How we compiled this
Pricing fetched June 2026 from each vendor's official pricing page via WebFetch. Vimeo's pricing page (vimeo.com/plans, /upgrade, /upgrade-plan) rendered JS-only with no content returned; prices sourced from GetApp aggregator (getapp.com) and corroborated by a second GetApp listing — noted in each plan's provenance. Wistia's official page shows only annual billing price; 20% annual discount stated on page, so month-to-month is not published. Brightcove and Kaltura returned 404 on all pricing URL attempts and publish no self-serve pricing per SoftwareAdvice. Dacast shows annual-only rates; month-to-month exists (3-month minimum) but amounts not disclosed on the pricing page. Loom annual rate computed as 17% off stated monthly rate (per official page claim) but exact annual figure not displayed; month-to-month rates used as monthlyUsd with discount noted. SproutVideo pricing page loaded fully with no annual toggle found. Vidyard Starter price sourced from GetApp/SoftwareAdvice aggregators as official page returned no dollar amounts. All plans with contact-only pricing have monthlyUsd=null.
