Source: https://livesession.io/startup-program ## Key features - **Session replay:** Recordings of mouse movement, clicks and scrolling, with filters, tags, rage and error click flags, and skip-inactivity playback. - **Heatmaps and clickmaps:** Heatmaps and clickmaps show where visitors click and scroll. They are included on every plan, including the free one. - **Funnels, metrics and dashboards:** Funnels track drop-off between steps. The free plan allows 1 funnel and Basic allows 2; metrics and dashboards open up on Pro. - **Developer tools:** Console logs, network requests and errors attached to each session, for debugging. Listed as a core feature on all plans. - **Integrations for support:** Replays can be linked from Intercom, Zendesk, LiveChat and Sentry, and sent to tools like Google Analytics and Segment. - **Privacy controls:** Content masking hides sensitive page elements from recordings. The vendor states GDPR and CCPA compliance. ## Good for - Product and support teams that mainly need session replays - Small sites starting on a free plan with low traffic - Teams wanting replays linked from Intercom or Zendesk tickets ## Worth knowing - The free plan stops at 1,000 sessions a month and keeps data for 1 month. - Pricing follows recorded sessions; Basic runs up to 15,000 and Pro up to 150,000 per month. - Pro features such as dashboards, custom events and Slack alerts are not on Basic. - Monthly billing is offered on Free, Basic and Pro; the listed prices are the annually billed ones. ## ToolGPA grades **GPA: 2.2 out of 4**, graded Nov 12, 2026. LiveSession records visitor sessions and gives you heatmaps and funnels, and the free plan covers 1,000 sessions a month. That runs out fast, the free plan keeps data for a month, and dashboards, custom events and Slack alerts need Pro. Busy sites will outgrow it. - **Value for money: C.** $54 a month for 5,000 sessions on Basic, billed annually. That sits in the middle of what analytics tools charge, and Pro is $83 for 10,000. - **Free plan and trial: C.** Free plan with 1,000 sessions a month, 3 team members and 2 projects. Data is kept for 1 month, so a normal site hits the limit quickly. - **Features: C.** Session replay, heatmaps, clickmaps and funnels. Dashboards, custom events and Slack alerts are missing from Basic. - **Ease of use: C.** No store rating on record. You add a tracking script and set up projects and funnels yourself. - **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web only, but it links to Intercom, Zendesk, LiveChat, Sentry, Shopify, Zapier, Segment and Slack.

What surrounds it you could not. The 4 things listed below take a company, not a weekend. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 27 of the 58 other website and product analytics tools grade higher. It costs $648 a year. - You could make: Reports: an app builder makes this well. - You could not: Recordings of what each visitor did on your pages. - You could not: A tracking script and a database that counts every visit. - You could not: Connections that pull numbers from dozens of other services. - You could not: It plugs into other products, Intercom, Zendesk and LiveChat among them, and has an API. A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool. Nothing was built to test it. ## Works with Intercom, Zendesk, LiveChat, Sentry, Shopify, Zapier, Segment, Slack **Tags:** Session replay, Web analytics, Dashboards, Public API, Reports ## Alternatives - [Contentsquare](https://toolgpa.com/tools/hotjar): Heatmaps, session replays and surveys, formerly sold as Hotjar.
