Website publishers can add hosted comments through Remarkbox, a comments service.
About Remarkbox
Remarkbox is a hosted comment service that website publishers embed in their pages. The homepage says it is aimed at static sites, which do not include built-in comments, and states that it is designed to avoid ads and tracking.
Visitors can comment without creating an account. Comments support Markdown with real-time previews, syntax-highlighted code blocks, and deeply nested replies. The homepage says the service works without JavaScript and adds enhancements when JavaScript is available. When a visitor comments, Remarkbox collects their email address to send a verification email for login. The homepage's claims about faster page loads and better search ranking come from the vendor and are not independently verified.
