Why teams look beyond Arcade

Credits. AI video uses 50 credits for every 30 seconds and each AI visual uses 50, out of 200 a month on Free and 800 on Growth.

One free demo. Arcade Free publishes one interactive demo and one AI video, on one seat.

Seats and Enterprise gates. Growth is $42.50 per seat a month billed annually, extra seats are $50 a month, and HTML capture is listed on Enterprise.

Research and trust

Decide what you’ll actually make each month: how many demos, how many minutes of video, how many people building. Then price two tools against those numbers, not against their cheapest plan.

Arclet: guided demos with no credits

Arclet is the Arcade alternative for teams that only need the demo. Record a workflow with the Chrome extension, edit each step, and share a public link viewers open without logging in. One creator can publish five demos free.

Unlimited published demos and branding removal start on Starter: $29 a month, or $25 billed annually. Two people building? Team includes both for $69 a month billed annually, or $79 monthly.

Guided interactive demos with chapters and branches on every plan, and nothing metered by credits.

Watch for: No AI video, and no MP4 or GIF export.

Price: Free, then Starter at $25/month billed annually ($29 monthly) for one creator.

Pick an Arcade alternative by the job

The reason you bought Arcade tells you which alternative to try first.

Clickable demos on a budget

You make walkthroughs, not videos. Arclet and Supademo both give one creator five free demos. Arclet stays one flat price as you grow; Supademo charges per creator.

HTML demos for a sales motion

Reps need buyers to explore the product. HowdyGo includes HTML demos from Starter, Storylane adds HTML editing on Growth, and Navattic and Walnut suit larger go-to-market teams.

AI video as the main output

If the video matters more than the click-through, Guidde is built for narrated how-tos and starts free.
