Basic doubles images to 300, raises video to 5 minutes, and removes capture-count limits; annual billing costs $150 ($12.50/month). Business costs $400/user/year, raises one capture to 2,000 images or 30 minutes, and adds floor plans, measurements, reports, and team library. Enterprise requires 3 seats, so its effective entry is $3,600/year.
