Value for money
CGrowth is $42.50 per seat a month billed yearly, or $50 monthly. That's well above what video tools here typically start at, even if other demo tools in the directory charge about the same. And the API, SSO, custom domains and version history are all Enterprise only.
CSolo is $40 a month billed yearly, or $50 monthly, for 1 user and 3 hours of video exports a year. That's well above what video tools here typically start at, and exports are capped on top. Business is $120 a month for 2 users and 6 hours a year.
Free plan and trial
BFree gives 1 user unlimited AI demos, unlimited views, AI voiceovers and 200 AI credits a month. But you can publish only 1 demo and 1 video, the Arcade watermark stays on, and there's no GIF or MP4 export. Those 200 credits cover about 2 minutes of AI video.
BFree gives 1 user 10 minutes of video exports a month, with 500+ voices to pick from. But exports carry a watermark and stop at 1080p, and each input video can be up to 10 minutes. It's there to evaluate with, and that's about it.
Features
ADemos with hotspots, callouts and chapters, synthetic voiceover in multiple languages, and AI videos built from a prompt, screenshots or product docs. Growth adds branching, forms, viewer insights and demos personalized for each viewer. That's the whole job of a product demo tool, in depth.
AIt starts from a recording, a slide deck, a document or a prompt, then adds the script, voiceover, zooms, captions and translation. A browser agent can record the walkthrough for you. There's a timeline editor with keyframes, and the same content exports as a help article. The whole job, in depth.
Ease of use
BNo store rating on record, so a B is as high as we go. You record with a Chrome extension, a desktop app or a Figma plugin, and a published demo is a live asset, so one edit fixes it everywhere it's embedded.
