Soundtrap plans, side by side

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.

What the product covers
The full Soundtrap 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.

- Real-time collaboration
- Podcast-specific tools
- Loop and instrument library
- Spotify Premium bundle
- Direct publishing
People bring Soundtrap in for a podcaster wanting browser-based multi-track voice recording with automatic leveling and noise reduction, a musician collaborating remotely with bandmates in real time without sharing large project files manually, a spotify premium subscriber taking advantage of the bundled discount on a soundtrap plan, a creator who wants access to both music and podcast production tools and picks the complete tier. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Soundtrap are worth a look before you commit to a tier.
How that compares in Music

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 Soundtrap badges page.
Before you pay for Soundtrap
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: 5 tiers between Free and $17.99/month, with the jump itemised above. Because there is a free tier, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to use it before paying anything.
Soundtrap runs on web, ios, android, and is published by Soundtrap AB (a Spotify company) of Stockholm, Sweden. The full record is on the Soundtrap review, and the rest of the category is under best music tools.
