Shottr pricing

What each tier adds

The set difference between each tier's feature list and the one beneath it. Where a tier lists nothing new, the vendor has either stopped repeating the inherited list or the tier raises limits rather than adding capability, the record does not distinguish the two, so this page does not either.

Where Shottr stops being free

What the product covers

The full Shottr feature record, grouped as the catalogue groups it. This is the product as a whole; the record does not map every feature onto a specific tier.

People bring Shottr in for a user who wants ocr and precise annotation without paying anything up front, someone evaluating whether a screenshot tool is worth paying for before committing money, unlike cleanshot x which requires payment first, a user who occasionally needs a colour picker and is fine with the free tier for everything else, anyone who wants a lighter alternative to cleanshot x without giving up scrolling capture or annotation. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Shottr are worth a look before you commit to a tier.

How that compares in Utilities

Too few utilities tools in this directory publish a starting price to quote a meaningful median, so the table below is a like-for-like list rather than a ranking.

Ratings are aggregated from third-party sources and imported with each catalogue entry, they are not reviews hosted on Softwr. How each figure is used is set out on the Shottr badges page.

What is the difference between Free and Basic on Shottr?

Basic costs $8/one-time against Free, and adds one-time unlock of extra features, removes purchase prompts.

Is the Friends Club plan on Shottr worth it?

That depends entirely on whether you need what it adds, which on the published record is higher one-time tier, access to experimental features and priority support. It costs $25/one-time against $8/one-time for Basic. Softwr has not used either tier, so this page can tell you what changes, not whether it is worth the difference to you.

In practice it is brought in for a user who wants ocr and precise annotation without paying anything up front, someone evaluating whether a screenshot tool is worth paying for before committing money, unlike cleanshot x which requires payment first, a user who occasionally needs a colour picker and is fine with the free tier for everything else.

Does Shottr charge per user?

The record carries a price and a billing period for each of its 3 tiers, but not the unit that price is charged in. Per-seat and flat-rate billing look identical in this data, so check the vendor's page before budgeting for a team.

Are these Shottr prices current?

They are what the catalogue entry holds, refreshed when the entry is. Vendors change pricing without notice and nobody at Softwr re-verifies each tier by hand, so treat this as a structured summary and the vendor's own pricing page as the authority.
