Pick by situation
The short answer
You want to start free and pay only per builder seat
Free plan, then $39–49 per builder seat with lead forms, prospect links, and a per-stop funnel. Screenshots, not HTML.
You want HTML capture at the lowest published team price
HTML on the $50/mo Growth plan for up to ten seats — a fraction of HowdyGo's $159/mo Starter.
You want HTML on every plan with a free demo to try first
One free HTML demo; annual, sales-priced plans above it.
Your whole company edits demos and the flat price is the point
Stay — unlimited users per workspace is HowdyGo's genuine edge, and few tools match it.
Why people look
Why teams search for a HowdyGo alternative
HowdyGo's pricing is built for teams: every plan has unlimited users and unlimited HTML demos, so a ten-editor company pays the same as a two-editor one. The search for an alternative usually starts at the other end of that trade. There is no free plan — both tiers open with a 14-day trial and the entry price is $159 a month billed annually ($199 monthly) — and a solo marketer pays the full workspace rate for one pair of hands. Demo analytics are the other gate: Starter tracks views through Google Analytics only, and the funnel, CRM integrations, and lead scoring arrive on Pro at $399 a month annual. Teams that want to measure a demo without a four-figure annual bill look elsewhere.
No free plan: both paid plans start with a 14-day trial, and the entry price is $159/mo billed annually ($199 monthly).

Switching
Moving from HowdyGo
- HowdyGo demos are HTML captures; nothing imports them. Re-capture the flow with the new tool's extension — an afternoon per demo.
- If you edited text and images heavily in HowdyGo's captured UI, note that screenshot tools cannot do that after capture; re-shoot the screen from a clean demo account instead.
- Keep the GIF and video exports — they stay useful in email even after the account closes.
- Monthly billing on both sides means the switch can happen in any month; annual contracts run to their end date.
