Why people look for a Dovetail One alternative
On November 6, 2026, Dovetail launched Dovetail One. The entry plan, Bronze, is $4,800 a year for the platform and up to five users, plus AI credits at 15 cents each, billed annually. Silver and Gold are priced with sales. If you're a solo researcher or a small team that wants to analyze interviews and surveys without an annual platform fee, that's usually when people start looking around.
You want to start for $15 a month, not $4,800 a year.
You'd rather have a simple monthly plan than pay for platform, users, and credits separately.
You want a published monthly price, not an annual fee plus a credit meter.
You want AI to do the first pass of analysis.

You don't have to start your research over. If past work lives in survey exports, spreadsheets or recordings, bring it into InsightLab and analyze it alongside anything new you run.
Import surveys, CSV files, and more.
Upload interview and call recordings to transcribe and analyze.
Auto-generate themes, then edit and export theme boards.
