Which plan to pickStart on Free to see if the capture works with your apps. If you document processes every week, Pro on yearly billing is enough for one person. Business only makes sense once several people are building guides or you need desktop capture.Start on the free plan. If you regularly hit the three-files or 30-minute limit, Unlimited billed yearly works out at $10 a month. Test a typical recording first, because purchases aren't refundable.
