Set up Quipthread Cloud

Quipthread Cloud is the managed version of Quipthread. You get a fully hosted backend — no server to run, no binary to build.

Go to app.quipthread.com/signup. The Hobby plan is free and requires no credit card.

After signing in you’ll be taken through the onboarding wizard. Enter a name and the URL of your website, then click Create site. You’ll receive a Site ID — keep this, you need it for the embed snippet.

Copy the snippet from the dashboard (Sites tab) and paste it into any page where you want comments. Place the <div> where the widget should appear, then add the <script> tag:

<div
id="comments"
data-site-id="YOUR_SITE_ID"
data-page-id="YOUR_PAGE_ID"
></div>
<script
src="https://app.quipthread.com/embed.js"
async
></script>

Replace YOUR_SITE_ID with the ID from the dashboard, and set data-page-id to a unique string per page (e.g. the post slug or URL path). Use the script address supplied by the dashboard.

Comments from new users land in the moderation queue. Open the Moderation tab in the dashboard to approve, reject, or reply.

Plan Comments / month Sites
Hobby 1,000 1
Starter 10,000 5
Pro 50,000 20
Business 250,000 Unlimited

Monthly posting and site limits are enforced for each plan. When you reach a limit, upgrade from Billing or wait for the monthly posting allowance to reset. Existing comments remain available. New comments, replies, and imports use this allowance; deleting comments does not restore it. Limits reset on the first day of each month at 00:00 UTC. The Billing page shows your current usage and allowance.
