Research and trust
Before you compare numbers, confirm which product line a Storylane quote belongs to. Then test the part that decides the plan: how many demos you need live at once, and whether you need to edit captured HTML.
Why pick Arclet over Storylane
Arclet keeps your demos live without making you choose which one. Free publishes five demos at once, so your homepage tour, onboarding flow, and feature demo can all be live before you pay. Record each with the Chrome extension, edit the steps, and share a link viewers open without logging in.
Starter is $29 a month, or $25 billed annually, for unlimited published demos, blur and zoom, step-level analytics, and branding removal. Team is $79 a month, or $69 billed annually, with two creators included.

Click through picking a demo and the share action that puts it in front of a buyer. The recorded share surface copies the link without showing it, so these frames stop at the share action.
When Storylane is the better pick
Storylane is the better pick for a GTM team that wants leads from its demos and room to grow into HTML. Lead capture is on Storylane’s Free card, with basic analytics and AI content and voice help. Demo Suite Starter adds unlimited published demos, AI voiceovers and translations, HubSpot and Zapier, and custom branding.
The heavier features cost more. Demo Suite Growth is $500 a month billed annually for five seats ($625 monthly), and adds HTML editing and A/B testing. Premium is $1,200 a month billed annually for ten seats, with Salesforce, SSO, and white label. Enterprise is custom, with API and private links and professional services.
Choose by the job to be done
The right pick depends on how many demos you need live and who reads them. Here are the three setups we see most.
Several demos live on a free plan
A homepage tour, a feature launch, and an onboarding walkthrough are three demos, not one. On Storylane Free, you’d pick one to keep live. On Arclet Free, all three stay published while you decide what to pay for.
A demo that has to capture leads
If the demo sits behind your ad spend and every viewer should become a contact, lead capture decides it. Storylane includes it from Free. Arclet is the pick when the demo’s job is to show the product and your site already handles the form.
A sales team that edits HTML for each deal
Swapping data on a captured screen for each prospect is HTML editing, and on Storylane that starts at Demo Suite Growth, $500 a month billed annually for five seats. Price that plan, not Starter, if it’s your workflow.
