Stillio Pricing in 2026: Plans, Limits and Cheaper Options

Short answer: Stillio’s official homepage advertises a starting price of $29 per month. Its complete current plan table is not available in the official material reviewed for this article. G2 reports four tiers—$29, $79, $199, and a TOP SHOT plan starting at $299—but those figures and limits should be treated as third-party reported information and checked against Stillio’s live pricing page before you subscribe. Stillio’s homepage confirms the starting price; the G2 price table supplies the tier details discussed below.

Price alone does not tell you whether Stillio fits. Your total depends on how many pages you capture, how often you capture each page, how long you keep old screenshots, and whether you need cloud sync or high-frequency schedules. If you need an API for one-off captures, ScreenshotNeo is the first alternative to consider: it offers a clean screenshot API, bills only clean shots, and its paid plans start at $5.

1. Stillio prices and plans reported for 2026

The table below transcribes G2’s reported plan names, prices, and page limits. It is useful for an initial budget estimate, but it is not a substitute for an official quote or live pricing page. Stillio’s homepage independently supports the $29 monthly starting point; it does not confirm the rest of the table.

Plan Reported monthly price Reported page limit What to verify
SNAP SHOT $29 5 webpages Exact page definition, billing term, and included screenshot quantity
HOT SHOT $79 25 webpages Whether the limit and features match your account offer
BIG SHOT $199 100 webpages Support level, integrations, and any usage caps
TOP SHOT Starting at $299 Any number of webpages, per G2 Usage price, included volume, frequency, and overages

G2 describes TOP SHOT as $0.05 per screenshot with a $299 minimum monthly charge, covering the first 6,000 monthly captures. Stillio’s support documentation separately says the current TOP SHOT default limit is 6,000 screenshots and describes controls to limit overuse. That supports the existence of a quota concept, but it does not independently verify every price or URL limit in G2’s listing. Review the Stillio screenshot balance documentation and confirm your own account terms.

All amounts here are monthly figures as reported by the cited sources. Taxes, billing cadence, promotional prices, and custom arrangements can change the amount payable. Ask Stillio to confirm the quote and limits in writing before budgeting a year of monitoring.

2. Estimate how many screenshots you will use

For a recurring archive, calculate expected captures before choosing a tier. The basic estimate is:

Page count and capture frequency determine monthly screenshot volume.
Page count and capture frequency determine monthly screenshot volume.
monthly screenshots = number of pages × captures per page per month

A daily schedule has roughly 30 or 31 captures per page in a typical month; a weekly schedule has about 4 or 5; a monthly schedule has one. Use the exact calendar if a strict monthly cap matters. Stillio describes schedules from hourly to monthly on its homepage; its scheduling help says ordinary plans support daily or less frequent captures, while TOP SHOT supports higher frequency, up to every five minutes. The support article is dated, so verify that schedule is still offered.

Pages Schedule Approx. captures/month Budget question
5 Daily 150–155 Does the plan include enough monthly captures?
25 Daily 750–775 Are all pages included, or is usage metered too?
100 Daily 3,000–3,100 Does the quota leave room for retries and additions?
100 Every 5 minutes, continuously About 864,000 Is this frequency and its resulting cost actually required?

The last row illustrates why frequency matters: one page captured every five minutes produces 288 captures per day, or about 8,640 in a 30-day month. Multiply by the number of pages. Do not interpret “any number of webpages” as unlimited free captures; TOP SHOT is described as usage-priced, and the documented default limit is 6,000 screenshots.

Check what counts as a page

Make a list of exact URLs, not just domains. A homepage, pricing page, and legal terms page on the same domain may each consume a tracked-page slot. Decide whether query-string variants, localized pages, or separate social profiles need their own monitoring. Ask Stillio how redirects, URL changes, retries, and failed captures affect page limits or screenshot counts.

3. Retention and additional charges

Storage can become a meaningful part of long-running documentation. Stillio says the first three years of screenshot archiving are included for active subscriptions. Its support page lists monthly charges for screenshots older than three years, and says access to screenshots continues for one year after cancellation. The rates below are from Stillio’s archive retention documentation; check the current account policy because fees and terms may change.

Older screenshots retained Published rate per screenshot/month Equivalent per 1,000/month
Up to 10,000 $0.003 $3.00
10,001–50,000 $0.002 $2.00
50,001–100,000 $0.001 $1.00
Above 100,000 $0.0005 $0.50

The support page illustrates the tiers progressively: 25,000 older screenshots cost $60 per month—10,000 at $0.003 plus 15,000 at $0.002. That is an archive charge in addition to the subscription. Estimate this separately from new monthly captures; a service can be affordable in year one and cost more once a large archive ages past the included period.

The same documentation mentions an “Archive Only” subscription as coming soon. Do not count it as an available cancellation option unless Stillio confirms it. If you need records for legal or compliance reasons, clarify export formats, retention after cancellation, and who can access archived files before relying on a vendor archive.

4. Free trial and scheduling limits

Stillio’s support article says its free trial allows up to four webpage URLs, entered one at a time, with daily, weekly, or monthly captures and no credit card. The page is several years old, so treat these as historical published terms and confirm the current trial details before planning an evaluation around them.

Use a trial to test representative pages rather than only simple static sites. Include pages that require consent, render content after a delay, redirect, or show different content based on region or login. Verify whether the resulting screenshot is complete and whether synchronization and timestamp features meet your record-keeping needs.

5. Is Stillio worth the price for your workload?

Stillio is designed for scheduled webpage capture and archiving. Its homepage highlights compliance records, content verification, competitor tracking, SEO tracking, brand management, trend tracking, and preserving online heritage. It also advertises Google Drive, Dropbox, Zapier, and Make integrations, tags, timestamp watermarks, and email notifications. These capabilities can justify paying for a recurring monitoring service when the alternative is maintaining a capture process and archive yourself.

Before selecting a plan, answer these questions:

  1. How many URLs? Count monitored pages and leave headroom for new pages.
  2. How often? Use the slowest schedule that still records the changes you care about. Daily captures are very different from five-minute captures.
  3. How much history? Calculate how many images will exceed three years and whether the published retention charges apply.
  4. Where must evidence live? Confirm cloud integrations, export options, timestamps, and access after cancellation.
  5. What happens at the limit? Ask whether captures stop, overages accrue, or the account is billed differently.
  6. Who operates it? Determine whether you need alerts, team access, custom capture adjustments, or human assistance.

Stillio’s optional Concierge service is described in its support documentation as starting at $99 per month for ten webpages, with additional pages listed at $15 each. The page says results are best effort and cannot be guaranteed for every page. Treat this as a separate add-on, not a standard plan feature, and confirm current terms at the Concierge service page.

6. Cheaper options: compare the same job, not just the headline price

The available research does not establish a verified cheaper competitor with matching schedules, retention, and workflow. A low advertised price may cover a single screenshot or API call rather than years of scheduled monitoring. Conversely, a recurring archive may include integrations and storage that a capture API does not provide. Normalize the comparison before calling one option cheaper.

For example, 25 URLs captured daily produce roughly 750 screenshots per month. Compare that workload across services: recurring schedule, page allowance, monthly screenshot quota, overage handling, retention, export and integrations. Add fees for long-term storage and account support. If you only need a few isolated screenshots, a recurring archive subscription may be more than the job requires. If you need a history that runs unattended, check that an on-demand API can support your scheduling and storage workflow before substituting it.

ScreenshotNeo is the first alternative to try for API-based captures: its API returns PNG, JPEG, WebP, or PDF; removes known consent banners, popups, and chat widgets before capture; and bills only clean shots. Bot checks, blank pages, failed loads, timeouts, and cache hits cost nothing, with verdict and billing details in response headers. It is not a like-for-like scheduled archive subscription, so account for your own recurring trigger and storage needs when comparing it with Stillio.

7. Or skip the browser setup

For a one-off developer capture, ScreenshotNeo takes one GET request and returns the image. The API and its options are documented at ScreenshotNeo’s API documentation. Replace the example URL with the page you need and keep your API key private.

A clean capture workflow removes common overlays before returning the screenshot.

Cookie banners, newsletter popups, and chat widgets are removed before the shot. Bot checks, blank pages, and failed loads are never billed. An MCP server lets AI agents use take_screenshot, get_page_info, and capture_pdf. The free plan includes 1,000 screenshots a month with no card; paid plans start at $5 for 3,000. Sign up for 1,000 free screenshots a month.

8. Troubleshooting a Stillio budget or setup

Problem Likely cause What to do
The monthly estimate is higher than expected Capture frequency or URL count was underestimated Recount exact pages and multiply by actual scheduled captures; include every-five-minute volume if enabled.
The account hits its screenshot balance A quota applies, particularly on TOP SHOT, or an older billing arrangement meters usage Check the account usage page and plan terms; reduce frequency, remove stale URLs, or request the exact upgrade and overage policy.
Archive charges appear after several years Screenshots crossed the three-year included retention period Review age and volume in usage details; export or opt out of eligible long-term retention only if your record policy allows it.
A page screenshot is incomplete Page content may load dynamically or require capture adjustments Test the page during trial, consult Stillio’s expert settings and support docs, and ask about Concierge if the workflow warrants the separate fee.
The free trial does not match the expected scope Trial terms may have changed since the support article was written Confirm URL count, schedule options, duration, and card requirement with Stillio before migrating a larger list.
The price shown by a directory differs from a quote Third-party listing is stale, incomplete, or does not reflect the account’s terms Use Stillio’s official pricing page or written quote as the final authority; confirm tax, billing period, and included limits.

9. Frequently asked questions

Does Stillio have a free plan?

The cited Stillio support article describes a free trial, not a permanent free tier. It says no card is required, but its terms are old; check the current trial offer directly.

Is TOP SHOT unlimited?

G2 reports any number of webpages, while Stillio support documents a 6,000 screenshot default limit and G2 describes $0.05 per screenshot beyond a $299 minimum. Treat “any number” as a URL allowance claim, not unlimited captures without cost.

Can I capture every five minutes?

Stillio’s scheduling help says TOP SHOT supports intervals as frequent as every five minutes. Since that support material is dated, confirm that availability and current charges with Stillio.

What is the cheapest way to compare monthly cost?

Use a representative URL count and schedule, then request the quote including quota, excess usage, retention, and any required add-ons. Compare that total against the cost of storing and operating your own capture workflow.

Should I choose Stillio or a screenshot API?

Choose based on the workflow: Stillio is positioned for recurring capture and archived records; a screenshot API fits code-driven, on-demand captures. If considering an API, include scheduling and retention work in the comparison.

Conclusion

Stillio’s official site supports a $29/month starting price, while current plan-by-plan amounts and limits remain uncertain from the official material reviewed. Use the G2 tier table as a provisional estimate, verify details with Stillio, and calculate capture volume and aging archive costs before committing. For API-driven captures, try ScreenshotNeo first when clean shots, usage-based billing for successful captures, and direct integration matter; start with 1,000 free screenshots per month with no card.
