page; Terms and Conditions: https://prnt.sc/qWsHQ6JLG6f 2. Commitment to Continuous Improvement The deal also specified that users would receive "All future Pro Plan updates," and we have honored that promise consistently. This commitment is not only part of our core value but is clearly stated in the original deal you agreed to: "If the plan name changes, the deal will be mapped to the new Plan name with all accompanying updates."
However, to be clear, the Pro Plan name has not changed, and it retains all its original features and updates. This mapping clause was included for transparency, ensuring that you would not lose any benefits if we ever renamed or restructured plans in the future.
We have also introduced additional plans, like the Elite Plan, which is geared toward agencies and users requiring extra features. But upgrading is entirely optional, and the Pro Plan remains available to all early adopters with its original terms intact.
Conclusion: A Bright Future Ahead As someone who truly appreciates what this company offers, I wholeheartedly support their journey toward sustainability and growth. The introduction of an Elite Plan reflects their understanding of user needs and their commitment to catering to a diverse audience. I believe this approach will not only help them secure necessary funding but also pave the way for further innovation and improvement.
While it's natural for users to express their concerns, I encourage everyone to consider the positive strides this company is making. I’m excited for what's to come and will continue to support them wholeheartedly!
I was trying to deploy my website, and to my surprise, the new custom domain section no longer allows me to choose options A and B for redirection. My only options are C and D, even though I'm on the max plan. Since my domain provider does not support the methods mentioned in C and D, it says that I need to contact Lindo support to get a new A record.
However, when I emailed them, they haven't replied to me for about two weeks now. I tried their chatbox, but it's just a templated AI response. I don't know where else to contact them as I need to deploy the website. I hope they will be able to fix their support team as I have high hopes for Lindo.
Otherwise, they should open options A and B for custom domains.

Hi,
We added an article to the connect domain to show how you can do the redirect yourself with your DNS provider 10 days ago. We are trying to answer all Sumo questions with full priority. We always are here to help you regardless you upgrade your account or not.
This company is 100% a bait and switch. I should have access to two websites per the AppSumo Tier 1 agreement, but whenever I try to do anything it prompts me to upgrade to the elite plan. They even changed the original website I created when I first was playing around with this product to be just a button to upgrade my plan.
Heed my warning: Do not do business with this company!
We all Sumo-Lings had high expectations of Lindo AI and invested our money in a product that, on paper, looked extremely promising. Unfortunately, the platform proved to be what it is: limited, full of bugs, without a solid roadmap and with bland and spent updates. After almost 9 months, it still lacks basic tools of a proper editor for those working in this field. And then the coup de grace: with a play on words, we were persuaded to buy an agency TIER, when it lacks everything an agency needs to work with clients-and these features are now offered with a recurring EXTRA plan, to take more money from us Sumo-Lings who despite everything, put our trust in the product and did not ask for a refund because we had believed these false promises. Unfortunately, I feel I cannot recommend Lindo AI in any way. (And you can also see this from the standard, detached message that the Lindo team is leaving to all the negative comments, posted by disappointed customers).
I had high expectations about this product though I was a bit nervous to invest 500$ to Lindo Ai and that's why I really thought through before purchasing the highest Tier 5. It seemed promising though quite unfinished product when I bought it.
It was not a problem for me to wait updates at that time, but still after 8 months basic but more refined editing possibilities are still missing - such as ability ability to edit font sizes, color schemes... + create templates and many more. Basic things that one need when designing sites for a client. Lindo Team really fooled us agencies to think that we as early adopters meant something to them and we could have the possibility to enjoy updates and features which they implied here in appsumo (for example AI-powered block generator, blocks, agency version...) - and also assured those features to be included to their deal (at least Tier 5).
And now suddenly I find my account to be an a lowest plan (?? what a joke) and feel pressured to buy monthly paid elite plan. They just wanted to collect our money and "And laugh on the way to the bank" as saying goes here in Finland.
Unfortunately, I Can't recommend Lindo (ai / team) in any way. How you can trust them after this?
Lindo.ai Just Another Unethical Bait And Switch Company!
I purchased the top tier plan because I believed this website builder would be an industry leader.
Imagine my shock when I opened an email from Lindo.ai saying I needed to pay an additional $99 a month or $199 a month if I didn't upgrade right away to get the features I was lead to believe I was getting in the first place!
My choices now are to give them more money when I can no longer trust them, when and what will the next "upsell" be, or to support a company I can trust and values it's clients?
I guess it's time to put all the Appsumo buyers out to pasture and move onto greener fields!
I paid $299 for Tier 3 and really looked forward to seeing what this app could do. Created my website--but guess what? I can't even view it, edit it, NOTHING because it's been DEACTIVATED until I UPGRADE TO PRO? I spent $299 for ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! If this isn't a TOTAL RIP-OFF, I don't know what is? Where is Appsumo in this mess? FUMING! https://sharemyimage.com/image/DEACTIVATED.lGKI8g

Hi,
When you purchased the deal, it came with 25 website credits. To upgrade a website, simply click the upgrade button, and it will use the credits you already paid for. This means you can upgrade 25 websites.
So, this is not a rip-off! You just need to use the credits to upgrade the website.
In the future, I invite you to reach out to support if you have any problems so we can guide you.
You spend hard-earned money on software that doesn't even let you into the system. Do yourself a favour and stay away from this software before it eventually closes down from lack of service. I have had an account for a while, but only use it occasionally. Every time I try to log in it won't work with a microsoft login. I finally got an answer from Saeed after it eventually let me in after 2 weeks and I was able to contact for help. (There is nowhere to contact these guys if you cant log into the system.) Saeed said oh yes we have problems with Microsoft. Well then fix your problem or start refunding people on Appsumo. Tired of asking to get into software that i paid top tier for.
I'm writing this review with a heavy heart, as I've never felt compelled to write a negative review before. Unfortunately, my experience with Lindo.ai has been so disappointing that I feel obligated to share my perspective. The product, once available on AppSumo, has fallen far short of its initial promises.
Key features advertised during the campaign, such as exporting your entire website, utilizing an AI-powered block generator, will now be locked behind a paywall (Elite subscription). This is a blatant betrayal of the trust of customers who invested in this product based on those promises. A mere 50% discount on the Elite tier does not soften this blow, nor makes it attractive. We already payed for this product...
The slow update cycle leaves users waiting for essential features that hinder website creation. Additionally, many basic design features, like the ability to edit font sizes for example, remain missing. The sudden introduction of a seemingly forced subscription tier feels like a deceptive tactic to extract more money from loyal customers who backed this company on AppSumo.
I strongly advise anyone considering Lindo.ai to steer clear. This company has demonstrated a disregard for its customer base and a willingness to prioritize profit over delivering on its commitments and promises.
Such a disappointment and waste of time. I love Appsumo but please screen these money grabbing companies more thoroughly in the future. This is not healthy for your company either.
Like a previous person wrote on here. Lindo.ai, please make this right or give a refund.
A play on words to fool the Sumo-lings So all the Sumo-lings who gave you the utmost confidence are now sending you a clear signal of discontent and disappointment, are they crazy?
Let's face it, you sold a platform with the implicit promise that it could be used at the agency level, but you conveniently avoided mentioning the lack of the simplest requirements necessary to operate it well (such as limiting the creation of multiple websites by the client, without any control or permission).
You also anticipated in an e-mail from you at the time that this feature was planned and would be implemented. Here is what you did. Quite a tease.
Unethical Changes to Plans – Deceptive Practices at LindoAI
I purchased the Tier 5 Pro Plan back in February 2024, expecting that LindoAI would uphold their promise of continuously improving this plan with new features and enhancements. However, the recent changes they’ve made have been not only disappointing but also deeply unethical.
LindoAI introduced a new "Elite" tier, which includes all of the enhancements that we Pro Plan supporters were originally told would come to our plan. Instead of upgrading the Pro Plan, they’ve downgraded it to the most basic offering. All new features and advancements are now locked behind higher-priced tiers like the Elite Plan, essentially forcing those of us who were loyal from the start into paying more if we want to keep up with the latest functionalities.
Many of us chose the Tier 5 plan because it was marketed as a top-tier solution. The abrupt shift in focus to newer, more expensive plans feels like a bait-and-switch. It’s disheartening to see the Pro Plan being treated as a second-class service now. The actions of LindoAI show a complete lack of regard for their early supporters, who have helped build the platform's success.
It’s clear that the company is prioritizing profit over user trust, and I can see from feedback shared by other Tier 5 subscribers that I am not alone in feeling this way. Several long-time supporters have voiced their frustration about how LindoAI has backtracked on their original promises, making it seem like the only path forward is paying for even more expensive plans.
For anyone considering this platform, beware of their deceptive pricing tactics. They’re willing to leave their loyal user base behind in the pursuit of squeezing more money from us.
To everyone here leaving a review, they just copy and paste the same answer. They say they are standing by their commitment to include only updates to the Pro Plan. But the issue is that they DID NOT update the Pro Plan and added all the enhancements.o new tiers that did not existed before. VERY UNETHICAL.

Lindo Team really fooled us agencies to think that we as early adopters meant something to them and we could have the possibility to enjoy updates and features which they implied here in appsumo (for example AI-powered block generator, blocks, agency version...) - and also assured those features to be included to their deal (at least Tier 5).
And now suddenly I find my account to be an a lowest plan (?? what a joke) and feel pressured to buy monthly paid elite plan. They just wanted to collect our money and "And laugh on the way to the bank" as saying goes here in Finland.
Unfortunately, I Can't recommend Lindo (ai / team) in any way. How you can trust them after this?

Lindo.ai Just Another Unethical Bait And Switch Company!
I purchased the top tier plan because I believed this website builder would be an industry leader.
Imagine my shock when I opened an email from Lindo.ai saying I needed to pay an additional $99 a month or $199 a month if I didn't upgrade right away to get the features I was lead to believe I was getting in the first place!
My choices now are to give them more money when I can no longer trust them, when and what will the next "upsell" be, or to support a company I can trust and values it's clients?
I guess it's time to put all the Appsumo buyers out to pasture and move onto greener fields!

Complete Rip-Off!
I paid $299 for Tier 3 and really looked forward to seeing what this app could do. Created my website--but guess what? I can't even view it, edit it, NOTHING because it's been DEACTIVATED until I UPGRADE TO PRO? I spent $299 for ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! If this isn't a TOTAL RIP-OFF, I don't know what is? Where is Appsumo in this mess? FUMING! https://sharemyimage.com/image/DEACTIVATED.lGKI8g

Sep 30, 2024Hi,
When you purchased the deal, it came with 25 website credits. To upgrade a website, simply click the upgrade button, and it will use the credits you already paid for. This means you can upgrade 25 websites.
So, this is not a rip-off! You just need to use the credits to upgrade the website.
In the future, I invite you to reach out to support if you have any problems so we can guide you.
Best,
Baback

pathetic company to do business with
You spend hard-earned money on software that doesn't even let you into the system. Do yourself a favour and stay away from this software before it eventually closes down from lack of service. I have had an account for a while, but only use it occasionally. Every time I try to log in it won't work with a microsoft login. I finally got an answer from Saeed after it eventually let me in after 2 weeks and I was able to contact for help. (There is nowhere to contact these guys if you cant log into the system.) Saeed said oh yes we have problems with Microsoft. Well then fix your problem or start refunding people on Appsumo. Tired of asking to get into software that i paid top tier for.

A Disappointing Betrayal
I'm writing this review with a heavy heart, as I've never felt compelled to write a negative review before. Unfortunately, my experience with Lindo.ai has been so disappointing that I feel obligated to share my perspective. The product, once available on AppSumo, has fallen far short of its initial promises.
Key features advertised during the campaign, such as exporting your entire website, utilizing an AI-powered block generator, will now be locked behind a paywall (Elite subscription). This is a blatant betrayal of the trust of customers who invested in this product based on those promises. A mere 50% discount on the Elite tier does not soften this blow, nor makes it attractive. We already payed for this product...
The slow update cycle leaves users waiting for essential features that hinder website creation. Additionally, many basic design features, like the ability to edit font sizes for example, remain missing. The sudden introduction of a seemingly forced subscription tier feels like a deceptive tactic to extract more money from loyal customers who backed this company on AppSumo.
I strongly advise anyone considering Lindo.ai to steer clear. This company has demonstrated a disregard for its customer base and a willingness to prioritize profit over delivering on its commitments and promises.
Such a disappointment and waste of time. I love Appsumo but please screen these money grabbing companies more thoroughly in the future. This is not healthy for your company either.
Like a previous person wrote on here. Lindo.ai, please make this right or give a refund.

A play on words to fool the Sumo-lings
A play on words to fool the Sumo-lings
So all the Sumo-lings who gave you the utmost confidence are now sending you a clear signal of discontent and disappointment, are they crazy?
Let's face it, you sold a platform with the implicit promise that it could be used at the agency level, but you conveniently avoided mentioning the lack of the simplest requirements necessary to operate it well (such as limiting the creation of multiple websites by the client, without any control or permission).
You also anticipated in an e-mail from you at the time that this feature was planned and would be implemented.
Here is what you did.
Quite a tease.

Unethical Changes to Plans – Deceptive Practices at LindoAI
I purchased the Tier 5 Pro Plan back in February 2024, expecting that LindoAI would uphold their promise of continuously improving this plan with new features and enhancements. However, the recent changes they’ve made have been not only disappointing but also deeply unethical.
LindoAI introduced a new "Elite" tier, which includes all of the enhancements that we Pro Plan supporters were originally told would come to our plan. Instead of upgrading the Pro Plan, they’ve downgraded it to the most basic offering. All new features and advancements are now locked behind higher-priced tiers like the Elite Plan, essentially forcing those of us who were loyal from the start into paying more if we want to keep up with the latest functionalities.
Many of us chose the Tier 5 plan because it was marketed as a top-tier solution. The abrupt shift in focus to newer, more expensive plans feels like a bait-and-switch. It’s disheartening to see the Pro Plan being treated as a second-class service now. The actions of LindoAI show a complete lack of regard for their early supporters, who have helped build the platform's success.
It’s clear that the company is prioritizing profit over user trust, and I can see from feedback shared by other Tier 5 subscribers that I am not alone in feeling this way. Several long-time supporters have voiced their frustration about how LindoAI has backtracked on their original promises, making it seem like the only path forward is paying for even more expensive plans.
For anyone considering this platform, beware of their deceptive pricing tactics. They’re willing to leave their loyal user base behind in the pursuit of squeezing more money from us.
To everyone here leaving a review, they just copy and paste the same answer. They say they are standing by their commitment to include only updates to the Pro Plan. But the issue is that they DID NOT update the Pro Plan and added all the enhancements.o new tiers that did not existed before. VERY UNETHICAL.
