The short version

  • Only Weebly has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Trint the Starter plan caps at seven files a month with no rollover, which a working journalist exhausts in a fortnight, so the advertised entry price is not the price most buyers will actually pay.; Weebly free plan does not allow connecting a custom domain; that requires at least the $13 per month Personal plan

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Trint

  • The Starter plan caps at seven files a month with no rollover, which a working journalist exhausts in a fortnight, so the advertised entry price is not the price most buyers will actually pay.
  • It is priced per seat at professional software levels, so giving every reporter in a mid-sized newsroom a licence is a substantial annual line item compared with a general transcription tool.
  • Transcription accuracy on poor field audio, crowded rooms, phone lines and heavy accents still requires correction, and the correction time is the real cost rather than the subscription.
  • Single sign-on, SCIM, audit logs and API access are gated to a quoted Enterprise tier, so any organisation with an identity policy cannot use the published pricing at all.
  • The tooling is optimised for editorial workflow rather than raw volume, so a team that mainly needs a lot of cheap transcripts and no collaboration is paying for a surface it will not use.

Weebly

  • Free plan does not allow connecting a custom domain; that requires at least the $13 per month Personal plan
  • Discounted monthly rates ($13 to $32) require annual billing; month-to-month billing costs more ($16 to $36)
