Worth knowing
Boast
- No free plan; the 14-day trial puts a watermark on videos, widgets and forms.
- The FAQ says refunds are not offered, so the trial or a monthly plan is the way to test it.
- Plans are capped by responses per year, and an annual plan gives the whole year's responses up front.
- SMS sequences, Google and Facebook review collection and video editing need Team or above.
VideoPeel
- Response caps are tight: 10 on Basic and 20 on Pro; only Premium and above are unlimited.
- The Annually tab labels its prices 'billed monthly', so whether $4.99, $49 and $99 are charged yearly or monthly is not stated.
- AI clipping, analysis, editing and automated rewards need Premium or higher.
- Aimed at enterprise video research, so it is broader than a review-collection tool.

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
