Arcade vs Better Proposals

Arcade creates AI-generated product videos, visuals, and interactive demos. Users can build a Brand Kit from their website, add product context, generate content with prompts, and edit it with AI assistance or manually. Finished videos can be exported as video or GIF, embedded on a website, or shared by link. Listed integrations include Amplitude, Clearbit, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, HubSpot, Intercom, Mixpanel, PostHog, Product Hunt, Salesforce, Segment, and Slack. Arcade offers desktop downloads for Windows 10+ and macOS Ventura 13.0+, and its download page says users can record and share interactive iOS app demos from a phone. The Free plan includes one seat, one published demo, one published video, 200 AI credits per month, and unlimited views. Growth costs $42.50/user/mo (annual) and includes up to 10 users, unlimited published demos and AI videos, and 800 AI credits per month. Arcade says customer content is not used to train AI models; Enterprise customers can request zero data retention.

Better Proposals is a web service for preparing and sending proposals and other documents, with built-in electronic signatures, payment collection, and client activity tracking. Its analytics can show whether a document was received, opened, read, forwarded, downloaded, or signed, as well as time spent on individual sections. Users can take payments through documents and proposals, with integrations including Stripe, GoCardless, and PayPal. Advanced CRM integrations are available for HubSpot and Salesforce. The service supports custom branding and offers more than 260 free document templates. Teams can assign roles, manage access and permissions, track progress, and control who can send documents. Signatures are stated to comply with EU and US electronic signature legislation. Proposals are designed for phones and computers, and the service is accessible wherever there is an internet connection. Starter costs $13 per user per month when billed annually and allows one seat and 10 documents each month. There is no free plan; a 14-day trial requires no credit card or cancellation.
