The short version

  • Only Lark has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Lark lark's own pricing page description states it offers a free starter pack, a Pro plan, and an Enterprise plan, and directs buyers to Contact us rather than publishing Pro/Enterprise figures on the rendered page.; Loops pricing is metered at $0.10 per 1,000 emails on top of the contact-based plan tier, adding a variable cost beyond the base subscription
