Arcade does not sell HTML capture at any published price. Rendemo gives it away.
Arcade is strong at AI-generated demo video and visuals. But capturing the real HTML of your product — the thing that makes a demo clickable rather than a recording of one — sits behind "Let's talk" on their Enterprise tier.
What each plan actually costs
Arcade figures are their published monthly prices, verified 30 July 2026. Rendemo is flat per workspace, so seats never change it.
The same team, both bills
The first row is the one that matters. Arcade's other tiers are priced and comparable; HTML capture is not sold at any published price, so a team that wants clickable real-product demos negotiates an Enterprise contract rather than picking a plan.
| Team | Arcade | Rendemo | Why |
|---|---|---|---|
| Any size, real HTML demos | Enterprise quote | $0 (Free) | Not purchasable at a published price there; it is our free tier |
| 1 person, branded demos | $50/mo | $39/mo | Free removes their watermark only from Growth up |
| 5 people, branded demos | $250/mo | $39/mo | 6× — $50 per seat |
| 10 people, branded demos | $500/mo | $39/mo | 13× — and Growth caps at 10 users |

This is a Rendemo demo, embedded the way you would embed yours — one script tag. It is real product HTML, so click through it rather than watching it.

When Arcade is the better choice
Straight answer, because you will find this out in week two anyway:
- You want AI to generate the video, not just direct it.
Arcade generates video and visuals from a text prompt and charges credits for it. Rendemo renders video from a recording you made — it will not invent footage you never captured.
- You record outside the browser.
Arcade ships a Mac and Windows desktop app and a Figma plugin. Rendemo captures through a Chrome extension only, so a native app or a Figma file is out of scope by design.
- You need SOC 2 on paper today.
Arcade lists SOC 2 compliance. Rendemo offers a security review on Enterprise but does not hold that certification, and for many procurement teams that ends the conversation.
- You want to know which companies viewed the demo.
Arcade's Audience Reveal deanonymizes visitor traffic. Rendemo reports step-level behaviour and captured leads, not visitor identity.
- You want a vendor with a track record.
Arcade is established, with a support organisation and a large customer base. Rendemo is new.
Questions
What is the best Arcade alternative?
Rendemo is an Arcade alternative for teams that want interactive demos built from the real HTML of their product. Arcade offers HTML capture only on its custom-priced Enterprise tier and charges $50 per seat per month for Growth, while Rendemo captures real HTML on its free plan and charges $39 per month flat for unlimited creators.
How much does Arcade cost?
Arcade's published pricing is a free plan for one user, Growth at $50 per month per seat with additional seats at $50 each and a ceiling of ten users, and custom Enterprise pricing. HTML capture, SSO and custom domains are Enterprise-only, so they carry no published price at all.
Does Arcade capture real HTML?
Arcade lists HTML capture as an Enterprise feature on its published pricing page, alongside SSO, custom domains and role-based access. The Free and Growth tiers do not include it, so a team that wants HTML demos has to negotiate an Enterprise contract.
How is Rendemo different from Arcade?
Rendemo captures real product HTML on every plan including the free one, prices flat per workspace rather than per seat, does not meter AI usage in credits, and can define demos and tours as code in your repository so a UI change that breaks a tour fails your build. Arcade is stronger at AI-generated video and visuals and records from a desktop app and a Figma plugin.
When should I choose Arcade over Rendemo?
Choose Arcade if you want AI to generate video and visuals from text prompts, if you need to record outside the browser from a Mac or Windows desktop app or from Figma, if you need SOC 2 compliance today, or if you need visitor account reveal. Rendemo offers none of those.
Arcade pricing and plan contents are taken from their published pricing page, verified 30 July 2026. Vendors change pricing — check theirs before deciding. Rendemo figures come from the same source our own billing reads, so the number here is the number you would pay. Spotted something wrong? Tell us and we will fix it.
