Ruttl Pricing 2026: Plans, Per-User Cost, and a Simpler Alternative
Ruttl has three tiers. Basic is free and caps you at 1 project, 5 pages and 10 comments. Pro is $18 per user per month and lifts those caps to unlimited. Business is custom-priced.
Guests — the clients and reviewers you collect feedback from — are unlimited on every plan, so the people commenting never need a paid seat. Only people on your side do.
Ruttl plans and prices

What the free Ruttl plan actually gets you
Ruttl's Basic tier is genuinely free, which is more than several tools in this category offer. But the caps are tight: one project, five pages, ten comments. Ten comments is roughly one review round on one page of one client site.
That makes Basic a fair way to see whether the tool fits your workflow, and an unrealistic way to run client work. If you review real projects, you are on Pro — so Pro is the number to plan around, not the free tier.
The second thing to internalise is that Pro is priced per user. That is good news if you work alone and bad news the moment a second designer, a project manager or a developer needs their own account.
What Ruttl costs per year, per seat
Per-seat pricing means your bill is a function of your team size, not your project count. Here is what the listed monthly price adds up to.
Straight multiplication of the listed monthly per-user price. Clients and reviewers join as guests and are unlimited on every plan, so they never add to this number — only people on your team do.
A simpler Ruttl alternative for client review
Ruttl is a big toolbox. If your job is narrower than the toolbox — getting a client to say what they want changed on a website — most of what you pay for sits unused.
dotts is built for exactly that job. Paste a URL, share the link, your client clicks straight onto the page and comments. Every comment carries an automatic screenshot plus browser, OS and viewport, so vague feedback stops being your problem. Unlimited reviewers are included, and the free plan is meant to be used rather than admired.
- No per-seat maths — unlimited reviewers included
- No client login, no plugin, no extension
- Live sites, staging URLs, PDFs and images in one place
- EU-hosted and GDPR-first, with Copy for AI and the doby AI MCP server for your editor
To be fair to Ruttl: it covers more ground than dotts — websites, web and mobile apps, PDFs and images, with Slack, Trello, Asana and Jira integrations. If you genuinely need that spread, $18 a seat is a reasonable price for it. dotts is the better fit when you want the client-review part to be simple and the bill to be predictable.
