Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Amity
- Amity Social Cloud is priced per Monthly Active User (MAU) rather than a flat seat fee, with tiers of $0.06/$0.09/$0.14 per MAU (USD) on Basic, Advanced and Max plans as archived in 2022, so cost scales directly with app usage rather than user count.
Chameleon
- The entry price is high for the category: $279 a month at 2,000 tracked users and $750 at 5,000 on Pro, so a product with a large free tier is paying substantially for users who may never convert.
- Billing is by monthly tracked users, counting any uniquely identified profile seen in 30 days, which means seasonal or occasional-login products pay for people who log in twice a month.
- Pro caps live experiences at 20, and mature onboarding programmes exceed that quickly, so the practical plan for a serious deployment is Growth at $1,250 a month on annual billing.
- There is no mobile SDK, so a company with an iOS or Android app alongside its web product needs a second onboarding tool and a second set of content.
- It is not an analytics product, so audience definitions depend on a working Segment, Amplitude or Mixpanel integration; if your event tracking is unreliable, your targeting will be too, and the tool will get the blame.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages
Amity: Where can I find Amity pricing?
Amity's main corporate website does not display pricing. Amity operates multiple business units (Amity Solutions, Amity Accentix, Tollring, EGG Digital). You would need to visit the individual business unit websites or contact their sales team for pricing.
SourceChameleon: What is a monthly tracked user?
A uniquely identified user profile sent to Chameleon within the previous 30 days. Anonymous visitors you never identify do not count, but any logged-in user does.
Chameleon: Does Chameleon work on mobile apps?
No. It is a web tool delivered by a JavaScript snippet. Native mobile onboarding requires a different product.
Chameleon: Do I need engineering to use it?
Only for the initial snippet installation and for identifying users with the properties you want to target. After that, building experiences is no-code.
Chameleon: Was Chameleon at trychameleon.com?
Yes, and that domain now redirects to chameleon.io. It is the same product, not a rebrand of substance.
