The short version

  • Each has a real cost: ProtoPie the free plan allows 2 prototypes, 8 scenes per prototype and 50MB of cloud storage; Woven the Internet Archive's capture of Woven's homepage on 30 December 2020 named specific features (Smart Templates, Scheduling Links, Availability Sharing, Group Polls) and confirmed integration with Google, G Suite and Office 365, but the linked Pricing page itself could not be retrieved from the archive.
  • They diverge on capability: ProtoPie covers Interactive prototyping, Woven covers Smart scheduling.
