The honest version

Where Frill fits

Frill and Looph agree on the important thing: don't charge per person. Frill's entry plan is $22/mo billed yearly ($25 monthly) with unlimited admins and unlimited tracked users, which is a fair deal. Looph's Starter is cheaper at $19/mo, or $190/yr billed yearly but caps admins at 3 and voters at 1,000. Frill caps active ideas on its entry tier and, below its $149/mo Growth plan, sells gated/private boards as a separate Privacy add-on; Looph has no post cap and includes a private board from Starter.

What Frill does well

  • Frill does not charge per person, and neither does Looph: Looph's members are free on every plan.
  • Frill's interface is deliberately simple and quick to set up.
