The matchups worth weighing
Which video player fits your sales video? Not sure which two tools to weigh yet? Six questions about the video's job, what you measure and how you want to be billed point to one route: a funnel player, a course host, a B2B platform, a rep tool, a developer API or a webinar room.
VSL hosting cost calculator. Before any single matchup, price your own traffic. Enter monthly plays, video length and watch share, and see what six hosts would bill when one counts plays, another gigabytes and another delivered minutes, with the formula behind each figure.
Free plan checker. Stay on a free row only if it still fits. Enter the same plays, length and watch share, and see which free allowances cover that sales page, with a switch for players that keep a host logo.
Webinar cost calculator. Price a month of sessions before you pick a room. Enter how often you go live or automated, how many people you expect, and the show-up rate, and compare a flat room, attendee credits and an automated plan from each vendor's published rates.
Live or automated webinar? Six questions for someone who sells on a webinar and has not picked the platform. A live room, a scheduled replay, or both on one subscription, then the plan row to open. If the open question is the bill, use the calculator above.
