What you get with Fiuto
A plan that stays free, a team that never counts seats, and the measurement methods a question list can't cover.
A free plan, not a trial that needs a card
Fiuto's free plan needs no card at any point and renews every month: 1 live study, 10 responses per study, 600 AI credits and every one of the eighteen methods. AI is metered by credits and never gated by tier. Versive's pricing page offers a 14-day trial, and its FAQ says you add a payment method to begin.
Collaborators, not seats
Price is per account, never per seat. Share a study, its findings, its readout and its deck with as many collaborators as you like on every plan, including Free. Versive's pricing page lists 2 editor seats on Pro and 5 on Team.
Where people click, and what a page says in five seconds
First-click, five-second and preference tests, click heatmaps and copy tests sit beside card sort, tree test, matrix, ranking, rating scales, open text and live site and prototype tasks. Eighteen method blocks, mixable in one study, on every plan. Asking where someone would click is not the same measurement as watching where they do. AI interviews are an upcoming feature.
MCP and API on every plan, including Free
Fiuto's research assistant works in the app, in your coding agent over MCP, and over the API. From Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Lovable, v0, Replit or Bolt it creates, launches and reads back studies, with nothing held back for an Enterprise tier. Your data is yours: raw CSV and JSON export on every plan.

BoltWho fits which tool
Fiuto fits small teams that keep growing
New people keep needing to read the findings, and you don't want to think about who has a licence this month. Everyone reads everything on every plan, and the bill doesn't move when someone joins.
Fiuto fits people for whom research is not the job
You're building the thing and you have a question you'd rather not guess at. Fiuto drafts the study, runs it with AI respondents and real people, and hands back findings and a deck, in hours, from a free plan that needs no card.
Choose Versive if you're buying seats for a fixed research team
You know exactly who will edit studies, you'll license a seat for each of them, and the rest of the company doesn't need to open the results.
Choose Versive if a forty-question AI-moderated questionnaire is the whole job
Your study runs to forty questions with branching and quotas inside one moderated instrument today. AI interviews are an upcoming Fiuto feature.
