Key takeaways
- PageProof has no free plan. Its Team plan costs $249 a month flat, billed monthly.
- For a team of five, per-seat tools can cost less. Five Flekh Essential seats cost $35 a month, billed monthly.
- PageProof lists "social media" as a file type you can proof, but it does not publish. Flekh publishes the approved version.
