The short version

Only Vowel has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
Each has a real cost: Flodesk flat monthly pricing starting near $19 to $25 per month on annual billing does not scale down for very small lists the way per-subscriber pricing from competitors can; Vowel the Internet Archive's capture of Vowel's homepage on 4 January 2021 showed the video conferencing/transcript tool was in a 'Request access' waitlist phase with no pricing figure published.
