  • Each has a real cost: Goldcast no pricing is published for any of the four product lines, and none carries a seat, event or processing limit on the page; Mural the free plan allows 3 editable murals at a time, so working on a fourth means archiving one
  • They diverge on capability: Goldcast covers Virtual events, Mural covers Infinite canvas.
