Pricing: LiveDemo: Free forever for 1 creator. Pro is $34/mo per creator ($27 billed annually), Growth is $49/mo per creator ($39 billed annually), Business is custom. Inkly: Free covers 30 active visitors a month. Pro starts at $150/mo ($120 billed yearly) for 150 active visitors, with higher tiers for 360, 720 and 1,800 visitors. Past the cap the demo falls back to chat mode. Enterprise is custom and adds product clones, live product streaming, custom integrations and a done-for-you build.

## Who should choose LiveDemo?

- Teams that want clickable HTML captures of their real product on a self-serve plan, not only on Enterprise
- Startups and mid-market teams that want predictable per-creator pricing that does not grow with traffic tiers
- Companies that want the whole platform, AI agent included, source-available (FSL-1.1-MIT) and free to self-host (whitelabel not included)

## Who should choose Inkly?

- Teams happy to pay more as visitor traffic grows
- Companies fine with the demo falling back to chat once the visitor cap is hit
- Teams willing to move to Enterprise to get product clones

## Why do teams choose LiveDemo over Inkly?

### Reason #1: Pay per creator, not per active visitor

Inkly bills on active visitors: 30 a month on Free, then Pro from $150/mo ($120 billed yearly) for 150 visitors, with pricier tiers for 360, 720 and 1,800. Past the cap the agent drops to chat only. LiveDemo is free forever for one creator, Pro is $34/mo per creator, and Agentic Demos start on the $49/mo Growth plan.

### Reason #2: Clickable HTML demos without an Enterprise contract

Inkly's pixel-accurate product clone, where the buyer and the agent both click through the product, is Enterprise only and built by Inkly's team. With LiveDemo you capture your web app as clickable HTML yourself with the Chrome extension, Figma plugin or desktop app, edit it, and publish the same day.

### Reason #3: The whole platform is source-available, not just the player

Inkly open-sourced its screenshot tour player and CLI under MIT, but the AI demo agent, buyer intelligence and analytics are closed. LiveDemo's full platform, including Agentic Demos, is source-available under FSL-1.1-MIT and free to self-host (whitelabel not included), so you keep your demos and data on your own infrastructure.

## Frequently asked questions

### Is LiveDemo a good Inkly alternative?

Yes, especially if you want clickable HTML demos and an AI agent without an Enterprise contract. LiveDemo starts free, prices per creator instead of per active visitor, and includes Agentic Demos from $49/mo.

### How much does Inkly cost?

Inkly Free covers 30 active visitors a month. Pro starts at $150/mo, or $120/mo billed yearly, for 150 active visitors, with higher tiers up to 1,800 visitors. Enterprise pricing is custom.

### Does Inkly have a free plan?

Yes. Inkly's Free plan includes the voice and chat demo agent, embeds, share links, the Chrome extension and the no-code editor for up to 30 active visitors a month. Visitor details, lead qualification and analytics need Pro.

### What is an active visitor in Inkly?

Inkly counts an active visitor as one person who opens your demo and tells the agent who they are, once per month however often they return. When you pass your plan's limit, the demo keeps working in chat mode only.

### Is Inkly open source?

Partly. Inkly's interactive-demo player, CLI and local editor are MIT licensed on GitHub, but its AI demo agent, buyer intelligence and hosted platform are proprietary. LiveDemo's entire platform, including the AI agent, is source-available under FSL-1.1-MIT, and each version converts to MIT two years after release.

### Does Inkly support agentic demos?

Yes. Inkly's demo agent talks and chats with visitors in real time while driving your product on screen. Every plan includes it, with per-prospect tailoring on Pro and product clones or live product streaming on Enterprise.

### What is the difference between LiveDemo and Inkly?

Inkly is a voice-first AI demo agent priced by active visitors, with clickable product clones and done-for-you builds on Enterprise. LiveDemo is a self-serve, source-available demo platform where you capture clickable HTML, screenshot or video demos and add an AI agent from $49/mo per creator.
