## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace Webinato 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: 58 of the 60 other webinar and live streaming tools grade higher. It costs $2,040 a year.

- You could make: Surveys: an app builder makes this well.
- You could not: Live video to hundreds of people at once.
- You could not: An endless canvas that stays smooth with hundreds of things on it.
- You could not: An API that other software can build on.
