Tribe, TexAu, Brizy Cloud & Endorsal: Expiring Deals Reviewed
Four AppSumo lifetime deals are about to expire. Here's a breakdown of TexAu, Tribe, Brizy Cloud, and Endorsal — who should buy, who should pass, and who should stack to the moon.
Four Deals, One Deadline: What's Leaving AppSumo
AppSumo regularly cycles deals in and out, and right now four lifetime offers are heading for the exit: TexAu, Tribe, Brizy Cloud, and Endorsal. Each one serves a completely different purpose — scraping and lead generation, community building, landing page creation, and testimonial collection respectively.
Rather than doing a deep-dive tutorial on each (those exist as standalone videos), this is more of a rapid-fire buying guide. The goal is simple: help you figure out which of these deals deserves your money before the clock runs out, and which ones you can safely let pass without any FOMO.
TexAu: Web Scraping for Lead Generation
TexAu is a cloud-based scraping platform that automates the process of extracting publicly visible data from websites and social networks. Think LinkedIn profiles, Facebook group members, email addresses displayed on websites, and similar publicly accessible information. The key word there is "publicly visible" — this isn't magic. If you can't see it on the screen with your own eyes, TexAu can't grab it either.
The AppSumo deal gives you 20 minutes of execution time per code per day, with two parallel executions per code. You can stack codes to increase your daily runtime, and at two codes you unlock workflow features (called "recipes") that chain multiple automations together. There's also an email enrichment feature that attempts to find contact details and social profiles from a name or email address.
The interface is genuinely clean compared to older scraping tools like ScrapeBox. TexAu organizes its automations (which they call "spices") in a visual menu — everything from adding Facebook friends to extracting emails from websites to scraping Craigslist listings. One important caveat: if you're doing high-volume scraping, you'll need proxies to avoid getting your accounts banned by the platforms you're scraping. TexAu partners with providers like Luminati and ProxyMesh, but those come with ongoing monthly costs on top of your lifetime deal purchase.
Who Should Buy TexAu (And Who Should Skip It)
If you have a moral objection to scraping, or you simply don't do any kind of cold outreach or growth hacking, pass on TexAu without a second thought. There's no point in buying a tool you'll never use, and scraping comes with genuine ethical considerations about contacting people who haven't opted in to hear from you.
For the curious, grabbing two codes unlocks the workflow features and gives you 60 days to experiment. You'll get a firsthand sense of whether scraping fits your business model. If you're already an experienced scraper, the economics compared to running your own VPS with ScrapeBox are roughly a coin flip once you factor in proxy costs. Pros have likely already made their decision — for everyone else, it's either skip it entirely or dip a toe in with a couple of codes.
Tribe: Build Your Own Online Community
Tribe lets you create a branded online community — essentially your own social media platform for your audience. At $69 for a single code with no stacking required, the feature set is surprisingly generous. You get full white-labeling, custom domain support, unlimited users, unlimited page views, and up to five moderators. The interface feels familiar if you've ever used Facebook — there's a news feed, the ability to create groups, topics people can follow, and three post types: quick posts, questions (with optional anonymity), and longer-form discussions.
The admin panel offers solid customization. You can adjust theme colors, inject custom CSS, add tracking pixels, configure SEO metadata, and control access levels — from fully public communities to invite-only private groups. There's a built-in app marketplace too, with features like social logins, Google Analytics integration, virtual currency for gamification, and even Facebook Messenger integration (though some of these are premium add-ons beyond the LTD).
One notable gap: there's no native video upload. You can embed YouTube or Vimeo links, but you can't host video content directly on the platform. That's listed on their roadmap but not available yet.
Is Tribe Right for Your Business?
The biggest question with any community platform isn't whether the software is good — it's whether you can convince people to show up. Your audience is already on Facebook, Twitter, and Reddit. Getting them to regularly visit a standalone community platform requires giving them a compelling reason to make that switch. That's the real challenge, and no amount of features can solve it for you.
If you don't need a community at all, skip Tribe entirely. If you're somewhat interested but don't want the complexity of setting up a WordPress-based solution like BuddyBoss, Tribe is a great middle ground — especially for hobby communities, family groups, or niche interest groups where people are specifically looking for an alternative to mainstream social media. One creative use case: it could work as a Patreon-style platform where you share exclusive content with paying subscribers.
For serious business use — high-end consulting, premium online courses, paid membership communities — you'll probably want more control than Tribe offers. You don't own the platform, so if Tribe changes direction or shuts down, you're at their mercy. Something self-hosted like BuddyBoss on WordPress gives you that extra layer of ownership and customization, even if it comes with more setup overhead.
Brizy Cloud: The Landing Page Builder That Delivers
Brizy Cloud is a fully hosted, cloud-based website and landing page builder. This is important to understand because Brizy also exists as a WordPress plugin, and the AppSumo deal covers both — but they're essentially separate products. The cloud version includes hosting, so you're building and publishing pages without needing your own server. The WordPress version requires you to set up hosting elsewhere (something like Cloudways) and install Brizy as a page builder plugin.
The page builder itself is polished and mature. It uses a block-based system where you drag in pre-designed sections — hero headers, testimonial blocks, call-to-action sections — and customize them visually. The editor supports both light and dark mode designs, has a full style editor for typography and formatting, and lets you add elements individually in a way that'll feel familiar if you've used Elementor. You can build multi-page websites with navigation menus, not just single landing pages.
There's also a client management feature baked in. You can create separate client accounts and switch between them, which makes Brizy particularly interesting for agencies or freelancers managing multiple projects. Pair it with something like ThriveCart and you've got a lifetime-deal-powered funnel setup that eliminates monthly page builder fees entirely.
Who Should Grab Brizy Before It's Gone
WordPress loyalists who are happy with their current setup — whether that's Elementor, Divi, or something else — don't need Brizy. Same goes for anyone already invested in a platform like Unbounce. If your current workflow isn't broken, there's no reason to introduce another tool.
Brizy makes the most sense for people who are curious about escaping the WordPress update treadmill, or who need a quick and capable landing page builder without the overhead of managing hosting and plugins. At $49 per code with three projects included, it's an affordable way to have a professional page builder on standby.
The people who should stack codes are those building landing pages regularly — agency owners, paid traffic specialists, and anyone with a steady pipeline of clients who need high-converting pages fast. Brizy's cloud interface makes spinning up new projects effortless, and the client management feature means you can keep everything organized. This is one deal that looks like it has real staying power as a product.
Endorsal: Testimonial Collection That's Getting Better
Endorsal is a platform for collecting and displaying customer reviews and testimonials on your website. A full review already exists on the channel, but there are a few updates worth noting as the deal nears its end.
First, the review gating feature. When you enable the "publish to other services" option — which prompts customers to also leave their review on Facebook, Google, or other platforms — you can now set a star rating threshold. Only reviews above that threshold will trigger the prompt to post elsewhere. So if someone leaves a three-star review, they won't be encouraged to post it to Google. It's not a perfect implementation — ideally the very first question would be a simple "did you like this service?" before anything else, similar to how Starfish Reviews handles it — but it's a step in the right direction.
The other notable addition is custom service links. Previously you could only direct people to Facebook or Google for external reviews, but now you can add any platform with a custom name and URL. The founder has indicated openness to evolving the product based on user feedback, which is encouraging for a lifetime deal purchase. You'll want at least three codes to unlock the core features, and five codes gets you the "Wall of Love" infinite-scroll testimonial display.
Final Verdict: Which Deals to Grab
Here's the quick summary. TexAu is a specialized tool for a specialized audience — if you're not doing growth hacking or cold outreach, let it pass. Tribe is a solid community builder that shines for casual or niche communities, but think hard about whether you can actually get people to show up before buying. Brizy Cloud is arguably the safest bet of the four — a mature, capable landing page builder with included hosting at a one-time cost. And Endorsal is a promising testimonial platform that's actively improving and worth betting on if collecting customer reviews matters to your business.
