Feature ledger

Side by side, line by line

Our column is Professional at $17.99, the tier that carries AI transcription and call recording — not the top of our range. Their column says where each capability sits in theirs, so this is mid tier against mid tier. Showing our best against their cheapest is the trick this cluster exists to call out, and it would be a poor page that used it.
