The short version

  • Only Taimi has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Steam publishing a game requires developers to pay a non-refundable $100 Steam Direct fee per title, recouped only once the product earns $1,000 in adjusted gross revenue; Taimi premium filters, seeing your visitors, unlimited likes, profile preferences and custom location are all behind the premium subscription
