Low monthly entry and API on every paid plan; free codes stop at 500 scans and codes stop if a plan expires.
Flowcode
Codes keep scanning if you cancel; analytics stop counting after 500 scans on Free and 6,000 on Pro Plus.
Scanova
Analytics with no time limit from its Lite plan; no free dynamic plan, and codes need an active subscription.

What We Hold Constant Across Every Comparison
We believe comparison pages should be factual, verified, and verifiable by the reader. Here are our editorial principles:
- Prices quoted directly from each vendor's public pricing page, with the exact month checked.
- Every competitor fact links to the page it came from, so you can check it yourself.
- Cost examples use a stated scenario and each vendor's own published prices.
- Where a competitor is genuinely better suited for a niche need, the comparison explicitly states so.
