The category's chart of price against score: https://toolgpa.com/charts/webinars ## Keep it, or make your own? **Keep it.** To replace Brella you would be making live video to hundreds of people at once. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 23 of the 34 other webinar and live streaming tools grade higher. - You could make: Calendar: an app builder makes this well. - You could not: Live video to hundreds of people at once. - You could not: Selling tickets and checking them at the door. - You could not: A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page. - You could not: It plugs into other products, YouTube and Vimeo among them, and has an API. - You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
