What process documentation is, a template you can fill in today, and the specific reasons most of it goes stale and stops being trusted.
Starter is $29 a month or $18 billed yearly; Pro starts at $89 or $64 billed yearly, with larger credit tiers up to $676 a month. Synthesia bills in credits, and video, dubbing and surveys draw from one balance. Plans, credits and features re-verified in-browser on 10 October 2026.
Solo is $480/year and Business $1,440 at its two-user base. The real constraint is export minutes — publishing a view-only link counts, and every translation is a separate video, so one 3-minute guide in four languages costs 12 minutes. Verified in-browser 18 September 2026.
Pro is $156/creator/year and already includes 4K, auto-zoom and AI document generation; viewers are free. There is no forever-free tier — the 7-day trial starts at signup. 60FPS is on Pro, and SSO is a $125/month add-on rather than Enterprise-only. Verified in-browser 18 September 2026.
VEED Creator is $116 per user a year on the annual plan versus $240 paid monthly, not the card's $10 x 12. Pro $257 and Studio $414 a year. Free exports carry a 720p watermark. Verified in-browser 18 September 2026.
Screen Studio is $29/month or $108/year for the same product — monthly only saves money for three months, and month four is where it flips. One-time licences can no longer be bought but existing ones stay valid. macOS only. Verified in-browser 17 September 2026.
Scale is $456/creator/year and Growth is $4,200 for five creators — at five seats Scale is $1,920 cheaper, so you upgrade for features not headcount. Free records at 4K but exports at 1080p with a watermark. The AI Demo Agent is metered separately. Verified in-browser 17 September 2026.
Starter is $59/seat/month annually ($708/year), and Video Agent is a separate $24 add-on — so the combination most buyers want is $996/seat/year. The $19 figure you have read was Pro, retired in the February 2025 repackaging. Verified in-browser 17 September 2026.
Starter is $480/year and Growth is $6,000 — 12.5x, with nothing between them. Demo-view volume does not move you up; HTML demos, A/B testing and team collaboration do. RepX is billed separately on monthly visitors. Verified in-browser 17 September 2026.
Pro is $22/user/month annually at one to two users and $15 at three or more, so the third seat adds about $12 a year once the workspace reprices at renewal. The free plan's five-workflow cap limits published workflows, not total captures. Verified 17 September 2026; monthly Personal re-checked 15 October 2026 ($30).
Snagit is $39/user/year with no monthly option — and Business costs more per seat at $48, discounting only to $45.60 at ten seats. Snagit 2025 and later are subscription-only. The 25-video figure is Screencast hosting, not a Snagit cap. Verified in-browser 17 September 2026.
Pro Personal is $25/seat/month on annual billing; Pro Team is $23 with a five-seat minimum, so Team only costs less from five users. Scribe's own site gives three different answers about the free guide limit. Prices verified in-browser 8 October 2026.
Camtasia is sold as four individual annual plans, from $39 to $599 a year. Starter includes the editor but watermarks exports; watermark-free output starts at Essentials. Verified 17 September 2026, re-checked 30 September.
Business is $18/user/month monthly, or $180/year — $15/month equivalent. The AI features everyone associates with Loom sit on Business + AI at $24. Here is what unlocks at each tier, verified on Loom's own pricing page.
Descript meters media hours and AI credits separately. Annual runs $16 / $24 / $50 per person per month; monthly is $24 / $35 / $65. Free gives 60 minutes and a watermark. Re-checked 7 October 2026.
Tango vs Scribe at public list prices: Tango costs less at every team size we worked out (1 to 10 seats). Both have desktop apps on paid tiers; Scribe also makes video and converts recordings into guides. Prices checked 8 and 15 October 2026.
Pro is $19/creator/month annually and removes the watermark. Desktop capture, unlimited text-to-voice and MP4 import sit on Business at $39 — and Business caps at 5 creators. Verified in-browser 16 September 2026.
Compared on the same billing cycle, Tella Pro is $13/user/month annually and Loom Business works out at $15. Both edit by transcript and generate AI titles. Verified in-browser 16 September 2026.
Vidyard Starter is $59/seat/month annually, $89 monthly. But CRM integrations — the usual reason to pick Vidyard — sit on custom-priced Teams, not Starter. Checked on both vendors' own pricing pages.
Everyone quotes "$40 vs $500, 12x cheaper." Compare the tiers that actually contain the HTML demo editor and both cost $500/month annually. Here is the like-for-like breakdown.
