The short version

  • Each has a real cost: BoldSign premium plan: additional envelopes cost $0.50 each after 250/month limit; Supernormal credit consumption varies by task complexity and no rate card is published, so a team cannot forecast whether fifty credits covers a month of work until it has spent one, which makes the paid tiers hard to size.

Where each one falls short

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

BoldSign

  • Premium plan: additional envelopes cost $0.50 each after 250/month limit
  • Monthly billing costs 60-85% more than yearly billing (no 40% discount)
  • Enterprise API requires minimum $30/month

Supernormal

  • Credit consumption varies by task complexity and no rate card is published, so a team cannot forecast whether fifty credits covers a month of work until it has spent one, which makes the paid tiers hard to size.
  • Team and Business include the same fifty credits, so the higher tier buys governance rather than capacity, and a heavy user hitting the ceiling gains nothing by upgrading.
  • Capturing without a visible bot removes the prompt that reminds participants they are being recorded, but not the legal consent obligation in two-party consent jurisdictions, and the product makes that omission easy.
  • Desktop capture depends on the application running on the meeting host's machine, so a participant joining from a phone, a locked-down corporate laptop or a browser without the extension gets nothing.
  • The category is crowded with better-funded competitors bundled into Zoom, Microsoft and Google subscriptions customers already pay for, which puts sustained pressure on a small independent vendor and on the value of standardising a team on it.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

BoldSign: Does BoldSign offer a free plan?

BoldSign's Essential plan is free and includes 25 envelopes per month, 2 templates, and basic features like audit trails and authentication.

Source
Supernormal: Does Supernormal join my meeting as a bot?

No. It captures from the desktop application, so no additional participant appears in the call. That is its main differentiator.

BoldSign: How much does the BoldSign Growth plan cost?

The Growth plan costs $5 per month per user with annual billing or $15 per month per user with monthly billing, including 50 envelopes/month per user.

Source
Supernormal: How much does it cost?

Free gives 15 credits a month capped at 5 a day. Team is $20 a month and Business is $40 a month, both with 50 credits.

BoldSign: What are the overage fees for BoldSign's Premium plan?

The Premium plan includes 250 envelopes per month for $99-$138/month, with additional envelopes charged at $0.75 per envelope.

Source
Supernormal: What does a credit buy?

Credits are consumed by tasks and usage varies with complexity. The vendor does not publish per-task rates, which is the weak point of the pricing model.

BoldSign: How much does BoldSign charge for API access?

BoldSign's Enterprise API costs $0.75 per envelope with a minimum charge of $30/month and includes 40 envelopes and 2 application users.

Source
Supernormal: Do I still need consent to record?

Yes. Removing the visible bot does not remove the legal requirement in jurisdictions that require all parties to consent. Treat the absence of a prompt as a compliance risk, not a feature.
