Best for: Browser-based webinars, demos & virtual events
Last updated: September 05, 2026
Livestorm runs live, automated and on-demand webinars, product demos and virtual events entirely in the browser — attendees join with no app to install, its most-praised feature and a real fix for webinar drop-off. Setup needs no technical skills, and built-in registration, reminders and engagement tools (polls, Q&A) make it a favorite of B2B SaaS teams. The honest catches are structural: attendee-tier pricing climbs steeply (a 500-seat plan costs far more than the $99 entry), the free plan is too restricted to evaluate properly, sessions are time-capped on standard plans, and — for the price — it lacks advanced AI, automation and white-label.
STARTS AT
Free — Pro from $99/mo
There's a free plan limited to 30 attendees and 20-minute sessions, then Pro from ~$99/mo for up to 100 attendees (annual billing cuts that ~20–30%). Business and Enterprise are custom-priced by attendee volume, features and terms. The crucial thing: the Pro price climbs significantly as you raise attendee capacity — a 500-attendee plan costs far more than the $99 entry — so price Livestorm on your real expected audience size, not the headline starting figure.
It's Livestorm's most consistently praised feature. Attendees join through a standard web browser with nothing to download or install, removing the single biggest source of friction and drop-off at the start of a webinar. No app, no plugin, no IT hurdles — people click a link and they're in. For public-facing events, demos and lead-gen webinars where every extra step costs you attendees, that frictionless entry meaningfully improves show-up rates versus tools that need a desktop client.
Yes — it's particularly popular with B2B SaaS companies. Teams use it for product demos, customer onboarding, thought-leadership webinars and virtual events, supported by registration pages, automated reminders and engagement tools like polls and Q&A that help capture and qualify leads. Because it handles live, automated and on-demand formats, you can run a webinar once and let it play on-demand as an evergreen lead magnet. If your marketing relies on webinars to generate and nurture pipeline, its ease of use and browser-based access make it a strong fit.
A few. Pricing scales steeply with attendee capacity, so large audiences get expensive fast, and the free plan — capped at 30 attendees and 20-minute sessions — is too limited for a proper evaluation. Standard plans also cap session duration. More surprising for the price, Livestorm lacks advanced automation, AI tools and white-label options, its analytics are fairly basic, there's no real-time translation or subtitles, and the mobile version has fewer features than desktop. None of this breaks the core experience, but weigh audience size and feature depth first.
The free plan lets you try the interface but is deliberately limited: up to 30 attendees and 20-minute sessions. That's enough to see how easy setup is and how the browser-based join feels, but too restrictive to run a real webinar or evaluate performance at scale. Treat it as a hands-on demo rather than a workable free tier. If webinars are core to your marketing, plan to move to Pro quickly and size the plan to your expected attendee numbers rather than relying on the free limits.
B2B SaaS companies, marketing teams and events teams that run webinars, product demos, onboarding and virtual events and value a frictionless, browser-based experience their audience can join in one click. It suits teams wanting easy setup, live plus automated and on-demand formats, and built-in registration and engagement tools without technical overhead. It's a weaker fit for organizations needing advanced AI, deep automation, white-labeling, granular analytics or multi-language support, and for very large audiences on tight budgets, where the attendee-tier pricing becomes hard to justify.
