Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Auphonic

  • The free tier covers 2 hours of processed audio a month
  • Billing is by audio duration with a 3 minute minimum per production, so many short clips cost more than the running time suggests
  • Multilingual speech recognition, automatic chapters and show notes all require a paid plan
  • Watch folders, batch productions and team accounts are paid features
  • Free output carries an Auphonic jingle

Instapage

  • Create tier limited to 15,000 monthly unique visitors; scaling requires upgrading to Optimize tier
  • Optimize tier offers only 30,000 or 50,000 visitor tiers, requiring Convert (custom pricing) for higher volumes
  • Pricing significantly higher than competitor Leadpages, which offers unlimited traffic starting at $99/month
  • Advanced personalisation and heatmaps only available in Convert (enterprise) tier
  • Annual billing required for 20% savings; monthly billing incurs full price
